They are at it again!

My instinct tells me the best solution would be a heavy iron object to the back of that girl's head.

Funny, my instinct is usually more sensitive than that, but generally trustworthy.

so yesterday while at my cross country meet someone pulls up in a 7-series alpina, can you even get a hold of one of those in the US? it was a pretty big meet, we had kids from colleges and out of state but still, an alpina?!

That must have been good to see.

Are you sure it wasn't just ebay emblems?

How's your 5k time?

that's the B7, and yes, they're available in the US, probably cost much more than 100k though

I see four B7's on ebay.

Just a wee bit out of my price range.

Turn on CNN! There's a 6 year old boy floating around Colorado in a helium balloon!

The balloon seems to be losing altitude. At one point he was @ 5500ft, now it's down to 900ft. They're following it with a helicopter.

Alright, the boy wasn't in the balloon. Now they're saying he must have fell out, but nobody knows where he is

Hopefully he ran and hid after untying it.

The other possibility is too gruesome to think about.
