1. we begin with a clip of eric waving to the camera and smiling.
2. the camera pans to jamo standing there waiting to walk for the first time
3. the camera zooms out to have a full screen shot of eric and jamo
4. eric presses the button and the gears begin to turn and the legs tremble
5. then, at the last second, eric reallizes that there's no ballencing system!
6. eric tries to stop the unweilding maching, but alas, it is too late
7. fade to black
8. a short dedication to jamo is givin and Princes 'when doves cry' plays
9. fade to white

see this is what happens when you don' think ahead!
but this is all just an unimaginative way of puting it, and besides, eric
thinks of almost every possible thing that could happen to his babies, even
this censored version of my vision, the uncensored version would take
forever to type

Originally Jama was going to walk using the Hexapod gait. The Mecha would
always stand on 3 legs at a time. The stability of always standing on one
Tripod was what would have made walking possible. But now, I'll have to hire
a team of programmers to keep up with the computations necc. to make the
bipedal Mech walk on it's own. Dang, I so wanted Jama to fetch me a drink
when I was dry. ;) I get pretty dry too after building all evening.

good luck big E, hope you find this amusing rather than scornful, which it
isn't, the scornful part, not the amusing part, by that i mean it is
supposed to be amusing, not scornful, ohh, you get the idea right?

It's cool - I love it. We gotta be able to laugh at ourselves once in a while.
Now there is one last frame that comes into play, the screen fades to black
and you hear a crash sound!....and a wrererer ereewererwrr motor sound.

Good news is I managed to build part of the chest, it looks real cool. I
want to work on it more before I take pix. I also completed the first set of
mechanics for the hips. Essentially just like the shoulders. I was hoping to
work on it today, but alas, my Tooth is KILLLING ME! Guess who's gonna be
first on line at the Dentist office tommorrow! Can't build Mecha when your
newly installed crown is painful.

But then I'll work on making Jama do the "Electric Slide"!

Thanks Jacob, sometimes I think your almost as wack as I am!
That's a good thing!

Kiiiiiiyyyaaaa!!!!

Gahhh that would be funny! What song do you want it to "Jama" to! ;)
I thought about Stevie Wonder's song "Mama Jama"!!! LOL!

On the up note, the Hex design study will prove vauable when I use the
technique on the Super Mech-Bot, yeah!! Then we'll see some walk'n Sophie Mecha!

MechaStruct is on!
