I'm sorry to say that I most likely won't be making it to nationals :(. If the weather is good, I might fly down for one day - we'll see. To make things more complicated, I'm leaving for a business trip to Europe the afternoon of Sunday, April 18. Therefore, if I do go, I need to be back early.

I hope to see everyone at the IRI.

WOW! Somebody actually wants to meet me at nationals. I feel special. :o I'll likely be walking around quite a bit on the fields. I'm set to be one of the 'alternate' scorekeepers because they are all full, for the full time people. I shouldnt be hard to miss, just look for the tall goofy looking one.

This thing about Amanda Morrison kicking my butt.... sssppphhh!! That will never happen because I'm much taller than her and I can just jump up and miss all over her kicks and punches. :yikes:

Marcus .. I can bring him for sure. CD-47 Bot .. he's pretty shy. I don't know that he'll make it. :D

Re: People i want to meet at nationals
 

I am going to re-meet people mostly...like

Ricky Q
Ian W.
Big Mike
Ashlee


Meet Finally!
Cory
Katie R.

And there is more but I'm being lazy at the moment.

Re: People i want to meet at nationals
 

Hmm...I'm going to have to get around to introducing myself to CD people eventually. I know that I lurk more often than I post, and that my small contributions usually aren't that great, but still...Eventually, you'll end up with the (dis)pleasure of meeting the biggest pessimist on 818. :)

I've had chances before - I saw D.J. at the GLR when I was there by myself, and I recognized quite a few people at both Detroit and Palmetto, but I never was able to get myself to talk to them. Maybe it would help if I posted a "Who Am I" picture so people had a chance to know what I looked like...

I won't be at Nationals, though...Oh well. There's always next year.

That's about it for this batch of self-absorbed ramblings. If you've actually made it through the post, congrats - you have a strong tolerance for being bored. :D

Re: People i want to meet at nationals
 

For all you folks who're stalking Dave...

He's scheduled to appear in front of Epcot's Mission: SPACE attraction tomorrow, April 6, for the unveiling of a plaque that has Sean O'Keefe's quote, "We're back...and we're on Mars!" that will be added to the building facade.

Sean O'Keefe, Orlando Figueroa, and Dr. Catherine Weitz are also scheduled to appear.

Around what time? :)

Re: People i want to meet at nationals
 

I cant wait to meet everybody at Nats. I'm going to try to sneak away from my team for thursday lunch...........hopefully none of them are reading this thread :yikes:. If I'm not there its because a mentor or another student has me tied to the cart or to the robot. CD is a great place and without people such as Ken Witleff (sp?) Ken Leung, JVN, etc. it would not be the same without these guys. Some of them helped my team out a lot when we had problems and needed help. Their quick replies helped out and provided much needed insight. Thanks to everyone on these forums for making it such a great place. Drop by Team 900's pits sometime and introduce yourself. If you dont see me just ask one of my team members and they will find me quickly. Atlanta is going to be a blast.......i cant wait
