Enough With The Balloon Hoax Story Already!

[Bantu]

Local news stations, CNN, Fox News, MSNBC, CNN Headline News, Entertainment Tonight, Extra, etc etc. Why are we constantly being bombarded with this outdated story?! I have started watching the Food Network for distraction.

I was in Colorado the day this happened. I agree....enough already!

I would like to point out that this is the first post on FreeOnes that I know of concerning this story.

I was even going to post a congradulations to everyone for not mentioning it.

Christ.

Yeah, I think it was the one where Eddie Haskle and Cartmen untied the balloon as Beaver, Kenny and Butters got in the basket... Kenny fell out of course.


Hey, what's the chances that this week's South Park is going to have the balloon hoax in it?

I don't know, but if they do I think I know how Kenny will die.

"A Ticklish Affair" in '63, A widow's son goes flying attached to some weather balloons, a navel officier borrows a blimp to rescue him.

Boy was I glad to learn the boy wasn't in the balloon. There for awhile it seemed like maybe Michael Jackson was trying to order takeout from heaven...

Not very good, this week is a WWE theme episode. Maybe a future episode will touch on the balloon hoax.

You have to admit that when the kid disses Wolf Blitzer, it was pretty funny.
