   When you use multiple loops - like a custom loop in your side bar, it may overwrite your main loop... After troubleshooting where the problem was occurring and trying rewind_loop() unsuccessfully I found that starting a new loop would do the trick...

   while (have_posts()) : the_post();
      //the_content() was getting overwritten when by itself
      //but when enclosed with the while() statement
      //it works properly
      the_content();
   endwhile;

   This works, but Im not sure if this is best practice, if you have any follow up suggestions feel free to post...

   Great... wp_reset_query was the answer! Thanks much...

   http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_reset_query

   <?php wp_reset_query(); ?>

   or

   <?php
   query_posts('posts_per_page=5');
   if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post();
   	?><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><?php the_title() ?></a><br /><?php
   endwhile; endif;
   wp_reset_query();
   ?>
