Goodyear's latest and greatest blimp'mobile is complete and ready to settle in Carson, California soon.  "The 246-foot-long ship, named Wingfoot Two, is the second in a fleet of three flashy airships the company is slowly phasing in to replace its 1920s-designed iconic branded blimps."   It is faster, longer, and can move dextrously, like a helicopter can.  One thing that remains the same?  --What goes up, must come down.       news

Attention:  Will the line for those exasperated by politically correct mumbo-jumbo please form down the middle! 
This morning's newspaper headline, "Alleged 'unstable' man ends hijacking" made me crazy!   Let's go ahead and call folk who play around with blowing up planes--for real or pretend--unstable, okay??   Own it, people!
