I too enjoyed reading this again. But now I wonder if there is sequel that goes something like this:

The Bar Keeper, and his wife start enjoying more and more vacations, celebrating the fact that they can charge $100 (now discounting the trade to $80) for $20 of beer, with overhead of another $25. However, their desire for the finer things soon outstrips their Cash Flow, and so they ask a Rich Uncle' Caretaker for advice. And that Caretaker says that everyone, even those without income but having some small nest egg for the future should unconditiionally and unquestioning "bail them out" by asking for $70 from those savings and serving no beer when that is collected. The Caretaker says that some stale popocrn from the bar could be somehow distrubuted to those that never saved for a popcorn maker. Another Caretaker asks that he take the arrows from the Cigar Storm Indian figure in the Bar to gove to some friends that are Martini drinkers.

I'm not sure where the story goes after this as everyone's avlue goes down, except for those that start colelctingthe Bar's Beer Mugs that are now unused somewhat dirty and pershpas some are chipped.
