Because, apparently, I'm the source of random trivia for many of my acquaintances, here's a neat short bit I found on cocktail umbrellas.

Also, by the way, Don the Beachcomber came up with the first zombie, a cocktail so strong he limited most patrons to two on a given day -- it has three or four kinds of rum, including 150 (or 151, whichever). That's how it got the name -- a friend of his had three and didn't remember his vacation of three days that started just after the drinks.
