	FIRST is the best thing I could have ever done. It shows me where I think my limits are, and it destroys them right in front of my eyes. My experiences with FIRST have defined who I am, and I am beyond blessed to have had them.	Audrey Chu	Duke461
	I was dragged to the first team meeting in September my freshman year and a week later, found myself at Fall Classic. Needless to say, after experiencing the heat of a competition, I was in love. ... Robotics has become far more than just that. I get to do the coolest thing in the world.	Audrey Chu	msimon785
	Once this competition is over, we should donate all of these Poof balls to daycares, elementary schools, neighbors; all the little kids. It would make us look good like, "Here's our Toys for Toddlers gift from us upstanding citizens. And we build robots."	atomikitten	Jessica Boucher
	Seniors, do you realize this is your last robot season?!	atomikitten	David Guzman
	After all, each day is fresh with no mistakes in it [yet].	atomikitten	Alan Anderson
	I love losing my voice in the name of F.I.R.S.T :)	Athleticgirl389	Arefin Bari
	It's what this is all about. Making dreams happen.	Astronouth7303	Lisa Rodriguez
	If nothing's going wrong, then there is something seriously wrong.	Astronouth7303	shyra1353
	Please ask a specific question if you want a specific answer. We are not psychic; we can not read your mind.	Astronouth7303	Ian Curtis
	We've done all the speculation we can do (some of us with less knowledge than others); let's rest our minds and keyboards and wait.	Astrokid248	EricH
	It's kind of magical how I went from legos to replacing most of the iron in my blood with aluminum, and all thanks to my elementary school science teacher.	Astrokid248	Karibou
	Us, as adults, find ways to help the kids to make it happen.	aspiece	Billfred
	To all programmers: you are Geniuses!	Ashley Weed	Elgin Clock
	"The compressor is half the temperature of a toasted Subway sandwich."	Ashley Hartley	Grey Mann
	canadians are amazing..	Ashley Christine	Daniel Brim
	... you know you are a nerd when you want safety glasses for your birthday! :P	Ashley Christine	Arefin Bari
	FIRST: Making women's hair grow, and mens hair fall out.	Ashley Christine	JackN
	Replay/video isnt a BAD idea, its just not a GOOD idea for FIRST.	Ashley Christine	Steve W
	Wait...you're supposed to have a driver? I guess I should have read past the Autonomous section in the manual :D	ASD20	ctt956
	This is one case where I really wish Andymark didn't listen to their customers so well.	ASD20	Billfred
	Wow. Just wow. Never did I think the mentor built robot debate would make it on to a tv show.	ASD20	frcguy
	Throw the programmers (or freshmen with duct tape depending on the state of your robot) in the trailer with the robot for the ride between events. Problem solved. :D	ASD20	Golfer4646
	"Needless to say, my Roomba will be making my toast from now on" -Colbert	artK	Hallry
	Don't forget the robot, the most important hardware there is!:p	artK	Whippet
	PS. Listen to the wise Brandon Martus. Think before you (re)act.	artdutra04	kjohnson
	As Shakespeare once said in Julius Caeser, "Cowards die many times before their deaths; the valiant never taste of death but once."	artdutra04	nehalita
	I've always thought that what makes an average person exceptional is not their inability to make mistakes, but rather their ability to recognise, rectify, and learn from them.	artdutra04	nehalita
	It's just a game.	artdutra04	Billfred
	If only all this food for thought happening in this thread could somehow be funneled into solving world hunger...	artdutra04	Pat Fairbank
	Sleep? What is sleep?	artdutra04	Billfred
	If 100 people from ChiefDelphi all wrote one full article on something that they are an 'expert' in, FIRSTwiki would be even better.	artdutra04	Astronouth7303
	Unfortunately, you cannot always tell when some things are jokes on forums, because we only can rely on text and a limited number of smilies.	artdutra04	Billfred
	What? No Poof balls as pillows? Phfff. Amateur. :p	artdutra04	Billfred
	I love science. :D	artdutra04	Billfred
	Ohh the [strike]humanity[/strike] robotity!	artdutra04	Noah Kleinberg
	No one said that this would be easy. And if they did, they were obviously refering to a little red button from Staples and not to FIRST.	artdutra04	Billfred
	Do not treat Vex and FLL as inferior because they may not get as much exposure as FRC on these boards. Just remember, FLL has seven times more teams than FRC from twenty additional countries.	artdutra04	Ian Curtis
	Why is it whenever you tell someone there is a million billion stars in the universe they believe you, but if you tell someone that the bench over yonder has wet paint, or if usfirst.org comes up as the 1st result in Google people have to try it for themselves?	artdutra04	Joe J.
	Coming up next on Pimp My Ride.....Yo man, here is the real deal. A two-oh-oh-six Segway I-one-eighty, with stock rims, stock fenders, and two 3 horse motors that red-line at twelve point five miles per hour. Get ready, because I'm going pimp this ride!	artdutra04	Rohith Surampudi
	Part of being an effective leader is knowing your own personal limits.	artdutra04	KathieK
	Uncle Sam wants you to watch NERD Vision.	artdutra04	Jessica Boucher
	A lot of people forget this when posting, but your posts here on ChiefDelphi will more or less be here forever. Do you really want that post you just be made to be on the Internet forever?... Post wisely...	artdutra04	Karthik
	When everyone is exactly even, who do you look up to for ideas and inspiration?	artdutra04	Andy Baker
	Instead of lowering a team's expectations, let's raise the amount of competitive resources available to them. ;)	artdutra04	Andy Baker
	Yellow bananas are the new red herrings.	artdutra04	dlavery
	Someone should make FIRST fortune cookies, because I think I just thought of a good one.	artdutra04	StephLee
	Act humble, avoid hubris, and post widely and thou shalt receivith postive rep. ;)	artdutra04	dlavery
	Scoring ringers is going to be like dating. While a select few will master it with relative ease, the vast majority will need quite a bit of time to refine their skills to an acceptable level.	artdutra04	Jeff Rodriguez
	I've been inspired for real engineering during the build season and on the playing field, but the inspiration I found in the pits is often for creative thinking and intuition.	artdutra04	jgannon
	The final product, the inspiration, it all that matters. Awards and championships are just bling.	artdutra04	Billfred
