I'm left coast. =)

Got home from the party and prepared to enjoy TAR. My recorder didn't want me to have any more merriment. =( Imagine my disappointment.

Thanks for the recap but tell me about the robots, they look cool.

That was a fun looking challenge. Gramps & Grandson had to control two little robots by using cellphones. They each had to get their robot to kick a little soccer ball into the goal. (The goals were also protected by little robots, operated by Japanese experts with more advanced remote controls.)

Grandson figured his out fairly quickly, but Gramps' bot spent most of it's time on it's back--lol. With a little coaching, Gramps finally (miraculously) got his bot to slowly roll the ball into the goal :)
