    Hmm. I'm going to need a very fast car, a driver and a gun capable of taking down weather balloons at a distance. Social networking or a man with a rifle, the race is on! #darpanetworkchallenge

    @AmphetamineCrown: Great idea. But where does one find an 8 foot weather balloon? [www.biginflatablethings.com] here we go- if you're willing to spend $92 on a 8 foot red weather balloon... #darpanetworkchallenge

    @AmphetamineCrown: 8 foot red weather ballon - $92. 100 ft of Pennant Tethering Line - $18. Crushing the dreams of all your neighbors - priceless. #darpanetworkchallenge

    @AmphetamineCrown: "Balloons will be in readily accessible locations, visible from nearby roadways and accompanied by DARPA representatives. All balloons are scheduled to go on display at all locations at 10:00AM (ET) until approximately 4:00 PM (local time) on Saturday, December 5, 2009."

    So where are you going to pick up the costume for the DARPA rep? #darpanetworkchallenge

    @doomonu: Do *you* know what a DARPA rep looks like?

    Didn't think so.

    Don't think my neighbors will either. #darpanetworkchallenge

    Interesting..... There was a giant red balloon on the side of Rt. 80 East in NJ this morning, somewhere around exit 53... I'd be more specific but I'm way to hung over to think straight #darpanetworkchallenge

    @yayforjam: "Registration begins on December 1, and the balloons will appear on December 5."

    What you saw is just a example of Weird NJ. #darpanetworkchallenge

    I will not settle for anything less than 99 red balloons! Or anything more, come to think of it. #darpanetworkchallenge
