As always, the deadline is Saturday at midnight Eastern unless I've frozen to death beforehand.

Go!

Mikey: "The team is going to be steamed if we don't find it"

Mikey: "Still think it's gonna be a water game this year?"

Jimmy: "Sure! Frozen water!"

You shovel 16 tons and what do you get?

Another day closer to the robot being shipped.

I really hope someone knows that song

Back in my day, we had to CARRY the crate to the FedEx store, three miles away, in the snow, uphill both ways. You call this bad?

GaryVoshol
10-01-2011, 08:18
Wouldn't it have been simpler just to build a new crate?

Billfred, you just have to get to school before it starts snowing. Then when you're trapped, there would be nothing to do but have a continuous build marathon, until they manage to dig you out. Be sure to bring adequate supplies of Mountain Dew.

Whose grand idea was it to offer snow shoveling services as a fundraiser? $20 a driveway! Whaaat were they thinking!?!

"Dude, quit landing the snow where I'm shoveling!"
"Dude, that's not me doing it to you, it's you doing it to me and yourself! Quit trying to blame me!"
"Yeah, right! You're the one trying to blame me!"

Distant mentor voice: "You two quit that arguing and shovel faster, or you'll be up on the roof clearing that off after you're done! And if you argue about that, you'll be breaking up all the ice on Lake Ontario!"

This is what happens when Frosty the Snowman and Old Man Winter are BFF. We need to provide both of them with a crash course in Gracious Professionalism before Ship Date next year. Seriously.

Yeah we know it.

I guess Billfred's not a Captain & Tenille fan (see previous entry...:-(


FIRST you get the snow, then you get the power, and then you get the women.

All speculation about a water game may now be put to rest. The 2012 game will feature water, albeit not in its liquid state.

I posted my entry before reading anyone else's. So no, I wasn't copying anyone. And yes, we do spend too much time on CD; we're starting to think alike. :eek:

"Dude, we've shoveled all the parking lot, all the walkways and now the loading dock. When do you think the teacher will cool off?"
Teacher: "OK, you can stop shoveling and I don't want to hear any more ideas about launching the mini-bot up the pole."

This is what happens when your snow-blowing robot breaks down. Freshmen, grab your shovels!

This is where their past robots have been cryogenically frozen, only to be cannibalized in future seasons.
