I was really wishing that Geraldo Rivera was at the balloon landing site to open the hatch.

3. You want a joke? How about reality? Ed Schultz has been interviewing
the woman who switched places with Mrs. Heene on Wife Swap.

It's nuts!

... because his parents are going to kill him.

14. Balloon Boy Twitters

@princessangela (channeling Kanye West): Yo Balloon Boy, I'm a let you finish, but Anne Frank had the best attic hideout spot of all time

@andylevy: I'm not saying this whole thing was a hoax, but UP comes out on DVD on November 10.

@BrentTeichman: So all along #balloonboy was really #hidinginaboxinthegarageboy ? Who knew?

@mscourtneyryan: why didn't they look all over the house for #balloonboy first? *facepalm*

@ms_eliza: Figures...the famewhore gene is indestructible.

@PeterTheApostle: So missing #balloonboy was in box in attic all the time. I once hid in a large wine jar for 5 days & no one missed me.

@AaronKlein: #Balloonboy is found in his garage. "Uh...mom and dad are looking for you, man. Oh yeah, and Katie Couric called."

@alex_mpe: Maybe #balloonboy was sick of dealing with parents that are obsessed with WEATHER. So he got in a box. I find this sensible.

@SashaStaXXX: #balloonboy just played hide and seek with the whole country

@dnasher: Congrats #balloonboy, you got your nutcase family in the national spotlight for the second time

@BtotheD: Somewhere, Baby Jessica's all grown up, smoking a cigarette and chuckling to herself, "Rookie."

@agedsage: #balloonboy wins Nobel prize for Hide and Seek

@TeresaKopec: Husband just got home. Had to explain #BalloonBoy to him from scratch. Sounded kind of dumb like that.

@ChrisParry: Update: Best Boy, Bubble Boy, BAll Boy, and Frisch's Big Boy vote to remove Balloon Boy from Boy's Club.

@friedmanjon: Maybe tomorrow we can all watch some empty bags blow around for a few hours on CNN

@emmywosebud: Balllloon boy is so grounded!

@HunterDK: Now if a shark had been in the balloon with the boy, THEN we'd have a story.

@ChrisParry: Please, someone at Pennsylvania Child Services make sure the Gosselins don't place any orders for helium balloons. I'm serious.

@CaytonHolland: No one gave a when I put that BLACK boy in a balloon and sent him off into the sky. You're just so damn predictable, America

@jonathanfowlie: How was TV so quick to the balloon-boy saga? Apparently one of father's first moves was to call the news: http://tinyurl.com/ykgkzm7

@rainnwilson: For his punishment, that kid should be put in another actual balloon and let go to float away, his screams echoing off the rockies.

@friedmanjon: I'm gonna be Balloon Boy for Halloween. Basically, I'm not going out.

@EscapePodFilms: If you take the Millennium Falcon out of the box it's less valuable!

@nowever: Hey Falcon! The movie was called Up! Your audition =fail.

@WinkNudgeNudge: Looks like somebody has been selling his Ritilin to his brothers again.

@IamFALCON: hey everybody its me falcon ,,,sorry for everything will you guys forgive and follow me?
