A long time AA member named Joe R has lived to a very old age and one morning God appears to him, as Joe lies in bed.
Joe: What have you come for God?
God: Well Joe, I’ve come with some good news and some bad new, what do you want first?
Joe (being an optimist): I like to start the morning with good news
God: I have come to tell you that we have AA meetings in heaven
Joe: Alright – that’s great! So what’s the bad news?
God: You’re chairing tonight’s meeting….
