"That airship was forced to heel"

LOL. OK, DID ANYONE ELSE WHO WAS ACTUALLY THERE VIEW THAT THING ACTUALLY HEELING? Don't lie to us Taxman! Why, late Saturday I saw one of your ships stuck up near the middle of the ceiling. I mean, unless someone else had an airship balloon too. ;)

It was a great fun. I'm sure you did your best with it. But that's why you were in the Navy, not the Air Force.

(I'm in big trouble here, aren't I?)

LOL!

Sure it heeled -- it heeled left, right, forward, backward, up, down, and around and around the room, sort of -- all on command.

Except when I loaned the control box to an awestruck young man who wanted to buzz his buddy at the Young Republicans booth! His buddy slapped the blimp away from him and accidentally knocked my "Abolish the IRS bumper sticker" ballast off of the antenna. Too light, the blimp went to the ceiling and VoC and I had to retrieve it. No problem.

I was in the Navy because Navy pilots do it better!
