280 (New Friends via Old Friends)
This came for me in the mail today from Carmel, who you may or may not remember from our rapidly-abandoned attempt at movie-review-blogging. A note that accompanied this robot alludes to the fact that it had been in her possession for "literally" years, awaiting its transfer-of-ownership to me. I do not know why someone would consciously deprive me of a robot, but let me make this clear to anyone reading this who might currently be harboring a robot they plan on bestowing upon me at some point in the future: do not wait, give me all the robots.
P.S. what I mean to say is, thank you very much Carmel for this robot, it is awesome.
Also, for people who like weird technology happenings, I took this picture a little before 11p.m. EST, but my digital camera's internal clock is two hours ahead of Actual Time, so this is what the image file's metadata looked like when I first loaded it onto my computer, proving that - like so many things on this website - the future is Now.
