America doesn’t produce much these days. Our cars suck and even Wall Street is a scam. Our only true GNP product is fat people and fuck-ups. None better than the father of the Colorado balloon boy.
Police were alerted to the potential danger of a 6 year-old boy somehow seeking a wizard of oz escape from his flatlands TV existence. His father said the young boy was in the sky. The news media and police believed him. The wreckage landed without the boy. No body. No habeus corpus. The kid was hiding in his room.
Safe and sound to the chagrin of his father.
“The little shit should have flown.”
Damn right.
One of the ten commandments stated that thou shalt obey your father and mother or some bullshit like that.
Little boy was too smart to fall for that shit.
Safe and sound in his closet.
No matter what his old man thought.
