Ok. So my thoughts of the balloon boy in Denver was right. A hoax.. a scam.. a publicity stunt.
This guy ( the father ) is dying for attention and he got it. The story reached world coverage ( as he hoped ) and he is in a lot of trouble for pulling a stunt like that .
Not only criminal charges but now the F.A.A are looking at charging him as well for the costs of the "rescue".
At least his kid was honest in the interview :
" We did it for the show!".
Got to love a kid who knows the truth... on national TV to boot.
I mean let's look at it. The balloon could not hold a child in that compartment , as the father claimed. Aluminum foil and duct tape with a flimsy structure... the kid would have fallen out right away.
He loved the coverage he was getting and is now paying for it.

Now this is hillarious:
A guy in Cheyenne Wyoming was arrested the other day for possession of counterfeit currency.
Seems the fella hired a stripper for a private function and rode with her in a cab.
When it was time to pay, the guy gave the cab driver a wad of $50.
The cab driver and the stripper noticed the bills looked odd and were not evenly cut ( clue number 1 ).
Police and Secret Service ( they investigate counterfeit currency crimes ) charged the man.
The guy claimed he printed them off his home printer but was really going to pay with real cash ( sure ya were ! ).

On another note: Do I really look like a SKYSHUTTLE driver? Two nights in a row now I have been asked what time I plan on leaving, as passengers point to a shuttle bus.
I AM NOT A SHUTTLE DRIVER..NOR DO I LOOK LIKE ONE ! My uniform should really spell it out.
Maybe I should stop going outside at that particular spot.

I don't know what this guy feeds his 9 week old puppy but last night I was ready to vomit.
This guy has a 9 week old beagle. Really cute little thing. The puppy "dumped" his load all over the blanket in his kennel and the guy was cleaning it up.
He looked like he needed help so I offered to watch his dog while he cleaned up ( I am gagging even as I write this ).
The puppy was playing around all around me on the floor, when the signs started popping up.. where is a good spot. OHHH SHIT !! YUP ! A sudden squat and FIRE IN THE HOLE ! Incredible. And disgusting too.
I have no idea what he feeds the puppy but it can not be good whatever it was.
poor thing.. and then there's me running outside to get fresh air so I don't puke one out.

The Toronto School Board is at it again. First they segregated the black students and formed a school called l "Africentric Alternate School" and now they want to form another school for boys only.
This is getting ridiculous. First the blacks have their own school, now the ONLY BOYS have their own. What's next are the gays ( can't wait to hear the title for that one ), the Muslims will want their own as well.. and it goes on and on.
Here we are a country that is supposed to be diverse. We have an abundance of multi cultural citizens and are told to be anti racial, anti discriminate , anti this and that.
And here is the Toronto School Board wanting to seperate everybody.
Talk about segregation and the sorts and yet no one is out protesting that this is a form of RACIAL / GENDER discrimination.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pisses me off to think history taught society that seperating boy and girls in schools, as well as blacks and whites was nothing more than unconstitutional and yet here we are creating schools for this group or that group. Makes me sick to think that Rosa Parks and all the other folks fought like hell to be allowed in ANY school they want.
Here are a group of people fighting the State and U.S government to be allowed to attend a school of their choice.
The Supreme Court heard the case and ruled it was unconstitutional to not allow "colored people" the same rights to an education as any other American.
At one point in our racial history, blacks were only allowed to ride in the back of a public bus ( Rosa Parks story ), blacks were not allowed in restaurants.
THE GOVERNMENT OVER RULED ALL OF THIS.
And here we are in Canada.. well Toronto anyway. and they are segregating every one.

That;s all I have today.. more tomorrow.
