just a few weeks ago i had a couple of celebrities at the bar.  they drank all 
night, and got their liquor 'comped' by the house.  but they drank bottle 
beers, not any high end liquor.  they tipped a dollar a beer all night.  
nothing special, but every beer i served them, they threw me a dollar.  

i can't complain.  i will take that all night long.  i think most bartenders 
would appreciate a dollar tip for every drink served.
