CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #326

[JaneYoung]

Team member describing the situation to the local news media:

We had no idea that planting a seed of inspiration would grow into such a big reality. It didn't help that the challenge is based on the story, Jack And The Beanstalk. Every time we do this structured fairytale theme, we end up with a giant-sized dilemma. It reminds me of the Pinocchio challenge - the whale, the water, the budget spent on mops and water vacs. Now we're just a little concerned with the area blackout that occurred when lightning struck as we blew through the roof. Who knew that would happen? I mean, really?!

Mentor beaming proudly in the background holding a flashlight - we made the evening news! *even if no one can see it...*

Robot: "The students said I can take a break after I put these tetras away. OK, let's try the cabinets. No good, Poof Balls. Let's try the store room. Nope, full of super cells. OK, I'll try the ceiling. Holy hand grenade, how did they get all those trackballs up here!?!?!?!"

[Swan217]

Eagle:I swear ma! These Tetras aren't mine! I'm just holding them for a friend!

Mother Robot: Uh huh, sure. Then why did I catch you trying to stash them in the ceiling when I came home?

I know this IS high school...but the song is "Bop to the Top", not "Bop through the top"...

[Ryan Simpson]

Team 326's ventures into a parallel universe have so far been unsuccessful. When they sent their mentor through the portal, he never made it back. Only his hat and goggles have been retrieved.

They'll never find them here!

Sorry again about the delay--blame it on my Gamecocks overthrowing Alabama on Saturday. (I went to bed at 12:30 that night, and the party was only getting started outside my window here in Five Points.)
