That song haunts my dreams. But in a good way.

- You know you've been in FIRST too long when you've forgotten what the word "sleep" means.

Re: You know you've been in FIRST too long...

When you go to amusement parks and evaluate the systmes used on each ride

When you see a number similar to your team number and get excited

When your traveling downtown with another robtics member and you see tetras.....EVERYWHERE

When you have your mentors e-mail, phone number( house and cell) Pager number and office extension memorized
-When you ahve his wifes #'s
-When you have his mother and fathers numbers

When your mentors mother reffers to you as " The Grandchildern"

When you are able to beat the living shoot out of your mentor and he laughs

When your mentor throws things at you in class
-When you throw things back


When you cannot sleep at night because you are worried about what next years game will be

When you dream of next years game and wake up and go draw what your robot should look like.

When you can sit down and figure out what makes you a addicted to first

........Yea we actually sat down with some memebers at lunch and thoguht of some of this........We love FIRST
