You Can Celebrate Your Birthday Without Those Things

A terrible fire forced a mother and two teenage children to have to jump off the roof to safety. The cause of the fire? A Mylar balloon. The balloon floated from an unknown location into the electrical wires outside the home, the wires sparked and fell onto a metal fence, and it set the house on fire. Apparently, this is not as uncommon as you'd hope. Power outages are fairly frequently caused by party balloons drifting onto power lines. Maybe they SHOULD be banned after all. (Bergen Record)
