In comment #1, Kieth Hemstreet's post on Aspen taxi-jacking puts post blogger Mitch Mulhall into a Richard Reid state of mind, "One of the attendants poured a bottle of water over Reid, who was then restrained with passengers' trouser belts, plastic handcuffs, seatbelt extensions, and headphone cords," Mulhall writes. "A doctor on board shot Reid with a dose of Valium from the on-board medical kit. For the rest of the flight, passengers of varying sizes kept Reid restrained, one of them by keeping a taught grip on a fist-full of Reid’s ponytail. Escorted by Air Force fighters, Flight 63 was diverted to Boston’s Logan International Airport, where Reid was taken into custody... Then again, maybe getting your ass kicked in Aspen by a taxi passenger is nothing like that."

I can’t remember the last café I ate at in Aspen that I had contact with and was served by the owner of the place.
Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who's the fairest apres-ski hangout of them all. The Sky Hotel's 39 Degrees in Aspen will do quite nicely, thank you. "We no longer have to imagine what lies beneath the long underwear," writes Concierge.com. "The very steamy hot tub just outside the Sky Hotel's bar, 39 Degrees, is open to both guests and drinkers. And you'll also find both bump-bashers and snow bunnies stripping down to their Escada and Prada bikinis and trunks to frolic around the bar, the heated pool, and the ten-person hot tub, with its mosaic of blue ceramic tiles."
