These guys are media hounds...But likely harmless...Their Dad being an amateur scientist is a kick. I like that part.

There are worse things to be I guess, like a couch potato that lives for ball games on TaaaVaaa.

Drudge is labeling it a ‘hoax’, but the link that he provided does not say that...

It’s going to be interesting to hear the full story on this. It cost a lot of money chasing that empty balloon around.

found something kinda interesting with all this going on...One of the local(Fort Collins) websites said Henne residence on Fossil Ridge Road. went to Google maps, searched that location...a break in the street view on Fossil Ridge....probably in front of Falcon's garage.

Neil often talks about his kids. I think he has two or three little ones. Two little boys for sure.

At the end of the show he mentioned that his kids are high spirited but not quite that high spirtied. He also said they get it honestly cause he was also high spirited, but his dad kept him in check, as he keeps his children in check.

You know, we can always look 20/20 in hindsight at a situation and say: all of this commotion for nothing? But, at the time, you go with the best information you have.

And for the people accusing the parents of a hoax, the sheriff stated the parents were obviously, visibly, distraught.

I am very happy.

I now think every person involved in the search should get one healthy swat on little Falcon’s rear-end.

Must have really been a slow news day when the coverage from all these networks follow a balloon around that is owned by a group of ‘’storm trackers( hmmmmm where da muny cum for tat job?) who didn't have the sense to watch there kids properly enough. Why was there so much empathy expressed toward these parents. Why aren't the kids taken away from these people, they are really in a dangerous enviorment.
Sure, the kid may have been in the balloon, but to have wall to wall coverage ??? I guess now that the litterman incident has passed, we need to focus on another minor news story. God forbid the news should cover some of our servicemen/women in harms ways or show some of fallen hero's returning( odd that it stopped after big ears was elected)

The parents may kill ALL three brothers today, but just think of the laughs they are going to get twenty years from now.

"Just got an automated call from the Larimer county Sheriff that search and rescue is in the area looking for a 6 year old boy. I’m in very south east Fort Collins area and there are helicopters flying in the area. They must be moving their search area."

I just got another automated call from the sheriff, the boy has been found, no other details. But from reading this thread I see he was found alive, thank god!

They were described by folks on "wife swap" as "nut cases"

Bush’s fault that the boy was hiding.

Obama found him! Time for another Nobel Peace prize.
