		Many months ago, Sam made up a game where he'd dunk his head under the water, hold his breath as long as possible, and he'd show up in some other time.
		Sam had a great time running around like a maniac for most of the time.
		Sam's second tooth has been dangling by a thread for a couple weeks now.

		"Sam" is a three foot tall robot that looks like a cross between a street sweeper and an industrial coffee machine.
		After stopping to turn a corner as normal, Sam performed his regular 90-degree pivot only to suddenly accelerate from his normal speed of a slow walk to a 15 mile per hour sprint.
		As Sam backed up to complete his turn, the Sergeant fired a bullet through the controls of his drive system, bringing him to a halt at last.

		The robot Sam had four gangly metallic limbs, an almost nonexistent trunk, and an oversized, upside-down triangular head with huge camera eyes.
		She turned and saw the robot sweep its hand along the bench top in search of the beaker that was rolling at its feet.
		The robot would be recalled and because it was an old model-nearly eight years out of date-it would either be scrapped or resold on the secondhand market.

	Sam's Archive - It, Robot (part 1)
		As a number of unfortunate aircraft pilots discover, all our "conventional weapons" are totally useless against their "shields", because they "just absorb the energy to make themselves stronger" (yeah, right).
		So, predictably, a couple of hours later the DOD comes knocking on Ed's door saying "Hey, could we like, borrow your amazing, flying, all-conquering gigantic robotic war machine?" And Ed goes "Use the one you've got" and we laughed in their faces, coz it served them right.
		So when he shows me the keyboard and mouse interface that he's worked out, I figure this could be a pretty interesting week.

		Without a doubt, it was one of the highlights of machinima at the time; and a year on, 'Killer Robot' parts 1 through 4 have again reset the boundaries of quality for the medium.
		The models and sets are relatively simple – little robots wandering about the surface of Mars, collecting data and – as you'll see as the story progresses – getting up to other things as well.
		The plot revolves around 3 main characters – Sam, a staid and loyal machine; Mira, the cheerfully chaotic pickaxe-wielding robot who turns Sam's ordered life on its head, and Cato, Sam's 'boss', a robot with a remarkably imaginative method of locomotion and a penchant for over-the-top theatrics.

	Sam
		Sam and Jamie went to preschool together this morning, as she was the helper parent for the day.
		Sam spontaneously moved his two fingers in front of him and said to her, "You will come upstairs and play with me." Sadie was initially confused, then I explained that he was using the Jedi mind trick on her.
		Sam was off for a walk in the forest, where he was captured by spiders and put in a cave.

	Sam's B9 Robot (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		As a collector of vintage toys, the coolest toy I could ever think of owning would be a full-size replica of the B9 robot from the 1960s TV classic Lost in Space.
		The original robot was actually a costume worn by actor Bob May, so a replica can either also be a costume or can include animation created using motors, actuators, and electronics.
		But it wasn't until July, 2004 that I truly took the plunge and joined the B9 Robot Builders Club and started gathering parts and doing research.

	What do you think about Sam the Robot? - Muppet Central Forum
		Hello, when I saw Sam the Robot for the first time in early November of 2002, my inside got scared of him, because I never watched him in my youth and in my young teen period!
		I believe that Sam the Robot's first appearance was with Susan and the second Gordon (Hal Miller).

	Intuitor - Insultingly Stupid Movie Physics
		During the presentation I converse with SAM (actually a student talking through a transmitter), SAM does a little dance, and we crack a few robot jokes about how he is also a romantic—he has a thing for the copy machine.
		SAM was designed and built for a FIRST robotics competition in six very intense weeks by a team of about a dozen students and almost as many engineers.
		When we make future presentations, our robotics team will have to worry not just that we could accidentally mislead our audience but that they have already been mislead and we might accidentally reinforce their misconceptions.

		Secondly, try and find out where the robot came from, what IP addresses or DNS domains, and see if they are mentioned in the list of active robots.

	Progressive Ears Album Reviews
		"Sam the Robot" is a melancholy electronic tune composed for the movie short of the same title, an equally affecting movie (recommended, and available for viewing at the SEeKing Dawn official site: http://www.seekingdawn.com.)
		Also, just for fun is "Sam the Robot: end titles (alternate)." This is listed as a game sound track, and it sounds very much like one (completely electronic), with quirky singsong vocals dispersed at irregular intervals.
		The track I recommend most is their newest, "The Changeling." This has by far the most proggy feel and conversely, the most chance (IMO) for commercial appeal, both in composition and song length.

		The robot was created to fulfill a dream: laying fiber-optic cable within city sewer systems.
		Robots, however, come in all shapes and sizes; and when the science fiction visionaries promised that some day robots would handle the dirty tasks that humans would abhor, well, this was exactly the sort of thing they were talking about.
		Somebody has to get the robot into the manholes, to build in the "slack boxes" that allow the connections from the fiber-optic network into buildings, and to take on other tasks, sometimes unpleasant.
