By now, you have all heard the word "Balloon Boy", or you know the now infamous Heene family who hoaxed the entire world into believing their six year old son had been taken off by a helium inflated, weather balloon. Well, we now know that it was all planned and rigged by the child's wannabee celebrity whore parents. I think this family has stooped to a new level, and should be brought up on charges for child endangerment, among other things. The world stopped for a moment to join with the parents, as concern mounted over the safety and well being of their child. Not to mention, the law enforcement agencies; local, state and federal who came to aid this so-called distraught family in an effort to help them retrieve their son. I personally should sue them, because I was traumatized at the thought of a six year old being up in the sky, alone, in a weather balloon. I was further traumatized when the balloon came down with no one in it. This real life drama was brought right into my own home. I was on pins and needles until I found out the boy was safe. The Heene's have some serious esplainin (Ricky Ricardo accent) to do. If they place such high value on entertainment, and no value or concern for public safety, they deserve the swift kick in the but that they are going to get. They have angered many people in law enforcement and this is far from over. I guess his ploy to become famous has worked - well, infamous at least. He will forever be associated with this silly stunt. Last I heard, The Heene's now have an attorney to try and throw some ice on the hot water they are in. I'm going to file this one under, "stupid, stupid, stupid."
