During a 2015 stay at the Night Hotel in the Theater District (Manhattan), I went down to the bar to pick up a couple of Painkillers to take to my room. After the bartender Licensed Mixologist made them, she remembered me from a previous visit and topped off the already made cocktails with more rum.

"How's that?" she asked me.

"Um...that's great, for me, but I don't think my liver's gonna like it."

Shrugs. "So don't tell your liver."

"You're right," I said. "Let's keep this between you and me."
