Haha, nice.

Speaking of blimps, CP and I saw an odd sight this weekend, heading up the 5 towards Dodger Stadium. A bizarre pyschedelic blimp floating through the skies. I snapped a couple shots as it passed (which I have yet to pull of the camera). There were no identifying marks to tell me from whence it came.

2 days later, when I suddenly remembered seeing it, I began some research. I typed "psychedelic blimp" into google — well, I typed "psychadelic blimp" and then clicked "Did you mean 'psychedelic blimp', you inept moron?" link — and lo and behlod, it appeared!



Turns out it's owned by Ameriquest and is linked to "Soaring Dreams", a charity project aimed at giving kids creative opportunities or something of the sort.

Dude's lucky his model blimp didn't look like that, then he probably WOULD have had a heart attack!

On a side note, while poking around the Soaring Dreams website, I came across this list of amazing innovations...
  • The telescope paintbrush for children in wheelchairs
  • The shoe-paintbrush for those who are unable to manipulate a paintbrush with their hands
  • The fruit-flavored paintbrush for those children who can not paint with their hands or feet.
Welcome to the 21st century.
