Robotics is fun, but it isn't the most important thing in life. |

Isn't FIRST robotics the answer to life, the universe, and everything? |

That is why I think that the Chairman's Award is better. You can have a great robot and something weird happen to your alliance and you are out. If you have a great team and win the Chairman's Award you are in the Hall of Fame forever. |

In order to change the world and make it a better place we must start with ourselves. |

We asked the neighbors if we could block the road before we did it. We had the rack out for a couple of hours. They are getting used to us doing odd things during build season. |

You won't find this in a manual anywhere but you will need COUGH DROPS!! If you haven't started losing your voice by Friday afternoon, you aren't getting the full experience. |

Nats allows an exchange of a vast multitude of ideas from everywhere. Not only in robot design, but accents, tool storage, pit design, team spirt, clothing, many things.

I think that's what they think you will think, therefore you are thinking what they want you to think. |

In my opinion, the hardest part of the competition is not that actual manufacture of the robot, but the design process. It is the enginners that go through the design process all the time that will have the edge in this competition, not the best machinist. |

Even with everyone using the same RC setup, teams still botch it in many creative ways. |

Like many researchers before me, I look and read about what my peers are doing and developing, and then incorperate the best of them into my ideas or change my focus because of them. |

By far, the worst thing about it was the severe lack of cowbell. There was no cowbell what so ever. Had there been cowbell that would have completely changed everything for me. |

A wrench isn't a nesscary part is it?
Last Night, we tested the robot and a large, (yes I said LARGE) wrench fell from somewhere on the robot....Along with bolts, nuts, and a very interestingly cut piece of Aluminum... |

It's not fair. it's not right, but stuff like this happens. If you don't get picked for finals tomorrow, get in those stands and cheer for those who did. Remember, this is FIRST. |

We had an over all losing record this year. When I look at kid's faces, they don't give a rip about that. I see excitement about the next event and talking about improvements for next year. Winning is nice, but that is not the reason I do what I do. |
