hope you guys have fun driving from Ct., it will be interesting for you.
~Mike

;) Mike, everything is interesting for the Techno Ticks!!;)

Actually... driving might not be so bad. As I'm becoming a poorer and poorer college student (getting into hangliding might push me back a few,) having the option of driving is great!

Or... even if my team wants to bring down extra stuff and it's too much money to ship, we have the option of making somebody with a truck go down there.


Also... there's a cool motor/speedway place an hour-ish outside Atlanta where you can drive race cars and dragsters. Because of things like this, having a car with you would be convenient.

No, but we have those too. Picture a GIANT McDonalds on steroids with at least a hundred people at all times.....

I'd have to agree with that!! Hey, it puts a little spice in our lives!! And who WOULDN'T just love driving down to Atlanta from CT in a bus.. with the team!!! And hey, if Ike Fae is driving (we'll keep Ike Fae on the DL from now on ;) ) then, heck, wild horses couldn't keep me away!!!

Cecily will finally get her Road Trip... ahh, the beauty of Robotics!!!

And hey, jmerc... do you think the team will actually go out and about the town? instead of sitting at the hotel and eating at the Bistro... and you know- and stuff!?;)

Well Greeneyes13, the possiblilty of us going out is probable, but it comes with a harsh catch- IT WILL COME OUT OF THE PR BUDGET!! But for now we can only dream of our idolized former seniors coming back to spend quality time with us. (Hey Slyck- WPI's not that far- come see us!!). As for Cecily, she will be happy and hopefully will insist on Jack coming with us. (Can we get the bird on out bus too???;) )

We are RED
We are HOT
We are not CHILLI
We are DA PEPPAS!!!!

BIIIIIRRRRRRDDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AHHHH!!!! That would be hilarious! oh my.. good laugh.

Do you think our senior will visit us? how could they not!? they love us... right!? RIIIIGHT!!!!

PR budget is just a joke.. it's really like the team pot.. but, hey.. anything that gets us to where we wanna be is ok by us, right?

i wonder if we can get anymore of those pez despensers that we found in the office... i love pez.. (not to be confused with PEEPS!!!)

PEPPAS!!!!!!!! :ahh:

hey jmerc- you a free agent?!? ;)

You bet your sweet rear I'm a free agent. And theres no better place to meet guys than in....ATLANTA!

:) Atlanta- watch out and prepare yourself for the free agents of the Techno Ticks!!!!!

Good times are just waiting to be had in Atlanta...

~Mike

FREE AGENTS!!!!!!!!

Wow, yeah... free agents all over the place!!! :p

i never knew free agent was such a widely used term.. did you jmerc? hehe. my friend/ team mate.. wildcatsfive informed me that it's a sports term in general.. learn something new every day!!!!

Atlanta will be the free agent capital!!! AHHHHH!!!!!!

hey.. i wonder if the sexy dancers will be there... :ahh:
and of course- mel's lover (pronounced love-ah) :)

My dear friends Greeneyes13 and wildcatsfive I would like to make an announcement:

We are starting a F.I.R.S.T. Dating Service

If you are a free agent (single) and are looking for some robotics romance (in Old Lyme we like to call it "Tick Lovin') then just email me and we will be in contact to learn a little about you and help you find your perfect match. Atlanta is a few months away, and we, the Techno Ticks believe in year-round efforts. So if youre lonely and looking for that special someone, let us know. Email me with the subject or title "Robotics Romance" to start the search!!!;)

Hey, Jmerc!!!

Wow.. you are genious! Hahaha!

I would like to sign up for this little program of yours... you know.. in the whole FIRST spirit. I would like to not only be gracious- but also be professional- and what better way than with some genuine "Tick Lovin" !?!?

I understand that this is the off season.. but i totally agree with the year-round efforts.. so there is only one thing left to do.. sign me up!! FIRST free agents can finally escape this title... i think this is your good deed for society!!!

And may i just say.... "OOOOOOHHHHHH BAAAABY!!!!!"

Been there, done that.

Would it be too much to ask to keep this thread on topic and take your conversations to a more private medium?

The subject here is of some importance, I'd think, and I'd rather not see it degrade in quality.

Thanks.
