Hey, '19, "no, we can't dance together." That's because it's now 20-20. Only Steely Dan fans will get the entire meaning of this. Everyone else will think we're crazy, but we're just growing old. Any way you say it, it's "Good bye hey '19 and hello to the Roaring '20s."

English Lutheran Church, 111 Grove St., will hold a New Year's Eve service, according to Rev. Kevin Mohr, pastor.
The informal service takes place at 11:30 p.m. and concludes with all attending helping to ring the church bell at midnight to ring in the new year.
The service includes hymns, prayers and readings.
