jcollie719...and found several stories posted to Twitter about a 6-year-old Fort Collins boy who floated away in a blimp-shaped balloon. One poster called it a "floating bag of Jiffy Pop." Some of the posts said the kid had fallen out.
EDIT: I just read the balloon has landed, but the boy was not in the balloon. I'm watching the news right now. Authorities now believe the boy may not have been in the balloon to begin with. Hopefully he can be found safely.
Some good and bad things about my nap:
BAD: It was delayed about a half-hour by the condo maintenance crew clearing leaves with noisy leaf blowers and interrupted later by the same work.
GOOD: The delay allowed me to get over 20 minutes of exercise on my stationary bike.
GOOD: I was not awakened by telemarketers or charities calling for donations.
BAD: I was not awakened by one of the businesses where I applied for a job.
