I remember when the goodyear blimp was the only one around. I live near Norton AFB which is now the San Bernardino Airport. They have some sort of Blimp test/mechanic/storage thing. I see blimps close to every day. They are very strange. Metlife, Monster.com cellular people all have blimps.
I want to ride one. Hot air balloons? How do you steer? scary.
