Eddie Doyle - the real "Cheers" bartender - gets laid off
You know things are bad when something like this happens...

Boston's real-life 'Cheers' bartender is laid off

BOSTON – Eddie Doyle was the guy who really did know everybody's name.

But after tending bar for 35 years at the Boston tavern that inspired the television show "Cheers," Doyle has been laid off.

The bar's owner says the economy is to blame.

2. My favorite 'How's life treating you?"
and Norm responds, "Like a baby treats its diapers!"

I've used that many times myself over the years.
