Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #422

This is why you no longer hear the Hamster Dance song (http://www.webhamster.com/). The last hamster was taken out by a 9/16 wrench by 422's mechanical lead.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #422

In an epic tribute to Lucas and Shelley, 422's students have done the impossible (or at least never attempted) - combining hamster interior with robot exterior. They call it DARTH HAMBORG!

good thing the phrase "when hamsters build robots" never caught on... though pigs are flying now so that one doesn't work anymore.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #422

Huh, of all the things my team thought of to try to speed up our work during build season, training hamsters to turn wrenches never came up. As a matter of fact, it's more probable than a lot of the ideas we did come up with, and thus bears being brought up this coming year.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #422

Can you imagine the discussion taking place at the ad agency when Grover suggested a hamster would make a great ad campaign for Snap On Tools? Just think of the possibilities! How about a tool competition with the Geico gecko, the Eveready bunny, or the penguins from Madagascar?

It's a little known fact that Lrrr, the leader of planet Omicron Persei 8, started out in FIRST.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #422

This was the only way to stop the pit crew from forgetting to pack that all-important 9/16" wrench, short of glueing it to the toolbox.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #422

Compared to the endless grind of running in the hamster wheel, helping team 422 is a dream come true. And carrying a big (9/16") stick gives such a "power rush" that just doesn't get old.

A forgotten character from "Lost In Space", here's the Class M-3 Model B9, General Utility Non-Theorizing Environmental Control Robot's pet hamster.

The last thing the hamster remembers saying was "Toss me a 9/16" wrench"
