That's wild. You would think that it would have made world news, but no, we get to hear something more about the "balloon boy."

Not here, we got about two minutes and that was it luckily.

That hail sounds very interesting, a shame the idiotworks, opps, I mean networks didn't show a bunch more on it.

Another thing I noticed after watching the video was a link about Tony Blair being President of Europe.
