Last week's lost Boy Scout coverage spurred our news site's traffic to heights we hadn't seen since the Eastern Guilford fire.

Until today.

Last night's arrest of Sidney Lowe II and the subsequent coverage today kicked the numbers up another notch.

Both stories went national. Both tracked breaking news stories that changed throughout the day. Both involved males who are/were lost. There the similarities end. Insert your own metaphor for what it means.

Due to recent automated spamming attacks on our blogs, we are temporarily requiring commenters to authenticate themselves via TypeKey® before posting comments to any News & Record blog in order to prevent denials of service. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.
