    In case anybody that posted some help\jokes for the team was curious, we competed in the East Super Regional out in Scranton from Friday - Sunday. Our team won 7 matches out of 9 and advanced to the World event in Detroit in late April. In the state tournament we had 4 static events in our 5...

    OT: Ya know what I hate?

    There was already a picture of it in this thread but I really hate people in stores that are oblivious to their surroundings. Pick your @$^#$ box of cereal and let me move past you lady. I hate people that can't push their shopping cart back to the little stalls. The people that have to gather...

    The Libyans are pretty upset with us over the whole plutonium mix up. I meet with them later at Twin Pines, I anticipate being able to smooth things over.

    OT: Looking for a house

    I grew up in Bound Brook and work right near Middlesex. I live out in Hunterdon county (Readington). Middlesex isn't a bad town, some nice restaurants, shops in town along 28, the schools are ok. To me it feels like any number of other small towns scattered around NJ. I guess I'd have to ask...

    I know everyone is dying for an update. We are 99% sure that we solved the issue. A neighbor of one of the team members parents is a pretty successful EE. He asked if he could see the robot. He looked, traced some wires, pulled out a high end multimeter and started taking down some numbers. It...

    @RW90 im pretty sure you won’t see us - we are FTC not FRC. Our state level events are done for the year now. I’m pretty sure your team is FRC. Our rules explicitly state that we can’t ground the robot to the field and there aren’t any measurements taken of grounds on the robot during...

    Thank you, I'll bring this up to the team. Some of the EEs that we are working with suggested something opposite of that - get everything connected to spread the charge and then isolate the electronics with insulators and ferrite chokes.

    OT: Any EE, ME, Chem.E, Comp Sci guys out there

    So this post will probably take the OT nature of out of season football posts to a new level. I'm involved with my daughters FIRST FTC robotics team. This is very similar to what many high school robotics teams compete in - its the same organization but the robots we build are smaller and open...

    OT: egg prices

    I have foxes, coyotes, owls, hawks, eagles and a bunch of other predators around. I watched a red tail hawk attack my coop a few months ago - exciting but no harm to the birds. Thus far the foxes and other ground based hunters have steered clear of the coop. My big dog tried to get a fox the...

    OT: egg prices

    If I remember right you have a big German Shepherd? We have a half GS half standard poodle mix and he is definitely interested in the coop. The coop is outside of his fenced piece of the yard so there is separation but if I walk him outside near it he wants to investigate...and likely eat the...

    OT: egg prices

    Buy some chickens people. When we buy eggs for scout outings, we'll go to WalMart and pay ~$6.50 for 5 dozen. They're pale yellow and from terrible source but you can feed 30+ people for about $15 with a box of those and a few other ingredients. I have 4 chickens. We've been getting 3 - 4...

    RUMLAX Preseason #7

    I'm pretty excited. My son started playing for the first time last year (he is 10) and we really enjoyed playing\watching the game. We went to see RU play once last year and it was a blast. For one of his Christmas gifts we picked up season tickets. For $100 we'll have 8 fun games to watch...

    Next year you should split the stuffing vote. Cooked in the bird or cooked separately.

    OT: ANNUAL FAVORITE THANKSGIVING FOOD POLL

    Nice, are you in NJ? I had one hawk swoop in for my birds, I guess his eyes weren't sharp enough to notice the cage around the side of the coop and he slammed into it. The chickens and hawk made some fun noises during that ordeal lol. The hawk flew and sat on my deck for a few minutes after...
