Who do you believe?

Posted by glorianeal

The little boy (Falcon Heene) thought to be missing and stowed away in a helium balloon yesterday mesmerized the world; but now that mesmerization is turning to some accusations.  Was this a legit story to begin with or is this a family hooked on media attention? 

Are you kidding me?!  If it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck...it's a duck!  A 6 year old does not have the brain capacity to work out the details associated with pulling something like this off.  Therefore, if you believe that the father was behind this whole thing, you also believe that the 6 year old "gave up the goods" on CNN last night because his brain does not have the capacity to process the information that it needs keep this scenario going. 

The Heene family is no stranger to the camera.  They are also no stranger to doing strange things (like--taking their kids storm chasing; or allowing the kids to curse on a homemade video). Some have said to me "Glo, aren't you glad that the boy is safe?"  Yes, I am but I don't know if he is safe.  I know that he is fine...but if his dad is behind this, he is far from safe.

Update:  The authorities now say they have some more questions for the family.  Honey, I'll keep you posted.
