Nowhere as spectacular and again, luckily, no one was hurt and no serious damage; well maybe to the blimp.

That is two, they normally come in 3s.
Comfortably distant from home too, old chap.
Another excuse for a bit of gas-bagging, what?

Yes, it was about 6 or seven miles away.
That's awful, Dave! Did you go over there to take a look?
Gosh Dave, maybe you need to cleanup your act!!

No, I only looked at the pictures in the paper (I don't own a tv), too many good books to read and too many good records to listen to to bother with "the vast wasteland"

I guess that I listen to the wrong kind of music.

Just so long as it's loud enough to cover the noise of aircraft plunging into the ground next door, what?

Do not forget the helicopter in NY.
No can do, Shop. I already forgot?

Chamber music wouldn't fill the bill; however, some Iron Butterfly just might do.

I say, after the airship episode perhaps Led Zeppelin would be more appropriate, what.

Looks like Dave could benefit more with that. "quote:

I was thinking more along the lines of the "1812 Overture"; you know, the one with the cannons. The 1964 Mercury mono recording with Antal Dorati/Minneapolis Symphony is about the best that I have heard.

Can't say I'm familiar with that one old boy. I do heartily recommend the Telarc 1979 recording with Erich Kunzel and the Cincinnati Symphony, however. It comes with a "health warning" for your speakers because of the real cannon (not recommended for headphones).
By Jove, for real classical "heavy metal" though (take note GG), it's hard to beat Stokowski and the London Symphony performing Wagner, what!
