I’m sure all of you were huddled around your computers at work, speculating on when it would be ok to make jokes about the appropriately named boy, Falcon Heene, who was allegedly floating above the Denver landscape in a hilariously strange homemade balloon yesterday. Certainly we at atom were (though we all know Falcon isn’t the first hilarious balloon boy). While productivity in offices across the country slowed to a halt (what economy?), the true champions of internet culture were feverishly compiling mashups, videos, and 140 character gems of insensitivity to keep us entertained for the remaining 15 minutes of this news cycle. In case you were wondering, when the internet looses its shit, its shame is close to follow. Everyone was glad to find that  Falcon is ok, but it didn’t really stop people from cracking jokes well before we knew that.
