Since this is the 'Rumor Mill', I'll stir things up a bit:

I heard a while back (at kickoff) that there **might** be a movie in the works about FIRST. This rumor included a popular actor, Noah Wylie, to play the part of a lead engineer on a FIRST team.

I know that it takes a while for these things to develop, but if it is true, someone's gotta know more!

So, if you got info... throw the rest of us a bone or two!

lets do some casting...

I think that Ben Affleck could probably pull off a reasonable representation of me. :) :)

Colleen, you are too kind!

Sarah Michelle Gellar would do fine as Colleen Shaver.

She can be nice when she wants to, but when it comes to bashing 'bots, then she can kick some butt!

Joe should be played by Woody Harrelson, and imagine the Dew royalties. Were talking about sponsorship deals big time here. $$$$$$$

speaking of dew....

Dr. Joe-

your kids (as in the ChiefDelphi family) say you are 'infamous' for the outrageous amount of dew you drink.

how many kids (as in your home family)was it you said you had?

Jim Carrey for Joe J- a good choice.

-Erin

p.s. dew studies have nothing to prove.

How about Bridges? Not Jeff,but his dad (forgot his first name) from the original sea hunt series. He was great in some of those crazy Leslie Nielsen movies.

Beau Bridges? Isn't that his name?
Movie sounds like it would be good... but couldn't it be a documentary?
Hey- who's going to play Erin from team 1?


If any of you say that woman from Drew Carey with the blue eyeshadow, I will cry.

ok, lets just make this a little bit more sane for all of us.

I will be Jennifer Aniston (no arguments, I called her first.)

Andy can be tom cruise.
Colleen can be Courtney Cox-Arquette
Lora can be Lisa Kudrow (sorry if you don't like her Lora, I think she is adorable.. even though her hair is blonde and your is brown)
Anton can be Jet-Li..
Mr. Martus can be some really prestigeous actor like Tom Hanks...
The rest of you can pick out of the remaining 3 'Friends' (not including the monkey)...
Dharma and Greg..
Tom Green...
Matt Damon...
The cast of 'American Pie', or 'American Beauty'..
the cast of 'Scream 3' (that isnt already taken)
the cast of any of the 'halloween', 'scream', 'elm street' or '13th' horror flicks (these movies and the 6 week period begin to mirror each other around that last week)...
Sandra Bullock...
Roseanne...
Gwyneth Paltrow...
Angelina Jolie...
Natalie Portman...
(no one wants Leo, do they?)
the cast of Moesha...
the cast of 'Dawson's Creek',
the cast of any 'Naked Gun' movies,
the cast of any 'Saturday Night Live' past present and future
the cast of Wayne's World(which somewhat coincides with the last one)
the cast of the Godfather (am I the only girl that PRAISES that movie?)
the cast of 'Goodfellas' (sorry I couldn't bear to leave Ray Liotta and Robert DeNiro out)...
anyone who works at MTV or has ever worked at MTV (excluding that Jesse guy and Jenny McCarthy, PLEASE!)
Who will play Dean Kamen?

Oh and by the way, I had a really interesting and fun time at the SMC plant in Auburn Hills today. I got to bring a whole bunch of neat stuff home :)

That was the peanut gallery's babble for the day.
