pic: Dave Training Shamu at Seaworld

YES, THE PICTURE OF THE 21 MAR ROVERS ARE REAL!!!!
It is not fake.

One of the students snapped this shot after about 5 hours of assembling the 24 Lego Mars Rovers for our state FLL Competition. (We never saw that student step foot in the Lego Lab again)

Hey Rich while your buffing Daves Rovers you mind stopping by and cleaning the car for me. lol Besides you had nothing doing anyway. Not like you're in a rush to build robots or were u.


Hrm 24 Lego Rovers in 5 hrs. I say we step it up to 10 Rovers in 6 Weeks (Programmed and Running 100%) It must'nt fall apart either. Weight = 50 - 100lbs.

Good job, you've even gotten a really good match of the quality of both pictures, almost the same amount of graininess and the colors are close... And you've kept in an element of suspense... if Shamu continues on course, that back flipper is going to wack right into Dave's backside...

Thankyou- the donut is pretty bad but I deliberately screwed up the graininess to make Dave's pic try to fit the Seaworld promo pic. The lighting is a little off too. Surprisingly, all over the web I couldn't find a pic of a whale leaping up to a trainer's hand.

This whole "dub in Dave" episode started when we saw the pic of him in the team 25 shirt we gave him at Annapolis. Team 25 chooses a new Hawaiian shirt pattern each year to commemorate the season. The idea originally started as a positive motivation for the team to work for a trip to the Nationals in Florida. Now we are best buddies with Royal Hawaiian Creations in Honolulu and have been getting shirts from them in quantity since 1999. We sell them as a fund raiser and generally make $1500-2000 annually for the kids' travel accounts. We are honored that Dave will wear our colors as he did and we are putting him on our "shirt VIP" list from this year on.
