Attention Chief Delphi. This is a public service announcement.
When referring to the piece of workshop equipment, vise is spelled with an S.

Vise, also spelled Vice, device consisting of two parallel jaws for holding a workpiece; one of the jaws is fixed and the other movable by a screw, a lever, or a cam.

Hm, looks like it should be pronounced "vize"
And then there's the word "solder"...

My wife and I were watching the tournament selection show and they announced the Utah Runnin' Utes, and my wife asked me the golden question: "what is a 'ute'".

While we're on the subject...
You can align many things in FRC. However, an ALLIANCE is made up of ALLIES. When you join and ALLIANCE, you ALLY yourself with that ALLIANCE. ALLIES ALLY with one another, not ALIGN. You are in an ALLIANCE, not an ALIGNACE.
(c'mon guys, its not even close.)

Yeah, the 2 yutes.
I happen to be from Brooklyn so don't you all be acting like I'm a gavone from over on Avenue N (Bensonhurst)! :yikes:
They make some great NY pizza over here.
(Never judge a book by it's cover or take for granted their circumstances.
I also had a home in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn, NY (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheepshead_Bay,_Brooklyn) and Newark, NJ on Bergen St. (http://www.nj.com/essex/index.ssf/2014/09/authorities_investigating_third_newark_killing_in_ less_than_48_hours.html) which, other than some random craziness, was actually usually pretty quiet.
Now I live in Mount Olive, NJ which if you Google Map that right now you get the Seward House (http://www.nps.gov/nr/feature/places/photos/13000977.jpg) instead of the pictures of the park, or or the 'castle' on Budd Lake, (http://s3-media1.fl.yelpcdn.com/bphoto/G9IiqaSlJE-uSSZtK4HwTw/o.jpg) or just about anything that isn't falling part :D)

And maybe some sympathy from the refs too (I'm a little salty about ACC refs but I'm getting over it).

Well, I suppose an alliance could align their robots with each other. I suppose that could be called an alignance?
For all in tents and porpoises, it's the same.

Dick Vitale is a known Duke basketball fan....and, IMO, Duke basketball gets too much TV time.

Back to back posts, even! Now I have to sauté some wurst in one of my iron skillets (with onions and peppers, of course).

The vise president of our club desided mechanum would be a great thing for this years game. Might be a little hard cause I heard teams have had trouble with multi-direction drive when programming with Java Script but I think we will be fine.

Okay, I've got another one. People, it is a cheval de frise, not a chival de frise. I don't mind so much when teams get this wrong, but when the defense coordinator gets it wrong I start to get worried.

My 9th grade English, French, and Engineering teachers all simultaneously had heart attacks.
See my post signature section for more ways to cause listeners to groan - In other words, more ways to activate listeners' prejudices.
Things that unnecessarily activate other people's (potential employers, etc.) prejudices are often worth avoiding.
