Hey, guys I ve been reading alot of the messages that have been on the forum, yet I have no idea who is writing them. I think it would be cool if team members from other teams could get to know eachother before the competitions. That way we have an idea of hows going to be there. What do you guys think.:rolleyes:

I'm Stephanie (duh ;)). I am a rookie on team 668 The Apes of Wrath. I'm pretty much an all around worker, but my specialties tend to lie in base and strategy. I spend way too much time at school, of course. Other hobbies of mine include gardening, and wasting time online :-D if you care to talk, PM me or AIM at Steppie86 I'll be at the Sillicon Valley Regional and Nationals, and will be visiting the LA regional, I'm not sure if I'll do anything unique as far as appearances go...

I'm not sure exactly why I'm doing this b/c those of you who know me, good for you and those who don't, well, you don't deserve to. Ha! Yea..riight..anyway..I'm Angela Hall and I do the website/newsletter for my team. Umm..I'm a Junior and..I dunno..the only regional my team goes to is KSC which is over so I guess I'll have to see whoever wants to see me at nats. Dont' go to the pit looking for me, b/c they usually have no idea where I am. I'm the short dark-haired girl who looks like a 12 year-old. If you're really bored, AIM me as usfanh. oh, one last thing..my nickname is Fish of Fishy..long story..

Hey everyone!
Well, I'm Isabel and I'm from team SPAM (180), as you can probably tell. Like Angela said up there, we only go to KSC so you'll have to go through the agony of waiting until Nats to meet me if you haven't already. :D
If you want to find me, just ask someone on my team, we're the obnoxious ones with the blue Superman-esque shirts. Or if you're too lazy to find me, I'll come find you.
Oh yeah, and since I don't have a life, please feel free to contact me through AIM at screenname IsabelRinging26. :)

Hi.....
I'm Clark Gilbert and I'm addicted to Segways :p
Student Mechanical Lead guy, TechnoKats, blah blah blah....
:D

Maybe you should start Segway-aholics Anoymous :D

Hi Im D.J.
and Im addicted to Hockey
Student Lead Electrical...and like clark said..and so on
Hi, my name is Jeff Wetzel, an I am a FIRST-a-holic.
Really.
I relate everything to robotics.
All my friends are on my team, or on another team.
I am tring to figure out how to get to other regionals.
(Silly parnets who think sleeping in my car or a tent isn't safe...)
But I might get to go to LA becuase my grandparents live 20 minutes from the venue! :-D
I refer to things, and people are confused because they forget that I just refer to FIRST.
I spend 8+ hours a day in Tigerbolt chat activly chatting.
I read all the threads on Delphi.
I think I have visited most every teams webpage.
I have begun to look at things like "..oh, that would be an awsome field element for next year..."
And then go on to try and figure out a way to overcome it within the limits of the KOP and the BOM.
I was helping my sister with her mousetrap car, and she asked if she could use ductape, and I reflexively said no.
I tend to organize my life around it.
I get really upset and depressed when I miss a meeting. (Which happens far to often)
I wear my goggles places. When I go on a Home Depot run or to get food.
Also, FIRST has turned my life in a compleatly diffrent direction.
More about me...
My car really looks like my avatar over there on the left.
I will be at nats with black hair with red streaks, its currently 'Camomille', or blonde. Which is its natural color.
Meet people in tigerbolt! Come chat!
irc.webchat.org #FIRSTrobotics if you use IRC
Or the web based applet is here:

*All my friends are on my team, or on another team.
I'm starting to actually discover there are people outside of the FIRST bubble now ;) only took 5 years...
*I am tring to figure out how to get to other regionals.
(Silly parnets who think sleeping in my car or a tent isn't safe...)
Hahaha... that's how I got to VCU this year... I know the rest stops along I-81 quite well at this point...
*I refer to things, and people are confused because they forget that I just refer to FIRST.
Yep... accidentally done that on job interviews... on a regular basis...
*I spend 8+ hours a day in Tigerbolt chat activly chatting.
I created the Tigerbolt Chat last year ;)
*I read all the threads on Delphi.
Used to when things were smaller and I had a team that could use the info... now I just browse around for interesting things.
*I think I have visited most every teams webpage.
Been there done that!
*I have begun to look at things like "..oh, that would be an awsome field element for next year..."
You mean everyone doesn't do that?!?!
*I was helping my sister with her mousetrap car, and she asked if she could use ductape, and I reflexively said no.
Now Wetzel, that's just wrong.... Duct tape is definately something I use in large quantities outside of FIRST! You have to make up for not having it during the season.
*I get really upset and depressed when I miss a meeting. (Which happens far to often)
I used to get irritated at snow days that would cancel meetings (though not all of them did.... I remember my first Feb.. and the killer storm that left ice and snow... I still went to the shop!)
I wear my goggles places. When I go on a Home Depot run or to *get food.
Best time to wear them is in the snow or rain... stops stuff from getting in your eyes. I keep a pair in the truck for days when my tinted safety glasses are too dark for driving, but I still want to keep the windows down but the wind out of my eyes ;)
*Also, FIRST has turned my life in a compleatly diffrent direction.
Amen to that.
Ehh.. so yeah, if you don't know me by now, it's probably safer that way. :D Been adopted by lots of awesome teams - started off as a driver for team 69 my freshman year. Now... well, lets just say I hope things work out and ya'll be seeing a team in the 1000's from Knoxville, TN next season ;)
