Re: You know you've been in FIRST too long...

when your walking through Boston and suddenly see a building that was built is 1733 and you start screaming at your son who is the actual team member about it and he grabs the cell phone and asks some stranger to take a picture of us standing next to the sign on the wall.

When you spend a rather large amount of money on a car and then insist that extra tie downs be installed in the back to strap down the robot in a way that looks like a seat belt and then you put the robot into the van buckle it in and tuck a warm blanket around it so it does not get cold. i mistakenly thought it might be bad to get the electronics cold so i wanted to help. little did i know. *shrugs*

When you can line a wall with empty 2 litter bottles of mountain dew code red and duct tape and .... the wall is full and there are less then 10 kids on the team.

When your mom makes posts on chiefdelphi.com just because she is sitting "supervising" and forgot the question she was to look up for the team. now mom how many cylinders can we install and still be "legalish"
