If you are headed out tonight to celebrate, plan ahead. The cops will be everywhere.

In Denver, if money's an issue, the Frank Sawaya law firm will pick up the tab for your taxi. Just send your receipt with a photocopy of your driver's license to: Holiday Free Cab Ride Home Program, The Sawaya Law Firm, 1600 Ogden St., Denver, CO 80218.

Sawaya says his offer, now in its 4th year, is offered on New Years Eve, July 4th, St. Patricks Day and Halloween. It costs the firm about $20,000. a year.

    it's five degrees out and going down to 9 below. I'm headed out now for a few hours, but after that, it's back indoors by the fire until tomorrow.

    You have a happy and healthy new year too!

    ...to be out in this frigid cold and snow tonight!  

    Everyone I've talked to is planning on staying home--where it is warm and dry--to celebrate the New Year.  

    I'm trying to decide if it is worth it to venture up to the roof to watch the fireworks downtown (early edition).  It is already too freakin' cold out there...

    Judging by that lovely mansion that Frank's practice is housed in, I'm guessing he can afford the 20K a year.  Nice of him to provide the service--a cab ride is much better than a DUI.

    A Happy, safe, fulfilling, healthy New Year to all the TL'ers!!!
