    I've wondered why it wouldn't be cheaper to use blimps to carry maybe 4 trailers at one time across the country. Maybe they can't carry that much weight; I don't know.

    They are late to the game as Amazon already beat them to the table.

    They can apply to be drone pilots. I'm sure they are smart enough...

    I did not open the link. Was not in the mood to possibly be pranked by another goofy The Onion story.

    But if true, this sounds like some petty stunt a company who feels threatened and embarrassed would do in a desperate attempt to appear relevant when it realizes it's best days are now behind them.

    What could possibly go wrong?
