well, we have had our own problems

lets see, the high school students got too excited and were arrested by umass security... OOPS... hehe. it was rather funny, but it sorta put me in trouble too.

lets see, then the h/s students had exams for the entire 2nd week.

accounting was a big problem and i cannot order anything for the robot over $150 myself and have to go through some fella who wants to handle all the accounting and takes a few days to get things done.

hmmm, what budget?

hmm, we have no engineers.

hmm, we barely have funding...

hmm, and we have a prototype that runs on wheels and has everything on top trying hard to hold on to the wooden frame.

should i be taking pictures? hehe...

well, with all this happening, i still think it's a good year.... i cant believe it myself. we're much better off than last year..

by friday, we'll the robot 60% done. Darn parts arent coming till Thursday.... which means more delays....ahhhh!!!

good luck all..
