A twisted tale of inflated hopes, breathless anticipation

It took just a little more than 4 seconds for John Cassidy to grab a balloon, stretch it, inflate it, tie it and twist it into a sculpture.

The Montgomery County magician stretched, inflated, tied and twisted, over and over, until he had a pile of 747 colorful balloon sculptures at his feet at the end of an hour Wednesday.
