New Recruits: Robots

BBC NEWS | Technology | Four robotic racers cross desert

Remember those robots that fought in the first Star Wars prequals? You don't, because that movie was horrible... Well then it looks like our wars are going to be fought by robots in the future, noone is ever going to have to wonder through Iraq with a gun again. Johnny-5 will be out there killing all the terrorists. Believe it. It is going to be a reality before we know it.

HAROLD SHOW!!

The Strange Bedfellows will be performing a long form, Harold style improv show this Sunday. Come to Bates college campus and find the Silo(Benjamin E. Mays Center) at 10PM. We will be performing for just about an hour. If you don't know what a Harold is let me tell you...

We take a one word suggestion.

Someone does a monologue based on the suggestion, they tell some personal stories that the suggestion makes them think of.

We use the ideas and stories as inspiration for our improv scenes.

We do several scenes that will seem completely discconnected but by the end they will make total sense (not really, more like in a weirdly, random way).

Come see what its all about.

Sunday, 10PM, The Silo
