We just launched the site for our "A Blimp In Every Home" effort, and very soon we will begin accepting payment.

The site is up now to give everyone a chance to check it out for themselves. basically, we're selling some mini-blimps at a price that's small enough for many meetup groups to pool money and pick one up, (hopefully), to try and turn the little mini-blimps into an iconic national phenomenon.

Head on over to the site and it explains more. (This is also one of my more favorite designs I've made for LPA so far.)

If I really want a "mini-Blimp" I'll get one of these (http://www.redrockethobbies.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=MTCA8304&Click=6136) for $80. (Yes, I know it's only 3' vs a 12' mini-blimp)

But whatever... Advertising Ron Paul is what's important.

I said we're looking at several different possibilities... we would just like to push the middle of the road, 5' x 12' if we can.

Stupid question on my part, but ... how do the minis stay aloft?

Jordan, stick with a 200k goal with the meter, counting it upwards

You can fill them up with air but that won't get you anywhere

You need Helium (http://www.weebls-stuff.com/toons/blimp/) to fill that bitch up. It's the second symbol on the periodic table. Oxygen and Nitrogen are way behind it (As chemicals go their both pretty stupid.)

[MsDoodahs]

Isn't helium ultra expensive right now?

I saw something about it on one of the business channels a week (two weeks?) ago...

We're working on that as well. :)

Or build your own 7ft Blimp Sign for under $20. Go to http://www.ronpaulblimpsigns.com for plans. If you have the paint and the 2ft x 8ft piece of board laying around, it won't cost hardly anything. I used some 2x4's I had laying around to mount it. I will recover these when the sign comes down.
