I've been watching the Tampa Bay/Giants playoff game that is unfortunately on fox local channels. Has anyone caught the blimp that was supposed to fly over it? I haven't been able to see the whole game and i haven't seen it.:confused:

The blimp folks have alot of explaining to do. enormous amounts of the most populated areas of Florida has not been covered at all.

The blimp is rarely in the air.

The press mentions are nearing zero...

This needs to be explained - the whole issue of resources being drained from local projects has still never been answered. Now we learn that people like "Bryce Henderson, a longtime Democrat in Los Angeles who's the media coordinator for Liberty Advertising, the company that runs the Ron Paul blimp" are involved.

A friend of mine at the game sent me a pic from his phone.

It's in the Air !!!

And by the way, Tampa Bay is the 12th largest city in the nation so it's getting GREAT exposure.

Well, I was foolish enough to turn off my IGNORE for a few people, thinking maybe they had gotten with the program and decided that being negative all the time wasn't benefitting the good doctor. Guess I was wrong. I'll turn it back on.

I'm only negative about lack of execution - in other words you'd be a fool not to read every post. If you'd rather live in happy lala land and lose, I guess you are free to do so, but you have nobody to blame but yourself. I ignore nobody on this board.
