Guido now makes $10,000,000 a year building robot player replacements for the NBA. See if you ever make fun of another colorblind person again! HA!

The funny thing is that we DO have a mentor we nicknamed Guido - Well, actually he gave himself that nickname, but it still is funny.
It would be even more funny if he were a mentor on the programming team, and not the mechanical team.

Also, the funny thing about that day, was that we did this at a D.A.R.E. day event, and the kids enjoyed it this sight so much, the 4 cops that were standing in the vicinity, and also watching from a distance, had grins on their faces. I was expecting them to yell at us, but they were cool about it.

"team 237's original design was to make a robot that could bowl. they where sucessful, but the idea of bowling balls going 200 ft/s did not appleal to the team after 5 members lost their legs"
"now sucessful with basket ball, a DDR robot is in the planning phase

Ah well...as always, Midnight Saturday. (I feel like I should give richardp the Price Is Right Award for coming the closest to the deadline without going over. Seriously, go look--it was exactly midnight on Saturday.)

I also agree since that would help my average score and hopefully make me as funny as Gary Dillard. As close as that was I still think that 116's chairmans award was more impressive, with only 10 seconds to spare. (I am only waiting to think of something funny before I post an entry)

And at the end of the day, the 237 robot was left hanging, still waiting for the alli-oupe from Dave Lavery. His excuse - he heard there was a new Krispy Kreme store opening.

Me :Is that JVN by those cars?
Aaron :I don't think so. Well actually...
Me :Oh my god theres a robot hanging on the rim!! Where the heck did that come from?
Aaron :Yeah, well now that you mention it i think it is JVN....

Team 237 takes a tip from the best, and gets their robot set to pick up some ladies.

Girl: That's a miiiighty fine robot you've got there.
Robot: Go back to Indiana, shorty.

Actually Gary, you technically have the lead in the contest, by virtue of having a higher average score. Now, if you two had the same average score, then technically you'd still be listed over Heidi (G comes before M in the alphabet), but I'd be calling it a tie.

And Gary and Richard, don't forget The Heidi Foster Rule.</non-entry of obviousness>
