The safety captain (left) heard the rumblings of the SafetyBots...

..too late to save the unsuspecting wearer of forehead protectors from the 2006 SafetyBot (open mouth), though they did do a very little good against the 2008 SafetyBot (with the large ball) when it tried to knock him out.

Student: "What's that"
Mentor: "It's a Blueberry picker."
Student: "Blueberries are like a 1/2 inch diameter."
Mentor: "This will be used when they mutate and grow to the size of a track ball."
Student: "That's crazy."
Mentor: "That's what they said about the guy who invented the light bulb and look where we are now."

Only week 3 of build and we're already doing the Cupid Shuffle....what's that thing about "You know you're addicted to FIRST when..."?

I like big balls and I can not lie
You other brothers can't deny
That when a robot rolls in
And puts a round thing in your face...

I hope I don't get sued by Marvin Gay's family or Sir Mix A lot ;-)
