Falcon Slideshow

If you happened to miss the whole story of Falcon Heene and the Runaway Wife Swap Zeppelin yesterday and don't have the time to run through my whole, link-rich exegesis on the matter, I can offer an even briefer take on the matter. Courtesy of DCist music editor and blogger Amanda Mattos comes a wonderful artist's rendering of "The Great Saga Of Falcon! The Balloon Boy!" I think it more or less captures the story precisely, in 6000 words' worth of pictures. Please enjoy:
