A quick recap of the week
Here are a few highlights from the past week on AOA:
+ We gave away tickets to see Lewis Black at The Palace by asking: What's something in the Capital Region that gets you agitated or fired up?
+ Sean asked about favorite fall hikes.
+ AOA has a new advice columnist -- Miss Pearl -- and she took on questions about moving from Albany, and meeting new people.
+ What was up in the Neighborhood this week: miraculous human synergy, defending Albany, red light camera arguments, Kaaterskill Falls, the Ragnar relay, New Hampshire, a toilet paper holder emergency, faith in the pizza universe, Next Door Kitchen & Bar, Public House 42, breakfast before apple picking, salad, supermarket shopping, mini hot dogs, and another duel with the car dealer data industrial complex.
+ We gave away tickets to see author Chuck Palahniuk at Skidmore by asking: If the Capital Region -- either the whole area, or one specific part of it -- was a novel, what would its title be?
+ Lauren checked out Saratoga National Historic Park.
+ We got a look at a new exhibit at the Albany Institute about textiles -- it turns out quilts were like Pinterest in the 18th century.
And the 2014 Tournament of Pizza, sponsored by Keeler Mini, continued!
+ The first leg of the semifinal involved four former champs facing off against each other with "classic" pizzas.
+ The second leg of the semifinal was spicy.
+ And we crunched the numbers of 174 pizzas from the TOP's modern era.
Here's the whole week all lined up.
