"I threw away that pile of useless parts and filled the space with something much more useful...Wha-? That pile of useless parts was our robot?!?! ooops..."

Old mother Hubbard with a robot twist.

Team member josh,
still tasting mouthwash.
went to get some food.
But when he got there
The cupboard was bare
and so poor josh got none.

In search of a dew.
The quest continued
Until the box was found.
He cracked open a can
then was jumped on the spot
so the can fell from his hand

And onto the floor
by the shop door,
making a big puddle.
A mentor slips
but all is normal
10 days till the robot ships.

[Al Skierkiewicz]

Really people, this is not how we mentor new teams. What about tools, wire, white boards, engineers and teachers?!? OK so this will get them through kickoff but what then?

[lukevanoort]

Josh: Look at all these drinks... so good, so tempting, but, but but, must not drink.
Disembodied Voice: Drink...
Josh: *drinks Dew* Yum, delicious. Thank you, Lord for allowing me to satiate mine thirst with this soda.
Disembodied Voice: Lord? What are you talking about? I'm the air conditioner repairman
Josh: What???? No!!!!! *Disappears with a flash and hint of brimstone"

<Not an entry>To get this you have to know that Josh's religion forbids caffeinated drinks</not an entry>

"This picture was taken before Kickoff. Since then, the only thing remaining of 587's food stash is the Diet Pepsi."

This was the last photo ever taken of Team 587's food stash. By the end of the night, it was never to be seen again.

[skimoose]

Has your team ever left packing to the freshmen?

You get to your first Regional, open the shipping crate, ......

and THIS is what you find!

Ummmm, I thought you packed the robot....

Robot, what's a robot....

[EddieMcD]

"Here we have Billfred's personal food storage. Since it can often take him days to judge a caption contest and he doesn't want to get up for anything, Billfred keeps all the standard rations within five feet of his computer."

Josh the Genie grants 3 wishes to a 587 team mentor:

Mentor: "MUAHAHAHAHAHAaaaaaaaaaaa I now wield the ultimate power!!!!! The world is mine!!!!!!! Now, for my first wish, I desire a clunky old 5.25" floppy drive."

*POOF*

Genie Josh: "Your wish is granted. It now sits on the top shelf."

Mentor: *taps fingers together* "Exxxxxxxxxxxxxxxcellent, Smith(ers). For my second wish, I desire a bunch of junk food to motivate my robot-building slaves.......er, students!!!"

*SHAZAM*

Genie Josh: "Your wish is granted. They will all do your bidding for a taste of this caffeinated, sugary goodness."

Mentor: "AHAHAHAHAHAHAaaaaaaaaa no one in the world shall oppose me! For my final wish, I desire you to stop wasting time granting wishes and go help the others build the robot. *whispers* And oh yeah, get a haircut while you're at it."

*ALACAZAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM*

Genie Josh: "Thank you, Master, for freeing me from this awful burden! I will go help the build team now. *checks mirror on the way* Wait, you made me get a haircut too? You tricked me, evil one. Nooooooooo!!!!!!!"

Mentor: "ULTIMATE POWERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!"

"...but where are the Krispy Kremes?"
