As always, the deadline is Saturday at midnight Eastern. Of course, since I'll be in New York City at the deadline (unless Amtrak really drops the ball), judging may be a little funny.

Go!

Tired from playing with robots and trackballs all day, Koko Ed falls asleep and dreams he's licking a giant cherry ice cream cone. But a taste reminiscent of old sneaker soles startles him awake.

Koko Ed demonstrates his idea for a shooter robot. The team quickly realizes they will need an actuater stronger than Ed's tongue. Then Ed quoted Psalm 12:4:

Ed attempts to determine how many licks it takes to get to the center of an Overdrive trackball.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #191
 

Cmon Ed, you know you're not supposed to lick anything that has been outside in the wintertime, no matter how much it looks like a big cherrie Tootsie Pop.

Team membe: "How low can you go, Mr. Patterson?"

Ed: "Well, kids let's see. (takes ball). All right, here we go, here we go...almost through...uh oh...oh no..."

Ed: "Check the COG on the robot, ok?"

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #191

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #191
 

Since Big Mike was no where to be found, Ed needed a hug from the next best thing.
