Talking Re: Weighing the Robot

I have a theory for weight management for the robot. In the shop the robot usually weighs in OK, the problem is when we unpack it is mysteriously over weight! I think the robot does some eating while at drayage or on its FedEx trip. Influenced by our heavy pizza eating during build the robot makes poor dietary choices causing it to gain unwanted weight. This year i will weigh the robot on the scale in the trainer's office. I think the robot will get jealous of the featherweight wrestlers and will suck it in as to not be over weight. To aid in the shipping process I plan on hanging a poster of the new food pyramid and hope for the best!

Best of luck everybody and think thin!
