Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #200

Okay, okay, I'm on it! (Since Friday, I've been burning the candle at both ends ever so slightly.)

Congratulations!
Today is your day.
You're off to Great Places!
You're off and away!

You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes
You can be a FIRST mentor
if you so choose.
You're on your own. And you know what you know.
And YOU are the guy who'll decide where to go.

You'll look over many colleges. Look 'em over with care.
About some you will say, "I don't choose to go there."
With your head full of brains and your shoes full of feet,
you've chosen WUSC as your college – SWEET!

You’ll spend a lot of time
over the next several years
blogging, playing video games,
and turning down beers.

You’ll mentor some kids
build a robot or two
attend marketing classes
and find lots of stuff to do.

You’ll transport the ‘bot
in the back of your Honda CR-V
and juggle homework assignments
while judging caption contests on CD.

You will summer in Maine
taking busses and trains.
Stopping along the way at BattleCry and other places,
and meeting many familiar FIRST faces.

You’ll join Amtrak’s Guest Rewards
and avoid Jess’ clipboards
and volunteer wherever you can.
We in FIRST will welcome you with open arms
and embrace your many charms
‘Cuz Billfred, YOU’RE THE MAN!


(Updated May 2008)
It’s been four years and 25,767.5 miles
- you’ve given us all many smiles
and probably shed a tear or two -
what will we do without you?

Congratulations!
Today is your day.
You're off to Great Places!
You're off and away!
What more can we say?
We hope that with FIRST you will stay...


Second place goes to:
