Default Bottle stopper

Here is a bottle stopper I tried, then after viewing Lynn's site and how to cut the neck off a bottle I think this kind of finishes him off.
His name is Mick, the bartender and perhaps he has heard another sad tale that bartenders hear every night.

I think that you got the bartender part just right. Looks like he's heard every hard luck story on the planet. Great job and thanks for posting him.
