Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #119
When the sad day finally arrived for little "Richie" Kressly's mom to send her special son out into the big, cruel world alone, she found that she had run out of thread to stitch his real first name onto his underwear, so she improvised.

A Fairy Tale of Sorts
In a state of utter confusion, Rich consulted the Mirror on the Wall: Rich: Mirror, Mirror on the Wall who's the coolest of them all? and the Mirror answered: Mirror: Can you r-e-a-d? Can you s-p-e-l-l? Rich began to whine - Rich: But I'm in tie-dye like WildStang I'm competing with the big dogs I'm handsome like... and the Mirror said - Mirror: Can you r-e-a-d? Can you s-p-e-l-l? Do you see the sign that says, 'No whining'? And Rich began to Dork - laughing - dancing - singing - pulling all the tools, nuts, bolts, odds, ends, metal shards, out of his pockets and flinging them at the Magic Mirror (who fashioned them into a mini metal Dork) Rich: Ok, I admit it, I'm a Dork I LIVE for FIRST I BREATHE FIRST I AM FIRST BE the FIRST, surrender to the power of FIRST... and, as the Senior Mentors gathered round to help their literate and profuse comrade, The Mirror on the Wall, feeling highly successful, sighed the sigh of relief and said - Mirror: Another FIRSTer comes to grips with their inner Dork. Life is good. And Rich lived happily ever after, re-signed to his Dorkiness. The End |

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #119
Man, that "DORK" sticker must be humiliated.
|
Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #119
In an attempt to be respected, Rich follows his own signature advice ("Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.." - TS Elliot). He is attempting to move up from the ranks of FIRST Senior Mentor. We all wish him luck in his endeavor.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #119
At least they didn't get me mixed up with someone who is in FIRST in the New England area.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #119
I don't care how humiliating the sticker is the sign clearly states "No Whining"
|
Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #119
In an effort to promote his new training program "Drawing On Robotics Knowledge", Rich decided to advertise. In order to save space and time he decided to make up an acronym. Shown here is the results :)

Why wear the shirt, when you can wear the shirt and the sticker!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #119
Remember kids. It's always important to mark all of your tools in the shop so you can easily find them when you need them. Drill bits, hammers, hardware, screwdrivers and your "esteemed" leader. |

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #119
In an effort to become ISO compliant, FIRST began labeling everything in sight. As you can see, FIRST Senior Mentors received this descriptive label. I wonder what the Regional Directors received? :p

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #119
Where's my flash drive? Did I leave my car in the flash drive? Can someone go see if I left my car in the flash drive? I'm pretty sure I had it while I drove here... Oh look, there's my coffee. [drinks out of two day old coffee] Still tastes pretty good... Oh hey, what's this on my head?
[Sigh.] I need a vacation. |
Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #119
Being the English Teacher he is, King Dorkus the 3rd immediately stated "Hey That should say Dork, not Krod...." Not realizing he was looking in a mirror

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #119
Awww, c'mon guys, when are you going to let me take off this sticker? What do you mean, when I stop whining? I'm not whining. Aww, pretty please? Can I take it off now? Can I, Can I? Well when? I'm NOT whining.
<not part of entry> For our British teams, that's pronounced "Whinging". </not part of entry> |

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #119
Oddly enough, that post-it was less humiliating than the "Space for Rent" sign that adorned Kressly's forehead previously.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #119
After 36 hours of no sleep the robot was finally packed up and shipped, but this is what happens to the mentor that stays up that long, he falls asleep and the students put on a funny looking shirt and a sign on his head, then they wake him up and he walks around for an hour not knowing why everyone is laughing.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #119
After being turned down for a N.E.R.D. membership and shirt Rich Kressly felt bitter until an idea!
Rich K.,” Hey N.E.R.D.s! I have a message for you. You don’t have nothing on me. Checkout my cool D.O.R.K. shirt and my D.O.R.K. headband. That right, nice! We are the Distinguished Order of Robotics Kinship and you're not. Hey, Andy I am D.O.R.K. #1! The King of the DORK, Head DORK… and we are going to out number you N.E.R.D.s by next Kickoff.” |

A Dork Deferred
What happens to a Dork deferred? Does he dry up like an engineer in the sun? Or fester and sulk--- And Chief Delphi, shun? Does he tinker with Legos? Or curse the fates shaking his fist at his woes? Maybe he just pouts and eats Krispy Kremes Until he explodes? <not an entry> Forgive me Langston Hughes, I know not what I do. I do so love your poetry but we just read this poem in Lit and it's been on my mind.<end groveling for forgiveness> |

One day a man and his special son were waiting for the man's wife to come outside and get into the family sedan for a trip to the mall. Tired of waiting, the man honked his horn and yelled, "Get into the car, ma!!!" The man's son then asked, "Is Mommy going with us today, Daddy?" Rolling his eyes, the man replied, "No, Dork, I actually said 'Get into the karma!'. Here's your sign and your Zen Master Card. Namaste." And the rest, they say, is history. :D |
Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #119
A FIRST Senior Mentor should lead by example. When you forget something like your safety glasses, try to make do with what you have available. This is a sure example of how one should be a little more discretionary when choosing materials. As everyone knows, Tie Dye deflects dangerous objects, 3M Post It's do not, no matter what is written on them.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #119
Being an English teacher in FIRST is very helpful for things like making sure your team's Chairmans Award submission uses proper grammar. However, sometimes there are disadvantages, like the time one of the college mentors claimed that DORK stood for Design, Organize, Revise, Konstruct. Even though he disliked the spelling of construct, and post-it note was made with the engineering 'motto' on it to placed an a 'conspicuous location' to try to 'inspire' the students.
