Coincidence?

Goodyear has developed a new airship for the first time since Minneapolis in '73 became the bid it is today.

It's a combination blimp-zeppelin with a maximum of speed of...you guessed it...73 mph.

Hey, they're even having a name the blimp contest with a day's exclusive use of the new airship to the winner! Deadline: April 4th. I suspect they're looking for something more universally recognizable than Zyx W. Vuts. Hmmm....

Oh, that's just awesome, even if we can't name it.

Cracked me up, you did. Thanks!

Glad to be of service! I literally never see or hear tell of an airship without thinking about that cartoon.
