Well, we've finished our Noah's Ark Reconstruction project. Good news is we can fit 2 at a time. Bad news is we still don't know what in the world a cubit is.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #304

So one day I walk into the playing field and find this...
Everyone is happy that they finished a bump but they are trying desperately trying to design a robot that can go over the object they have constructed. Being one with the bump got them no closer to a solution but it did give them a few hours of R&R while they played. So I, being known for understatement, walk over to the wall and turn the drawing right side up. I smile and walk out hearing "where were you for the last three days?!?" over my shoulder. I smile the smile of contentment for another good day in the life of a mentor and know my job here is done.
