For the first time, a write-in candidate has won the presidential election.

Also, for the first time, a robot has won the presidential election.

"They told me the president has already seen enough robots for today. They suggested I take it over to the Brazilians or the Canadians or the New Zealanders?!?! OK, I can understand Brazil, the Canadians maybe, but New Zealand? Do they know something I don't?"

"So, how'd it go?"

"Not great. As soon as we got the robot off the cart, he jumped on the cart, grabbed the handle and demanded to know where the ON switch was... and then he exclaimed something about this version of the Segway wasn't any better than the one he rode previously, and had us escorted out through the back door!"

Upon finding out Moezilla was in fact NOT the Roomba they had ordered to clean the carpets of the Oval Office, they immediately fired Moezilla, & had it escorted out the back gate.

CNN announcer: "We are standing outside the White House during the annual Garage Sale. Here we see another happy customer. He sems to have bought a MOE (Monitor of Earth) satellite. The last estimate of this unit was 1.5 billion dollars. We hear he got it for $125.00"

Guy pushing the bot: "Ahh, I'm so glad that my shopping is done. Let's see, I've got the Victor 884s; the 12V batter; a dozen PWM cables; a big, shiny power breaker; several pounds of metal, cut to fit; a few motors; pool noodles; bright green fabric; a couple hundred fasteners of varying sizes...geez, it looks like I could build a robot with all this stuff. Oh, right..."
