Default Blimp flying over TV

Walking to mail center in Santiago, saw a blimp overhead. Just curious if there is an upcoming event it is heading to?

It was going South East so I thought maybe Daytona but speed week is still a couple weeks away. Might be some thing in Orlando.

Maybe it was up there just
promoting DirecTV. Lord knows they're doing eveything imaginable to drum up business here.

It could have been me. The diet hasn't been working out too well and I've been a bit gassy lately.

Did the TV CIA club meet this weekend. We'll probably never know, or they'd have to kill us.

The blimps love to fill up here because certain villagers always provide an abundance of hot air.

I saw a chem trail Saturday morning. I'm sure it was the govt gassing us. Now they're in cahoots with DirecTV. They were spying on our pickle ball game at Miona this afternoon, too.
