A Pair of Hits [blogs]
Neighbor (if you can see the mountain, you're a neighbor) and fellow AOLer, aenloo took a hit square on the chin in this week's weather:

My first instinct was slow down, so I started to apply the brakes before my brain kicked in. Luckily my brain kicked in about a second later and I took my foot OFF the brakes. That's when the fishtailing started... but we were on a slight decline, and eventually I slid off the road. Normally this would probably not be a huge deal except I happened to slide over quite a few saplings and a whole lot of brush. Indeed, the car had one wheel off the right side on the edge of a culvert, and one wheel on the left side was off the ground because we were resting on brush at about a forty-five degree angle, maybe more. I had one of those movie flashbacks where the people try to move really slowly so the car doesn't plunge off the cliff.

Fellow AOLer syntart dealt us a blow by resigning this week:

After six years at AOL, I am now moving on and have accepted a position as an Operations project manager at Sunrocket, a VoIP provider. I will be providing support on the day-to-day activities of the Operations department, which will allow me to gain experience in a variety of areas and broaden my knowledge of how to run an Operations set-up.

Having worked with Lee for nearly four years now, I hate to see her go. Good luck though!
