'We can never have luck without a cat on board' he said. If this were true, the crew would have been better off with a different cat. "
The story, about what goes up, must eventually come down, perfectly weaves the tale of the rise and fall of nearly every subject in the story.
I got today's information from:

Look up Melvin Vaniman – his artwork and what he did before getting on these ships is a whole other story that someone else can tell. He climbed skyscraper poles to take photos, he was like, a stunt cameraman before getting into dirigible business! And there is a famous photo of him with Kiddo the “lucky” cat – he didn’t look unhappy given how upset he was with the cat at the beginning of their journey. I’d like to think they made up before parting ways.
