Know Your Drink


A guy walks into a bar and makes a complete ass of himself...
     Is this the beginning of a dumb bar joke? Sadly, no. It's just an observation and one all men need to avoid. Every man can do himself a big favor and learn the skill of bar etiquette. Yes, there is such a thing. Believe me, one sure way to get your "man card" revoked in this lifetime is acting like a confused rube when you walk into a bar.
     You've seen the guy before. He stands in front of a bartender, pondering his drink order. Clueless. Unsure. Indecisive. This is totally unacceptable. A man needs to own the transaction when he approaches the bar. Speak to the bartender so he can hear you. Don't speak downwards. Lift your chin, and make eye contact.
     Being a man now is ordering with confidence and saying it quickly. Men need to know their drink. Mention the brand, the amount and the way you like it served. For example: Grey Goose vodka, double, neat... Simplicity at it's best. So, what'll you have?
