Yes, that's right dear, pilot a former robot of the soon to be 2006 National Chairman's award winning team, scoring Ian Curtis of the Chiefdephi forums massive points in the pre-kickoff FF league, and making him the evil empire of FIRST v2!

Entry 1:
Girl: "Mommy, why are all those people running away?"
Entry 2:
Girl: "What does this button do?
Mommy: "NO! Don't touch tha...."
The sound of an explosion is heard and it starts raining robot parts.
Entry 3:
Girl: "Mommy, why can't I have and XBox like the other kids"
Mommy: "Because we can't afford it. You're lucky they let us play with their 1999 robot"
Entry 4:
Girl: "If Force equal Mass time Acceleration than I should be able to take this 120 pound robot up to 20 miles per hour and totally run it through that plate glass window."
Mommy: "Errrr. maybe.)

Team 341 wins the 2006 Gullibility Award, not only for being fooled by Lavery twice about the 2006 animation but by this little girl who convinced them she was of high-school age.

Little girl: "Well of COURSE it pulls to the left, the Fisher Price motors have different torque characteristics running forward and backward. Haven't you noticed the asymmetric tread wear pattern on my Barbie Jeep? It's pretty easy to fix. Hello? Ever heard of a PWM variable bias?"

"Remember, you won't get into college if you don't play your video games!"
(if you've seen that V-smile commercial you'll know what I'm talking about)
In yet another stab at fulfilling Dean's vision, FIRST launches a new pilot program, "Preschool FIRST Robotics". PFR (aimed at 3-4 yr olds) allows preschoolers to control robots disguised as Bob the Builders, SpongeBob SquarePants and Elmo to form alliance partners. GP is taught along with EasyC in the classroom.

Mom and daughter comes to visit team 341's demo.
Daughter: Mom, what does the robot do when I move this thingy forward.
Mom: I am not sure.
... Daughter moves that joystick forward.
(in the background one of the team member screaming...)
team member: WHAT DID I TELL YOU GUYS ABOUT LETTING OTHERS DRIVE THE ROBOT.. OUUUUUUCCCCCHHHHHHHHHHHHH... call 911.
Get 'em hooked while they're young.

Take 1:
After the last time they let this girl operate their robot, team 341 took the precaution of reinforcing their joystick box with duct-tape. :) (Is that legal?)
Take 2:
Shortly before the trial run commenced, team 341's safety captain tried to reassure the dubious flock of onlookers. "We guarentee this robot as 100% childproof. Nothing could possibly go wrong." Nevertheless, the crowd made sure to back well away from the border of the 100-yard-radius "testing zone".

Mommy, is this another one of those 90’s nostalgia games you and daddy played with when you were young?

With the addition of this new robot pilot, Karthik's vision of an all-preschool FIRST team (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/showthread.php?t=30947&) was finally realized.
"Yay!!!! Now I can have my two favorite things - strategy sessions and tea parties - whenever I want!!! Did you hear that, Kermit and Elmo??? We have new guests coming! Set the table!!!"

341 was shocked when they heard that 116 managed to start recruiting at a younger (http://www.invisiblerobot.com/robotics/robot_c32/index/p1020892.html) age.

I guess it's safe to say that, given that it's 7:00 PM and I'm just now starting to judge the caption contest, I'm in a real Krunch.
First place goes to:
Wow! My Barbies don't do that!
Second place goes to:
With the addition of this new robot pilot, Karthik's vision of an all-preschool FIRST team was finally realized.
"Yay!!!! Now I can have my two favorite things - strategy sessions and tea parties - whenever I want!!! Did you hear that, Kermit and Elmo??? We have new guests coming! Set the table!!!"
(One side of me really wondered if that was just too weird, even for the caption contest.)
Honorable mentions go to:
1) Koko Ed
2) Jay H 237
3) Wayne Doenges
