About a Blimp

Scottie and I went to the beach yesterday. It's about an hour's drive from home, and on the way we saw the Goodyear blimp a couple of times. I pointed it out to Scottie and he asked me what it said on the side. I said "Goodyear." He then asked if they were dropping tires on people. I had to choke back a laugh as I answered "yes, probably." Now that I think about it, I wonder how he knew that Goodyear makes tires? Anyway, the rest of our drive was filled by questions about how much gas it can carry, how high it can fly, if the people can breath up there, if people live on the blimp, etc.

After we were at the beach a couple of hours we saw the blimp again. He asked if it was following us. Well, I cannot tell a lie, so I said "maybe," but I promised him I would keep my eyes open in case they tried to sneak up on us. I'd hate to get a tire dropped on my head.
