I thought the number 1 reason that FIRST would be the fact that the local stores are out of stock of Dew for a month after!!!

Darn ninny store owners, I'll just have to yoink some Dew before they run out!!!

When I first saw the title, 'What the heck happened to Anton?' went through my mind. But all is well in the land of FIRST, as you, Anton, have not gone nutty.

another reason that FIRST sucks... I don't get to spend qulaity time with my family for 6 long, hard weeks... wait a minute... that's not a bad thing necessarily... nevermind!

Anton forgot to mention the shortages FIRST creates:

1. Slide rule batteries

2. Marbles in toy stores (every member of FIRST
must replace theirs)

3. preIBOT wheels

4. Sleep

5. Blister bandaids

6. Sore throat spray

7. Roses for missed dinners and dates

8. Long sleeve denim shirts

9. Chain master links

10. Red dye for Ken's hair.

another reason that FIRST sucks... I don't get to spend qulaity time with my family for 6 long, hard weeks... wait a minute... that's not a bad thing necessarily... nevermind! And plus, I get to watch Survior and other quality TV shows that I would never watch at home.

during the 6 weeks i have to contact the post office and tell them to send my mail to PSI where we work

[Anton Abaya]

indeed i cannot believe we forgot the need for more hair dye for ken. tsk tsk!

Me too! But, replace post office with parental units, mail with food, PSI with Beach Street, and work with live.
mmmmm, FIRST.....<insert homer drooling sound>

WOO! Anton's gonna be back! I was worried after your previous thread. You Ninny. Clad to hear you'll be back.

FIRST also....
*Makes parents and husbands and wifes and kids wonder what happened to there missign family member
*Makes you only have friends as dorky as you cause you never see anyone who isn't on your team
*Ruins any chances you have of getting a date
*Makes lots of employers wondering what in the world happened to you for 6 weeks...
*and fills your teachers with fear as to how much work you may have actually gotten done, especially when finals are in the middle of the six weeks

[Anton Abaya]

dates? what are those? hmmm....

[mike o'leary]

whats happened to everyone...

INHALED AUDIBLY...
