A quick recap of the week
Here are a few highlights from the past week on AOA:
+ Jess told us about some local blacksmiths.
+ Paul, Sebastien and Upstater sent along some great photos of BalloonFest, Oktoberfest and the Dutch ships.
+ The Other Guys shoot sent a car flying into the side of a bus (on purpose, of course).
+ The Latham Chipotle is scheduled to open in early November.
+ Jennifer sent along pics of what might be the worst parking job of the year.
+ Upstater told us about being dimed by Verizon.
+ Kaitlin went shopping for fall clothing essentials -- for women and men.
+ What was up in the Neighborhood this week: visitors from New Jersey, stalling, true love, Chez Sophie, stinky cheese, cinnamon bacon, apple rockets, wine, supermarkets, Brian Taffe, eggcellence, and bears wearing pants.
+ You might be surprised by which baseball caps are popular in Troy.
+ A few of the items found on Craigslist this week: a purported Picasso, a sweet misfit girl, seductive wing sauce licking and something out of a John Irving novel.
+ Emily asked about bars/restaurants to watch hockey -- and we extended to the question to all kinds of sports.
+ A lot of people mentioned that local McDonald's commercial.
+ And Dawn went mining for diamonds.
