Ted Williams -- the homeless man with the "Golden Voice" -- has left rehab against medical advice, less than two weeks after checking in for drug and alcohol dependency ... TMZ has learned.
Our sources say Ted -- who decided to go to rehab earlier this month after a taping of the Dr. Phil show -- left the Origins Recovery Center in South Texas moments ago and is on his way to the airport.
Ted's girlfriend is currently in rehab at the Safe Harbor facility in Costa Mesa, California.
Story developing...
Wait a minute, you mean a story that was pushed to everyone all over the internet turned out to be a crock of crap? Get outta here!
/yawn, saw it coming.
The weird thing is that I’ve known devout non-alcoholics who hid their non-drinking habit. Like my friend Pete who made me promise not to reveal at a party that he wanted only ginger ale in his drink with NO Scotch. He didn’t want it to get around that he shunned alcohol. It wasn’t any moral qualms, it was just that his body reacted AGAINST alcohol.
You are still using, then. You need to get to a Nuts Anonymous Meeting (suggested you do 90 meetings in 90 days), get a sponsor, and work the steps!
Step 1: We admitted we were powerless over legumes -- salted, honeyroast, lightly salted, candied or cajun -- and that our lives had become NUTTY.
Success is only an opportunity away! All the “poor” need to succeed is money, taken from the rich who don't need it and have way more than they deserve!
“Lack of education is why the poor cannot succeed.” Give them that education and what do you have? Smarter criminals and welfare recipients who can work the system much more effectively.
By the way, this was a test. A test for all of America to see in regards to the MSM and the Liberal/Marxist philosophy. But it will not be seen that way.
In the case of Zippy the Pinhead that would be corn nuts covered with Polysorbate 80.
Thank you, Mom.
It's the old "you can lead a horse to water" saying, I guess.
The guy is a creep and a fake. Yeah he is a substance abuser but hei is also a user.
No. Only saw him one time with Matt Lauer (don’t know how that happened) but thought he was conning Matt and his side kick.
Um, I *AM* Zippy the Pinhead, and it's corn nuts covered with Polonium 84.
Sometimes the term “Southern” just screams out at you.....
It's quite natural for your body to go into convulsions after drinking scotch and ginger ale.
Condemns the liberal lie that all poor people would be rich if they were just given things — best of all, at the expense of productive people.
2 Thessalonians 3:10 is timeless wisdom.
The fairy is at the end of its tail. Why is this sack of scum news?
When I first got sober we had a guy in and out of meetings who was a lot like Ted...I promptly told my sponsor we should do this or that for him (I knew EVERYTHING back then!) ..and she said something I’ve always remembered:
“Sometimes you have to love them enough to let them die”...it took me a good many years to understand what that means.

The high cost of low living.
“I say this as a recovering alcoholic of 14+ years. “
Godspeed to you. I truly admire anyone who consents to long term sobriety. All the best.
Hey, it worked for Frank Sinatra.
The booze and cigarettes gave the Chairman Of The Board’s voice that wonderful burnished tone it had.
Yep. Some don't make it so others can.
