John, I got your message. Sounds interesting, but I won't have time to do any robot-building until November at the earliest!

As for moderating this topic, WHY? It's trash-talk, and that's the way it's meant to be. At least it's not political! (Well, except for all the commie/capatilist name-calling)

And won't you have to buy ANOTHER cheap $10 Wal-Mart car at 49MHZ in order to fight my 27MHZ robot? Just for the record guys, I got MY quality car at Radio Shack! 3 years ago!

Don't you remember Ben, mine is IR, so I can challenge anyone.

Your robot is IR? Does that stand for Incapacitated Recently? Or In Reconstruction? In Rehab? Or how about IT REEKS!!!

I'll look up that site...

John, I got your phone message. Yes, beer and robots sounds like a good weekend. You mentioned coming in the middle of this week, I'm gonna be gone most of the day Wednesday so the weekend's probably better.

I can't get Bowlatron's main weapon OR Queen-playing IC to work. I think if I do anything it's gonna be a full-blown custom-built airplane-radio controlled robot. Still shaped like a bowl though!

See ya this weekend! Mike even swept the barn!

Oh, one other thing John. Do you still have that VCD of "The Adventurous"? I'd like to post it on this site, and it'd be faster for you to bring the disc than for me to re-render it (it takes like 4 hours)

Thanks!

PS: Mike kinda wants his Jumpdrive as well.

btw, Ben, be sure to post a video of John's robot slipping on the banana peel, then getting destroyed by bowlatron :)

Ok then, can I just kick the hell out of bowlatron to get some action shots? Oh yeah, I have Mike's jump drive here, I'm holding it hostage until he pulls troops out of my country and/or pays war reparations:

Anyway, I'll look for your VCD. Oh yeah, the new psp kicks arse-ticles!!

John, I can't belive you're holding my jumpdrive hostage! For this there can be only one response! SCRANGER is coming out of retirement this weekend!
