And now the news

Here's a pretty good pair.

It's a cluster, alright. A fella from Oregon is going to fly to Idaho this weekend. Not very notable, except that he's going to do it using 150 giant helium balloons attached to a lawn chair. He calls it cluster ballooning. It's his third attempt to accomplish this meaningless feat. I'd say he's a poor man's Steve Fossett.

The site does not indicate who their hairstylist is. A lot of people have emailed me to ask how they could get the prarie dresses popularized by the women from the Texas polygamist religious sect at the center of that child custody battle. Ok, no one has emailed me to ask that. But if you did, I would direct you to the new FLDSDress web site, where you can get dresses, overalls, trousers, and edible underwear. One of those things was a joke.

Hope the fella makes it. Cluster ballooning is a dangerous sport. Just ask the Brazilian priest.... well, if you could still ask him....
