That reminds me of a story from Virginia regionals last year. we have this really small girl on our team(probally less than 5 ft tall) and as a joke she decided to climb up into the overhead storage bin on out charter bus. she thought she would be up there for about 5 minutes while we waited for our advisors and some other team members to get on the bus. about 30 mins later everyone else got on the bus. our advisor started roll call. when he got to her name, she poked her head out of the bin and said "Here." it was so darn funny when she did that. everyone on the bus was laughing for a long time. she earned the nickname Luggage after that

I know that I am going to RR, but I dont think I am riding on the bus with 84.

See you all there, (including all the hot chicks)

P.S. team 87 is not going to win this competition, and we are going to win because I am driving!!!!!!!!!

(I won the NANO competition at Duel on the Delaware!)

Re: newbies
 

yes m'am...this is true....but that just means more responsibility for us vets to keep the n00bies in line..hehe...and it shows how much FIRST has grown....

anyways....357 will be there riding Jester strong...and JJ will be ready to roll across the field...

*cracks knuckles*....I am stoked ab this competition...

P.S. Jester is also single but has a kid....if thats not a problem daisy we're all cool.... ;)

I forgot to mention that Chuck has a younger sister Moose. She is about 1, but that's not a problem! Any young male bots out there?

Re: I am going
 

Dude we won the Duel with a rookie driver. we actually have a better driver(like they could get any better?!). just bring it so when we beat you we know you didnt give it to us. K?
GO DIABLO!!!

starting to get psyched for Ramp Riot 2002(why its called that is beyond me seeing as there are no ramps in this years game...)

"Ramp Riot 2002: Official Information for Students "
 

Hey everyone! Make sure you are checking the thread "Ramp Riot 2002: Official Information for Students ". I will be posting important info for everyone on this site. So check it out.

You need a pimp hat.
:D

I am just trying to get my children dates. As soon as they get married they will be on their own. Oh, I will miss them so.

Homework?

:P

we dont have any mini-bots. we do have a nice big extending rod on our bot. it does its job well.(when it works)
It used to have a spring loaded deployer but it broke before the duel at our newbie meeting (#%#%#%#% those newbies, they gotta know our bot has sensitive handling. They just go and ram the joystick in the direction they want to go.) we now have to jerk the bot to make it fall down.


Diablo. raising hell since the 1990's.

Oh oh oh oh
 

It's a improvement for us, eh?... Talking smack, eh?... But I gotta agree that the hat is part of our legacy- lots of good memories come with it.

I just thought of something- we had the hat for Tom and Hephaestus but what are we gonna use about Daisy? Do we get her one of those hats with Bob Marley dreads? Or do we get her a Queen Elizabeth hat?

:D nice graphic oneangrydaisy

ah yes, gotta love the newbies as well as all the ditzy girls that come along w/it. i just sorta haveta to shake my head sometimes and let it roll off of me.

the preparation for ramp riot is driving me crazy!

remember to bring your food cans!
