First – let me start this by saying I truly hope this is a hoax. It was announced the boy is safe and at home by the time I got the the ending of this blog article.

However, this is getting weirder and weirder. There is now a picture showing something that looks like it is falling away from the balloon. The picture is taken by a woman named Lisa Eklund. Doing a Google search I get *about 11,900* results. The top one is for a photographer, named Lisa Eklund, who specializes in weddings. However looking at her contact information she is listed as being in Mount Vision, New York.

So – refining the Google search to “Lisa Eklund”+Falcon – I end up with 1,300 results. The top entry is a Huffington Post article saying Lisa Eklund is a neighbor. So looking for the AP article. I found …

Neighbor Lisa Eklund described seeing the balloon pass.

“We were sitting eating, out looking where they normally shoot off hot air balloons. My husband said he saw something. It went over our rooftop. Then we saw the big round balloonish thing, it was spinning,” she said.

“By the time I saw it, it traveled pretty fast,” she said.

When did she take the picture? Is SHE the one who took the picture?

The power of the Internet sends information around the world in REAL TIME. I first heard of this issue while in a chat room watching daily domain name drops. As soon as I heard this I went to CNN – top story. I checked out Twitter and at that time this issue was six of the top ten trending topics … WOW!!!

Now CNN is reporting there may not have been a basket (there was, there wasn’t, there was, there may not have been …)

But the family themselves are known for more than just this issue. They were on Wife Swap in Season Five and returned for the 100th episode (which I hear was last week? I don’t know, I don’t watch the show~weird, huh?)

and NOW ~ Breaking News ~ The boy is alive, he is at home. Thank goodness the child IS alive – BUT, everyone who was involved in his *disappearance* needs to be beaten. He was hiding out in a box in the attic of the garage. One of his older brothers said he was in a box … well I guess he was

If these were your grandchildren ~ how proud would you feel?

The gist of that which was flying around the web, since this story FIRST broke was: This is a hoax. It is a publicity stunt. When will we know for sure Behavior Never Lies )-:

I am truly glad heartened to know the boy is safe ~ I wonder though, will this type *stunt* be attempted again? By one of the Heene children? By one of the Heene children’s friends? By one of the children who watched the drama this stunt created?

As humans, we are always looking for ways to do things bigger, better, with more pizzaz and more WOW …

What are your thoughts on this subject?

As the world turns more into cyber space, who we are is beginning to be called our “brand” … and with this knowledge – Bad ads can bust your brand.

I was so excited this morning, I received a request to post some text based links on one of my sites.  This sounded like such a great thing   YAY!!!  My empire is awakening … but not so fast Evie … do some due diligence.  This wonder called the Internet makes it far more easier than was dare dreamed just 20 years ago.  By copy and pasting the phrase “We would be interested in purchasing advertising in the form of a text-based advert on your site.” into Google, I got MANY returns.

One of which was this blog.  Bloggers beware: Bad ads can come back to bite you – Computerworld Blogs – Mozilla Firefox.

I very much agree with Dan, when he wrote:  “My advice? Don’t do it. This is about more than getting on Google’s bad side. It’s about protecting your brand, which as we move fully into a Web-based economy will quickly become your most valuable — and most vulnerable — asset.”

As Evie the evil Evelyn and 2emc, and even just plain ol’ Evelyn Conner, my goals are simple; win-win-win+1 … because everyone CAN be a winner.  We are NOT all meant to be world class runners, pole vaulters, bike riders, etc.  We are all to be the BEST #1 WE can each as individuals be, so together we achieve EVEN more ~ We ARE all winners.  Being who I am, when I am, I am where I am to be … but … always do your due diligence, and then using the mind as an adviser ONLY … listen to your emotion Love, Gratitude, Happy … really get into it and FEEL it … Love your emotions ~ they are the human GPS.

Now the sad part in all of this though is the discovery that LinkStar apparently targets websites with little traffic … hmmm, maybe this is not sad at all … maybe this is a wondrous “line in the sand” for awesome wow wonderfilled progress to start being made ~ FAST

What an AWESOME Wow DAY!!!

Started with my first blog of the day GoalBuzz.com … took most of the day, but I did a lot of other stuff along the way.

At the time I published the GoalBuzz blog, my schedule cleared as if by magic and wahLAH I was able to go for a long awaited, much needed walk   Walkation.com

This blog will be worked on more in the AM (I AM

YAY!!!  HaPpY Tomorrow   Today … All of our *goal* is Unconditional Love. ~wip~ (~wip~ = Work in Progress Update when you see that – means I was *working* LOL!!!

Man ~ (or woman I AM AWESOME.  As are you – this I know, for the HaPpY told me so.   ~wip~ LOL!!!  Stop to do something and hours later … what did I have this open for?  LOL!!!  Tools everywhere

So – what is unconditional love?  The love of one for an other (or others) … no matter what.  Period.

Even if they choose to not clean their room, even if they choose to do thing *not right* … no matter what.  Unconditional love is the love of one for an other (or others).  Period.

Now wait, wait, wait … read on … this does NOT mean the one who chooses to not do right (I call it following their HaPpY and it all starts with a Thank You ~ even if only to ones self … shhhh … you don’t even have to tell your self you really did it ~ just smile to your self and say a quick Thank You :*-)

Any way – those who continually choose to *not* do right do so because they do not feel them selves worthy of love :*-( when they are ready they will seek that which I feel is a new paradigm of a Thankful World ) BUT – until entities that choose to make it so you are not able to *unconditionally love* them your best choice for all is to leave them where they choose to stay.  That is their choice.

Choice is the one thing only each of us choose   No matter the topic   LOL!!!  Do you?  Do you not? Black or white or pink?  Don’t like those choices?  LOL!!!! Follow your glad heart and choose … the law of attraction will begin to send out to and attract others who are meant to hear, see, feel, experience, LOL!!! fill in the blank and LOL!!! again

… and share … One by one as we are able to open our selves to giving and receiving love unconditionally (paying it forward to the nth degree :*-)  LOT’s of HaPpY tears today … LOL!!! WhatZup! with THAT!?  LOL!!!  the tipping happens faster, and faster, and faster until THE tipper is reached and they lend their voice to us and we understand we ARE all ONE

Find your HaPpY unconditionally … it IS there.

Love this errand ~ hope we may do it many times more.

Along the way there are so many wonderful sites … and THESE are just from whizzing by while going … uh … the speed limit of any said stretch of US Highway 19 in Florida.  There are so many beautiful things to see – and this is JUST from US 19 … one of the deadliest roads in the United States.

The reason is people drive as though they are the only ones on the road … come on man give me a break.  There are a whole freaking bunch of us   Let’s all get where we are going safely (-:  we got a lotta work to get done

Emily’s is a family style restruarant on US Highway 19 ~ the last time my daughter and I went there the food was good, home cooked style and definately worth it’s value.  Thank you Emily’s for a very nice meal.

Fire Tower along US Highway 19  Please do NOT throw lit, smoking, smoldering, items from your vehicle.  Not only is it illegal – it’s really REALLY stupid and I know you aren’t stupid ~ so thank you   If you still so choose to throw a smoking, smoldering, … you know … then you are just a mean person and mean people SUCK   I hope you do not choose to suck ~ cause I’ll tell ya if you are
