    It's Russell Crowe's prosthetic device from The Gladiator.

    And it's extra-glad to see you.

    I'm going to take this moment to thank you guys.

    Truely, I appreciate you more than you can imagine.

    Why?

    Because just at the moment when I begin to think that I am as big a nerdy geek as one can be :blink: ....you guys come out with something like this thread. The reassurance that there are people even nerdier than myself let me go on each day!

    You people crack me up! Thanks. :lol:

    This is my 9-year old daughter's first robot that she built with Lego Mindstorms just yesterday! It is named Speedy.

    I enjoy raising the next generation of nerd...

    LOVE the way PC is in the background!

    Props to your daughter!

    Unlike me when I was young, she doesn't seem to have built a robot for the explicit purpose of killing small animals....

    ...yet...

    YES! I burned my grandma's bed when I was 9 with my first chemistry set. I loved the way alcohol burned "blue", thus decided the perfect surface for it, would be the back of a hardcover book, on the floor, by my grandma's bed, near the curtains...

    Thankfully, there was a gallon jug full of water in the kitchen sink. Needless to say, that was NOT a fun night...

    (I'm not making this up either)

    How about this one? It's from a British TV series of the 60s.

    I'm stumped on both of these. I did however, find one of my favorite movie memories to share....

    Long live the ORB! [attachmentid=845]

    Ah, yes, Sleeper.

    Mine was from the 60s Gerry Anderson (Stingray, Thunderbirds) puppet series Supercar. The episode was "Lost City."

    I was able to see the properties of your posted image, went to your photobucket pages and see that the image was called Lost city. I did some googling to come up with Thunderbirds, but I just got stuck there. Could not make any more connections.

    I am running into a bunch of dead ends on Mystery Squids cyborg, looks like a star trek door to me, and looks movie modern, but that's about it.

    And above that is Rosie (I think that was her name) from the Jetsons. I betcha the picture came from JeffBots.com, a pretty good site for sleuthing these images....

    Here is a robot named Priss! http://www.cs.sfu.ca/news/index.cgi/articl...05-06-15-8.html (somewhat inside joke)

    Good Lord!

    I'm tempted to say, Marvin, the Paranoid Android from Hitchhiker's Guide, but Douglas Adams would have been around 10 years old in the 60's... Hmmm...

    Wow, some of the shiat you guys dug up is impressive...
