It's a good thing I quit drinking when I did.  Prices of cocktails are getting higher than the patrons these days.

I don't think it's gotten this pricey in La Crosse yet but $10.00 to $15.00 cocktails are becoming pretty standard across the country.  An article on the Yahoo! finance page says New York cocktails run from $18.00 to $25.00 a drink.  I remember the days when you could drink all night for $25.00.  I don't remember much but I remember.
