Cocktails you said?

Per the Request of Several Avid Readers:

Bar Trick:

Match Trick: Take a match from a book of cardboard matches. Print H (heads) on one side and T (tails) on the other. Tell a bar guest that you will toss the match in the air and if it lands either heads or tails you will buy him a drink. However, should it land on its side, he must leave you a big tip. Here's how it’s done: Just before you toss the match in the air, bend it. It will always land on its side and you will always get a big tip or a large part of your face beaten in depending on the bars you frequent.
