You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...

[EricH]

-When, at Christmas dinner, someone mentions some form of exploding meat (Ham, I think) and you turn to your dad and whisper "Oink, oink, boom."
-When, five seconds after the previous, your mom, who is on the other side of your dad, says something about Exploding Bacon.

When your addicted to chiefdelphi and you seriously consider making a book out of this thread and every thread like it.

-when you lose your voice from cheering so hard at the competitions.

-when every time your art teacher tells you to draw something you show up in the tech class want the keys to the room that stores the robot.

-when your inside jokes from the competition have been explained so much that you don't get them anymore

-when you force your brothers to pretend they are robots and callenge them to a game of Rack 'n Roll

-when you have 10 gigabytes of computer space taken up by one years worth of FIRST pictures.

-when you realize that half the words you use are technical words that you don't know the definition of (like chasy... what is a chasy??? now I feel dumb =( )

-when you constantly check your watch to see when the next match starts

[Ponderous]

somebody should write this down and make it into a book! Seriously!!! It would be the best book ever!!! (besides eragon)

If chasy is chassis, that would be the way to look it up.

You know you have overdosed on FIRST when your toes are frozen under a beautiful star studded New Hampshire sky and you are from Texas. You wait for the bus to take you to the Founder's Reception and you spend your time talking about clowns and clown makeup with KathieK, who takes your mind off your toes situation which eventually thaw out nicely in little blue booties.

Go into the forum you are interested in posting in. On the left hand side toward the top, you will see a button that says 'new thread'. Click that and it will help you start a new thread.

Make sure the topic is appropriate to the forum you select. Make sure the title is informative and all the words in the title are spelled correctly before you hit the submit button. You can not edit the title of a thread once it is submitted, only a moderator can do that.
If you have any further questions, PM me.
