It would be a really goot idea for any teams to bring Purel with them, I know there was some that appeared in out pit last year and was used a bunch. I don't know how it go there but it was really good to have. I know this year I have a small bottle that I will be carrying in my pocket all day just because I can't afford to miss anymore school :-D

In 2004, almost everyone became sick with Norwalk (the norovirus). It was a very unpleasant experience.

The event will be held in a couple of days and there have been many schools in the Richmond area that have already been contaminated with Norwalk this week. It was on the news many times, I just thought I'd warn everyone.

Some people joke about it a lot, I do sometimes; but this is a very serious issue. Wash your hands people. Use hand sanitizer at any opportunity you have.

The past two years have been great without Norwalk, let's make it three years this year.

I was wondering how long it'd take for Norwalk to pop up in the VCU thread...

Seriously, wash your hands and use hand sanitizer. The fact that Norwalk beat us to the regional should only make this more imperative.

Meanwhile, anyone up for some tacos this year?:p

I'm doing the good ol' Ukrop's fried chicken, or maybe starbucks, or probably just gonna skip lunch and eat a big breakfast and dinner. But that was something I didn't think about, make sure that what you are eating hasn't gone bad, as that is the easiest way to get sick.

The globe by far was my favorite. And oh man, the Norwalk at VCU aka robosars decimated our team. We lost like half of our members on like friday or saturday. Luckily we did not bring it back to Georgia.

So far the only team that has been hit by the Norwalk is 1086, the other two schools were an elementary and middle school.

Oh yes, the science museum is awesome! The last couple of years I've spent just about the entire social just wandering around and checking out the exhibits, they're so cool. I'll definitely be there, probably wandering around monologuing to Josh again about 13 motor transmissions. (Although this year I believe its either 16 or 17 motors, I'm not sure which) So, if you see a dude with red or blue hair wandering by going on about "insane torque, and speed. It'd be unstoppable, it just needs a wheels to harness it, blah, blah, blah" it's probably me. Feel free to say hi, it'll at least give whoever I'm talking to a break.

The science museum is tons of fun its just kind of sad that a lot of exhibits are decaying and in need of repair but on all the drives past(i go past everyday on the way to school) it always looks like theres some sort of stuff going on so hopefully there will be a bunch of new exhibits this year.
