Cupcake sounds really good.

I think its this, but I'm not really sure, that as long as we've been Built On Brains He has been called BOB. Every year it changes to old BOB and New BOB. This year was different though. We usually just keep last years BOB around until after the Championships or the next fall, but this year we had 2006 BOB until a week or two ago. Then it was old BOB (2007) and shooter BOB (2006). We usually don't start calling him BOB until he starts taking shape.

He really does have a personality. I remember in my senior year (2005) his drive train would always "jump" every time we turned him on. Then the next year when we started getting to the programing and driving time we where expecting him to "jump" again. It worried us the first couple of times when he didn't, but it's easier to work on him when you don't have to block him up off the ground for testing in the pits.
