With Christmas Eve falling on a Monday this year, this is, in effect, a LONG holiday weekend and as a result, folks are headed out of the city faster than Jeff Gordon racing around Daytona Speedway. Towing luggage, gift bags and bottles of cheer, travelers are braving the elements and gridlock traffic to make it home in time to share Christmas with family and friends.
While many of you will be away for the next few days, we'll still be around to serve the needs of those who didn't make the trek home or maybe call Manhattan "home"; Of course, we'll also be around for those tourists who invaded our fair city to do their shopping and touristing (did I just make up that word?).
Anyways, before I go, I just want to wish the following BREW CREW members a Very Merry Christmas with a list of must-have gifts for next year:
T-BILL: A 2008 New York Times Crossword Puzzle Book for hours of word-solving fun during football games.

And finally, while you are enjoying the holidays with family and friends, if you are looking to catch a movie, I highly recommend JUNO, starring Michael Cera and Ellen Page; Also featuring Jason Bateman and Jennifer Garner, this quirky comedy reminds me of a cross between NAPOLEON DYNAMITE and LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE.
I promise, you'll enjoy it!
