Raise your glasses to Angelo Cammarata, a Pittsburgh bartender who is the world's (Guinness-certified) longest-serving bartender and will be announcing last call today, at 95 years of age. He has been serving drinks since the moment (literally) that Prohibition ended. Oh, and he drinks Beam and Coke every day!

"The mixing of whiskey, bitters, and sugar represents a turning point, as decisive for American drinking habits as the discovery of three-point perspective was for Renaissance painting." -- William Grimes
