I actually have some good suggestions. I hope you like them. Sorry I didn't post these previously..

Girl:
Katherine
Sarah (the traditional "daddy's little girl" name)
Hannah
Annabelle
Christine
Natalie
Andrea (pronounced "ahn-dray-uh")

Boy:
Justin
Tyler
Michael
Raul, Joe, Ken, Bill, Nick, Dean, Woodie or Andy (had to list some people there! hey, they are good names.)
Toby (as in Tobias)

The other thing I wanted to tell you was that I really like your robot design, it looks small and simple- two good characteristics. I never expected that (or pretty much any other design) but I can't wait to see you TechnoKitties in action. What, less than two weeks left before we go and sweep West Michigan? :)

Tell your team I said hi. I hope you guys play as good as you look :)

-Erin

Erin,

Thanks for the name suggestions. We'll see how it turns out. We've got a while to decide, but who knows, it may be a name that was suggested here in the Forums. The chief (my wife) doesn't like my suggestions so far for a boy: Buddy, Bubba, or Sneckie.

As for robots, we would sure like to see what team 65 has in store for the rest of us... I suppose that we'll have to wait until West Michigan.

See you then!

Andy B.

Andy,

I don't have any suggestions for the name of your baby,
but how about this suggestion? Hold an auction on
E-bay for the RIGHT to name your baby.

With as famous as you are and as famous as the
TechnoKats are, you could probably rake in the big
bucks of this prime bit of "real estate" ;-)

It would not only be a good fund raiser for your team,
it would make a good "personal interest" angle to pitch
to the Chairman's Award judges.

Run it by the Chief (Mrs. Baker) and get back to us
soon. Remember, this is a property that has a time
value to it. You have to MOVE on this one if you want
to capitalize on it.

Let us know what you think.

as much as it would help a FIRST team, that seams very morally wrong. i'm sure you are joking. yes, you must be.
