[mp3] all spiffed up and looking ideal

I think I first heard about the Balloon Man from Fluxblog a few years ago. Here's all I can tell you: forty years ago, Bill Morrison had a 'difficult' stand-up comedy act involving balloon animals that was briefly successful, and in 1971 he recorded a bunch of one-minute "bio-vignettes" hoping to get them on radio. It didn't happen, though in the years since he has spent a decade or two as a cult figure on California public access TV. The mp3 below is three of those vignettes strung together, and if you listen to it... well, I can't promise that if you listen to it you'll never be the same. But if you DON'T listen to it, then you'll ALWAYS be the same, and who wants that?
