This one is kinda tiki related considering I found it inside my Trader Vic Bartender's Guide when I bought it!

From the St.Louis Post Dispatch - Monday January 20, 1958...

"Author Freddie Schwed tells about a playboy who ordered drinks for everyone, including the bartender, in a swanky cafe and the confessed he didn't have a dime. The bar-keep gave him a black eye and a heave-ho. Next night he reappeared, ordered drinks for everybody and again admitted he was penniless. This time the bar boss gave him a real working-over before throwing him out. Back came the fellow a third night and loudly ordered a round of drinks for the house once more. "For me, too?" inquired the bartender.
"Certainly not," said the playboy loftily, "One drink and you're a raving lunatic."
