Starts at 8:30 p.m. at the Roxie.

So, it's the eleventh hour and you've decided against crushing up a couple of Ambiens into a mug of fume blanc and calling it a year. Instead, you've turned that frown upside down, choosing to see what's happening tonight on New Year's Eve 2008. Good for you. And to help you out, here are some last-minute events for each neighborhood in the San Francisco. Just follow links for more info; they will provide you with more in-depth details.

Mayor Gavin Newsom says that one of his "top priorities is to ensure that every San Franciscan has a safe and happy New Year. Riding Muni is a smart and green way to ring in the new year." (Thanks, Gavin!) And with a firm flick of his wrist, this New Year's Eve, starting at 8 p.m., Muni will be free all night, which is about what it's worth. The free rides come to a screeching halt at 6 a.m., Tuesday, January 1.

Our security guy returns this week with a post about the measure taken before a big event as well as some more answers to recently posed questions.

We came across this video on GooTube for Propaganda New Year's Eve Party at Laszlo, featuring SFist fave Brittanie Mountz doing what she does best. Love the stunna shades, Brittanie! No confirmation on whether or not Mountz was actually there. And no word on what Gaviffer did for NYE, but we're guessing they probably went to bed at 1:30am with the rest of the over-25 crowd. Yawn. Special thanks to Peter Ragone for successfully breaking up Mountsome and ruining the best bit of blogging gold in 2006. We hate you, Peter!

SFist Rita is on vacation, so we're guest-reading the weeklies for her this week. Plus, it's the last weekly week of 2006, so we will be tallying up this year's picks to anoint a Weekly of the Year at the end of this post.

A weekly attempt at keeping the homeland safe. Because if we don't spend every weekend getting drunk to the point of passing out in a corner booth, then the terrorists win. By your humble barrespondent, Drew.
