Balloon Dad believes world will end in 2012:

http://cnews.canoe.ca/CNEWS/World/20...435656-ap.html

"Heene believes the world is going to end in 2012," she said. "Because of that, he wanted to make money quickly, become rich enough to build a bunker or something underground, where he can be safe from the sun exploding."

Please take these kids away so they can have some sort of a normal life. There has to be some relatives that aren't quacks.

as soon as I found out the kid's name was Falcon, I made a quick judgement about his parents. I stick by that judgement. What a bunch of clowns.

Balloon dad believes alien shape shifters run the upper echelon of government.

http://gawker.com/5383858/exclusive-...a-balloon-hoax

"But he was motivated by theories I thought were far-fetched. Like Reptilians — the idea there are alien beings that walk among us and are shape shifters, able to resemble human beings and running the upper echelon of our government."

Events like this remind me of Einstein's quote about there being only two things that are infinite ... the universe and human stupidity, but he wasn't sure about the universe.

No kiddin'. Send 'em to grandma's house or something. Change their names, give 'em a shot.

Speaking of their names...

To me, the name Heene looks like it rhymes with clean. On the "news" they say Heene as though it rhymes with weenie. Kind of fitting I guess, but I wonder what it really is.

At first, I thought that sounded like good, common sense advice . . . . . . as long as your baseline is that we're all going to be immolated on some arbitrary date in 2012.

Then I started to think further . . . . "bury myself in the ground in case the sun explodes."

Then I'm wondering, "How deep does my hole have to be to excape the sun exploding? And how long - aside from forever - do I have to stay there?"

Maybe the right answer is to just believe the sun isn't going to explode and take my chances.

Also, sidebar, what kind of bars do I have to hang out in to find a wife who also thinks the sun is going to explode AND that we can escape by digging a deep hole.

Humanity is ceaselessly entertaining.

Apparently they met in an amateur acting class. I think that's your answer right there.

Hahahahaha! That's beyond hilarious.

Reminds me of the people who are stocking up canned foods "in case the world ends". Well, if the world ends, I don't see how your can of beans is going to help anything.

Sometimes, I hate when I'm right. This is one of those times.

or maybe the guy is just playing the crazy card to get away from the charges that are forthcoming. Either way, this guy has had way too much press already.
