If that is your garage in the background, wow.

It is nice to have JVN as your security force!
You never know when one of the those stray cats, fuzzy squirrels or fluffy bunnies decide to move in for the winter!

Is there a way the moderators could "steer" outsiders away from this thread? I fear the reputation of the FIRST community is at "steak." <joking, of course>

Ooh, this sounds like it might turn into an interesting story. Is that some kind of haircut that deflects swarms of angry Vex robots? Maybe an afro that somehow holds helium allowing you to fly away from an 148 robot experiencing autonomous "errors"? Or, perhaps you mean permanent cover; such as a bomb shelter or wherever English teachers that make spelling mistakes go to hide from their axe-wielding colleagues?

Re: pic: JVN and Chick-Fil-A Cow

I find myself on the long horns of a dilemma. Whether to jump into this discussion with both hooves, or just to steer clear of the topic, that is the question. While I am moo-ved to participate, I just don’t know if I cud stand it. Is it even possible that this topic can be further butchered? After grazing through the posts thus far, I can put stock in the wisdom of those that have already grilled the punsters. I am just going to chuck it in - it is not worth the risk of getting into a beef with those who enjoy all this bull. I think that Mme. Pasture would have said it best: "It is time to put a steak through this thread, before anyone else is herd."

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.

Oh, JVN is in his prime; certainly he can take some ribbing!

Besides, when he retires IFI can dig up this photo and use it at his roast.

And I honestly think these posts are going in one ear and out the udder!
