While I usually don’t find myself getting caught up in the national media and the story of the week, I have to say I find the drama surrounding the boy who was thought to be carried away in balloon to be quite interesting. Not that the story or characters involved are particularly intriguing but that it looks as if the entire family scrapped game night on Friday and had a scheme night instead. Just as Seinfeld has it’s Bubble Boy, Falcon Heene will be tagged as the Balloon Boy for the rest of his life.
