In a year where Balloon Boy took us on a fright of fancy, helium’s never been so hot. But sorry to burst your bubble, Buzz Lightyear, but I think the hundreds of thousands of dollars it costs to create, fill, and parade you down Seventh Avenue could be better spent feeding the homeless during the holiday or hiring Rick Astley to rick-roll a few floats. Didn’t we learn anything from Mr. Stay Puft? Giant inflatables are freaks of nature and bound to give kids nightmares.
Stick a fork in these things, already. (Unless, of course, you want to bust out a blow-up Rob Pattinson, in which case I might be forced to reconsider my position.)

Do they have a Stay Puft balloon? That would be kind of funny.
i'm such a fan of your blog...I worked at Hallmark for many years and this is the antithesis of that. Probably good therapy for me.

Man, to have a super massive size anything balloon coming at you would be freaky.
Most things I can deal with, but stuff the balloons.
I could understand if they had, say, an army of Michelin men. Can we toss the author of the Twilight books in with Rob Pattinson? Seriously, I get all stabby when women my age (and I'm 45) are salivating and revving up their BOBs at the sight of Shark Boy aka Taylor Lautner.
