Here we see Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's latest Weapon of Mass Destruction, a trailer-mounted Surface-to Air Missle (SAM) bank designed to lure in and be be particularly effective against Blackhawks. This is but one example of Iran's usage of Nuclear Materials for peaceful purposes.

The evil genius, Lord Hawkenstein, perches triumphantly beside his diabolic doomsday device oblivious to the fact that the only available ammunition are propaganda T-shirts. Stupid budget cuts >.<

Robohawk: (in Elmer Fudd voice) "Be very, very quiet, I'm hunting robots.
There's one now!!! FIRE!!!."
*ATM machine blows up*
Robohawk: "Why do they make those things so robot-like?"

Team 1985 will not be participating in future years as per a mandate issued by the ASPCA. Apparently, it's considered bad taste to shoot things at large birds.

We must get enough left to fly "UP" and rescue those two lost T-shirts!"

Robohawk, practicing in operatic voice:

MEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEE

*pop* *pop* *popopopopopopopopopop* ... *pop*
(sounds of the balloons in response to the high note)

*KA-BOOOOOM!* - tee-shirt launcher

Windows shatter in surrounding homes & vehicles due to the high note and the flying tee-shirts.

Robohawk: Ok, I'm ready for the big number, let's get this show on the road.

Sounds of sirens wailing in the distance, growing closer...

Teammate: This is a failure to launch if I ever saw one.

Chris is me

Mentor: "Gather around kids, it's story time!"
Students: "...*slowly shuffle into room and sit on carpet squres*"
The mentor began reading.
"Thunderhawk heard a boom, and he knew it was to late. Soon he was flying through the streets, being propelled by a cheap cotton t-shirt. 'I've been hit...' he moaned, crashing into a tree. The impact of him hitting the tree shook down leaves, squirrels, and acorns. A squirrel fell on him, claws landing squarely on his eye, and he shrieked in pain ::ouch:: . 'WHY DIDN'T I WEAR MY SAFETY GLASSES????' he cried, slumping over, eyes rolling back into his head. 'Goodbye, world...stay safe' he warned. Ever since the Thunderhawk incident, safety glasses have been mandatory for everyone in the pits and on the field, and at events involving moving parts, such as parades. You can thank him for your eyesight."
Mentor: "So, what's the moral of this story?"
Kid: "You're not allowed to tell stories any more; that's the moral. C'mon guys, let's go do something fun...you know, we kind of have a robot to build."

Thirty minutes later, the mentor entered the shop. Sure enough, every single kid was wearing their safety glasses. A student came up to him, looking perplexed.
Student: "So, where are YOUR safety glasses?"

Team member decorating float grumbles, "We're never going to be able to convert this shooter into a trackball launcher."

Bird: "Be positive! That trackball will fly up into the air, as if it had wings like me!"

Team member: "Ha, those wings? You can't fly either."
