If you plan to ring in the New Year safely, without driving a car, please consider riding an Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) bus on New Year?s Eve. OCTA will provide free bus services on all routes between 6 p.m. on New Year?s Eve (Dec. 31, 2007) and 4 a.m. on New Year?s Day (Jan.1, 2008).
For the sixth year in a row, OCTA bus riders can take advantage of OCTA?s 24-hour ?Night Owl? bus services as OCTA continues its efforts to keep Orange County safe while ringing in 2007. The Night Owl service operates between midnight and 4 a.m. through the core of the county on four key routes:
Route 43 (La Habra ? Costa Mesa, via Harbor Blvd./Whittier Blvd.),
Route 50 (Long Beach ? Orange, via Katella Ave.),
Route 57 (Brea ? Newport Beach, via State College Blvd./Bristol St.)
Route 60 (Long Beach ? Tustin, via Westminster Ave./17th St.).
?OCTA offers numerous bus services for new and existing customers and we want to help ensure that local residents can travel safely to and from their New Year?s celebrations,? CEO Art Leahy said.
OCTA currently operates the 12th busiest transit service in the nation, with an annual ridership of more than 68.5 million. It runs over 800 buses on 80 routes throughout Orange County.
Too bad there are not more than four Night Owl bus routes.

I personally do not smell the puke, I usually like it just to make sure that it is a puke.
