Pumpkins are from left to right

"Pumpkin" 1: Sean, this guy doesn't look like your dad!
"Pumpkin" 2: Oops, sorry Billfred, guess this GPS isn't accurate enough for use in the 2006 game.
"Pumpkin" 3: Guys it's really cramped inside these pumpkins, so while we are here can we go inside and get ahold of some traction wheels so IFI can see if the bolt pattern our available wheels matches with AndyMarks's available sprockets?
"Pumpkin" 1: Good idea JVN!

After having nightmares of faces staring at her the night before, Andy's daughter slept in his arms. It wasn't until the following morning he understood what she was talking about.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #77

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #77
 

With the calm days before the storm rapidly ticking away (and much to the delight of the pumpkins, if I may add), Andy decided to try these two things not usually associated with FIRSTers during the build season - sleep and spending time with family.

Lucy: I won...I beat daddy up! WooT!
Andy: Nap time...
Andy: *SNOREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE*

*I think its Lucy if its not its Isabelle :o*

"Kickoff....No!...Shipdate!...No!....Weight limit!"

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #77
 

Andy's daughter: Yay! It's October! That means I get daddy away from robot time!

Andy: :snore: and then all the good little robots... :snore: got to go to Candy Land... :snore: get some new parts... :jumps awake: Oooh, I need that for Andymark!

Andy's daughter: Maybe if I start in September next year... :sleep:

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #77
 

Pumpkin #1: Do you see what I see?
Pumpkin #2: What?
Pumpkin #1: Andy's spending time with his daughter.
Pumpkin #2: Why is that such a big deal?
Pumpkin #1: I didn't think Andy knew he had a daughter since he spends so much time with those robot thingies
Pumpkin #3: :ahh:

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #77
 

In a battle to see who could last the night in front of the TV watching Dave Lavery do stand up comedy, neither Andy Baker nor his daughter seemed to last...

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #77
 

Andy: ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!
*telephone rings*
Andy: Huh? Wha-? I just won the Woodie Flowers Award!?!! Why didn't you wake me up sooner??
Kyle (on the other end of the line): We figured you were so tired after build we'd let you sleep through the offseason, but this came up...

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #77
 

Andy forgot to turn the TV off before falling asleep with his daughter. The pumpkins outside decided they wanted to see for themselves what wonderful knowledge they could glean from Man's mysterious television. A few hours later, the poor pumpkins' brains had been irreversibly damaged.

Pumpkin #1: Aflac.
Pumpkin #2: The purple pill called nexium.
Pumpkin #3: I just saved 15% or more on car insurance!

[not an entry] Is it just me, or does it look like it is outside on both sides of the glass?

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #77
 

playing with his little daughter all day and then take a nap during halloween is every man's dream. :)

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #77

Doe
Ray
Egon!

my candle is too hot
[then the mommy pumpkin said] my candle is too cold
[then the baby pumpkin said] OH NO! MR BILL!

take three:
"oh sure! Holloweens over, she gets to snuggle while we are left outside to ROT!"

Horror movies that never made it: Revenge of the Pumpkins

The pumpkins, tired of being abused by mankind, of being carved up, of having their innards salted, roasted and eaten, of having candles stuck into them and then meeting a final, degrading end by being hoisted by young teens and smashed in the street, decided to take matters into their own hands... er... yeah... something like that...

Pumpkin #1: Yo, Smiley, they's finally asleep.
Pumpkin #2: Excellent! Now's our chance! Hey Jack, have you seen the butcher knife?
Pumpkin #3: It's still stuck in the back of my head. Can you get it out for me, Bob? Smiley?
Pumpkin #1: Um... abouts that... like, I ain't go no hands...
Pumpkin #2: Never mind that now, we'll deal with it when we get inside. Let's go.
Pumpkin #3: Bob's got a point, we don't have hands. Or legs. How are we going to get off of this table?
Pumpkin #2: Hmmm... Bob, the grass looks pretty soft, why don't you roll off?
Pumpkin #1: Sho' thing, Boss.
Pumpkins #2 and #3: Watch out for that bench!!! Oohhh...
Pumpkin #3: Bob? Bob? I think he's gone, Smiley.
Pumpkin #2: Poor Bob. He didn't have much in the line of brains, even before that man gave him a lobotomy. But hey, he's kind of made a nice cushion for us to land on, so let's continue with our plan to wipe out mankind. And this time it's personal, this time we're doing it for Bob!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #77
 

Andy: Hey hun, guess what, I saw a robot that looks just like you!
Daughter: daddy you are always playing with robots, and not enough with me!!! *takes TV converter and whacks over Andy's head* teaches him to.......ZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzz

Pumpkin 3 (rightmost): :O DID YOU GUYS SEE THAT?!
Pumpkin 1 (Leftmost): yep :D
Pumpkin 2 (middle): hey guys, watcha lookin at?
Pumpkin 1: Just.....leave :|

With only days before the 2006 FIRST Robotics season is about to start, you can find Andy Baker hibernating in his favorite chair and spending quality time with some of his family, before he moves out for the 6 week build season.

*Edited this cause my other one was kinda crappy. I like this one better*

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #77
 

When Andy and his daughter found it hard to sleep, they would put in the tape of JVNs FIRST Confrence Workshop on "Advanced Drivetrain Calculations - Drivetrain Modeling & Simulation" that always put them to sleep.

After years of losing the town's Halloween decorating contest, the Jack-o-lanterns decided to sneak over and check on the competition.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #77
 

Pumpkin #1: Here's a good example of the Papa Bear and one of his young in hibernation...
Pumpkin #2: They rest like that for several months each fall, then suddenly, mid-winter, the Papa Bear will rise and leave the den for several months, leaving his family to fend for themselves!
Pumpkin #1: Scientists have called this phenomena "mentoring"...
Pumpkin #3: Ohhhhhh! :eek:

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #77
 

I cant make a joke about that.
Its just too adorable.
Andy that is :p

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #77
 

Having given up all hope of ever finding any *human* fans of his music, a desperate Ozzy Kamen carves 100 "gourd groupies" and scatters them around his house, trying to maintain the illusion that someone other than his tone deaf daughter can actually stand to be around him when he sings. Maybe he should call Karthik when he wakes up and they can go on tour....

soon after falling into sleep ....
I see it now, this years game is played on a hexagonal field with a raised platform and the game pieces are round orange objects

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #77
 

The next stop on the pumpkins tour of the America's to study the habits of the FIRST Obsessed North American Engineer got a real treat when they got to witness first hand a full grown adult bonding with it's offspring, both succumbing to the deep realm of R.E.M. sleep in order to exchange psychically the love for all thing FIRST though the observers where perplexed by the strange murmurs coming form the alpha male "Curse you Lavery and your red herrings!" What those cryptic words mean will perhaps remain a mystery forever.

Yellow sign on Andy's wife's car: "Robot on board; babies at home."

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #77
 

First pumpkin: See! I told you what would happen! That dude has GOT to lay off the pork and beans!
Second pumpkin: Yeah, but geez! I didn't think that when the big one farted, that it would knock them BOTH out! Man, that guy lets one rip and it is like nerve gas!
Third pumpkin: Whoever smelt it, dealt it!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #77
 

What happens when you stay up until midnight?

...you do little to nothing for new year's day. So, in an attempt to do something more than just putting up some Christmas decorations and Mom's new mailbox, I suppose it's time to judge this thing.
