It's a bird, it's a plane, it's...Kent Couch?!?!?!?
This story is amazing! Kent Couch from Bend, OR flew 193 miles in a lawn chair! Using 105 large helium balloons and plastic bags of water as ballasts, Couch floated 25 mph in the clear blue sky while his wife and dog followed him on the road below. He flew for nine hours before he landed in a farmer's field near Union, OR just short of Idaho.
Unfortunately upon landing, the wind caught his rig just as he hopped off, and it sailed off without him. It had all his gear on including a video camera recording the amazing trip. If you have seen his chair, click on the picture to head to his website and let him know you found it. There's a $500 reward to the person who helps him find his cluster balloon apparatus.
Thar she blows!

This week's sign that the apocalypse is upon us...
65-year-old Kay Fox was returning to her apartment in KC, MO when two a-holes decided to rob her and take her scooter.
It being her only mode of transportation, Kay is now stuck without a way to get around.

And you didn't even know it was missing...

What does this mean for you? Get on their
website and see if you have any unclaimed property. You can thank us later.
