Ya see . . . the . . . er . . . balloon-thing got . . . well . . . it away from the ground crew . . . and lofted OOS without it's passenger . He was in the "room" making final adjustments to his bladder .


OOS = Out Of Sight for non-av-buffs out there in Upsidedown Land and parts nether .

Hey . . maybe it will sail past NZ . . why not? . . . . . . and youse guys can claim salvage rights on it . I'm sure there's a hefty finders-fee on a US$200,000 gasbag .

Keep an eye to the skies, guys . That kinda $$ would buy a lot of petrol/gasoline .

Wonder if he saw that priest?
