"That thing could have blown up in your face!"
"You'd be dead!"

-Students from 1058 after we discovered that the tread was seperating from the wheel by 1/4" on our prototype pitching machine type shooter (it was spinning at 3000 rpm)

I guess that's why we have safety glasses... ::safety::

Said by our CAD mentor when we discovered that our bolt heads on our spockets were .01 inches away from our other wheels:
"As the limit of bolt heads distance to wheels approaches zero, the robot stops working."

Me while talking to our lead about a part he wants that is both currently out of our budget and sold out.

Chad: I wonder how to get two of these...
me: The Easter Bunny.
Chad: I was thinking wish upon a falling star. lol
me: ...Does your son have any loose teeth?
We can nab the tooth fairy so we can get in touch with the rest of the magical holiday beings...

i totally agree ;) it's amazing to me to see how similar teams can be even though they can be totally different at the same time. My mentors taught me that "the impossible only takes a little longer"

(speaking of this years gearbox plates)
Tony-"They're tall and narrow, isn't that how you like your women?"

Grey- "First off, I like my women with more curves than that, second, what's the radii on those cheese holes?"

(Student) - "I just like dragging crap around. I don't really know how to wire it together."

While explaining the dynamics of a drive crew to a rookie driver:

"Think of it like this. You're Luke Skywalker, and the field coach is your targeting computer. Now, you can turn off the targeting computer... but if you do, you had better blow up the Death Star."
