i'm not a geek, i'm a mechanics-nerd who spends way too much time in the shop

i referr to the team as my "second family"

i belive that one can survive on pizza and vending machine food alone

depressurizing the pneumatics system is how i get our robot to make weight

i want to hook my palm pilot up to the dashboard port so i know how much psi we have left during the match

and one statement sums it all up:


There's a life outside of robotics?!?!

But I listen to my parents' music too, so that is geekworthy.
