Before I get to the picture, a slight note. As the start of the post implied, I'm going to The Capital Clash. One of several things may happen with the judging of this contest:

1) I judge it in DC and post it Sunday.
2) I judge it in Columbia and post it Sunday.
3) I judge it in Columbia and post it Monday (under The Billfred Is Working Way Too Much Rule).

Additionally, if a certain challenge is accepted (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/showpost.php?p=397533&postcount=9), things may get a little more interesting. But we'll cross that theoretical bridge when we get to it.

Oh, and the deadline is still Saturday at midnight.

Here's the picture:

(man, I'm so dead when I get to DC)

Go!!

As shown here Jenny Beatty demonstrates that it is ok to wear safety glasses as a hair net. :ahh: :ahh:

*screams in background: NOOOO*
Announcer: Jenny Beatty has been ingesting dihydrogen monoxide, a deadly fluid that is SO dangerous, the victims do not realize they have been struck until it's too late.
*audience gasps*
Yes. We don't even know the symptoms -- but we have noticed a pattern. Each person who has ingested dihydrogen monoxide tends to advertise this deadly fluid in their right hand and give a weak smile. (*zoom in on Ms. Beatty's tired face*)
This could happen to you if you aren't careful! By your anti-dihydrogen monoxide product today (*sponge is displayed on screen*)
--no people were harmed (yet) in the making of this warning --

You better not take this picture. I don't want to ruin your camera again with this water bottle.

(Immediately after this picture was taken, the film was extracted, just in time to escape being drowned by RoboMom pouring water on the camera.)

Mrs. Beatty: (singing to herself) Have water and a smile.

Director: Cut! I said Cut!!! IT's supposed to be a smile Jenny, a smile. Not a smirk... a smile. Let's try one more time... from the top.

Mrs. Beatty: Amanda did... cause the only thing she is good at during a KK competition is Choking.

<obviously not an entry>

I don't recall ever making that a rule (official or not). I've used several over the past year--Heidi's, Ed's, Dori's, and probably a few others I can't remember. It used to be illegal for folks to enter if it was their picture, but even that was never enforced.

Mrs. Beatty: What how'd this water get in my hand?
[announcer voice] We never stop surprising you[/announcer voice= for the uninformed hannaford is a grocery store that has this really annoying jingle whose "punchline" is "We never stop surrrrrprizing youuuuuuuuuuu... Haannnaaforrrdd!!]
Mrs. Beatty [Smiles at Camera and thinks]: Grh. Must be Billfred setting me up for the caption contest. Curse you and your 1337 picture attempt avoidance skills!!!]

(later on trips over wire)

Miss Jenny: Klutzy, but still important!

Hey, wait a second here.....

You all are just jealous because you don't have a wearable file cabinet containing color-coded index cards, earplugs, headset, backup safety glasses (in case I need a pair on my face), breath mints, reading glasses, distance glasses, pens, bandaids, cell phone, business cards and waterless hand cleaner and pins,pins, pins, plus I can store that bottle of water, shove the clipboard in the back flap and have two hands free to strangle, uh, I mean hug Dori.

"Drinking with Ms. Jenny" never quite caught on like "Cooking with Chef Bill"; she took quite a loss on the T-Shirt sales.

FIRST to Show Latest in Attire During New York's Couture Fashion Week

FIRST specializes in bringing the latest in robotics cometition attire to the sophisticated, boutique market and to a clientele with an appreciation for the very best designs, giving the wearer “the delightful sensation of turning heads.” As we've just seen on our model Dean, denim never goes out of style. And here is Jenny, modeling the latest in FIRST Senior Mentor apparel. As you can see here, fall fashions are all about the accessories. Note the designer safety glasses, tetrahedron earring, and NEMO tattoo. Jenny will be sure to turn heads at any competition she attends. Next we have....

With her best "Mona Lisa" smile Jenny asks "anyone have an aspirin, these engineers are driving me nuts!?!". Analgesics being the only thing she forgot to pack into the vest.

As a special surprise for the CD folk who have rumored for months now about having a water game, Jenny decides to give them a special treat by having a round where the robots must stack water bottles. Due to FIRSTs liability concerns about water and electronics this is as close to a true water game as they will allow.
