A track from the album:

Well this is the story all about how
My life got flip turned upside down
Now won't you take a minute just sit right there
I'll tell you all about how FIRST changes the world by inspiring students to pursue science and technology.

[notentry]Yes, I used my one allotted Reverse Bel-Air on the Caption Contest.[/notentry]

I could sure use the technology about now-- this alien is about to eat me, and all I want to do is get away so I can seem my kids! Come on, FIRST, invent something!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #260

If it was not for my background in FIRST robotics I would not be able to repair x-ray machine. Although I am poor and caring for my son, I am glad I started in FIRST because it gave me a foundation for a successful career even if not in Science and Technology.

1.
{npoe, I must answer a video caption, with a caption video}
Buzz Aldrin would argue what you need is a Rocket Experience.

2.
Yeah. Great. A true testimony. I have no idea why FIRST later decided to have guest speakers that have actually made an impact on the world of science and technology.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #260

Although it may not require a show of fireworks or the cleverness of a wordsmith, the day will soon come when through the advanced recognition and innovative developments of science and technology, independence and opportunity will be gained, proving once again that where there is a will, there is a way.

Apparently this guy has never experienced FIRST, because for six weeks in the winter I spend almost no time with my family.
