Caption Contest: Albert Hubo humanoid bot thinks he's so smart
We saw a bad photoshop mock-up of this floating around the internets a few days ago, but we didn't think anyone had actually been crazy enough to build it. This humanoid robot named Albert Hubo walks, talks, shows emotions all disembodied Einstein style, and gives us the absolute heebie-jeebies.
Ryan: "That's right 'Steiney. World-changing intellectual, Nobel Prize-winning physicist, head grafted to an
immortal robot body, total silver fox. Why, hello miss…"
Paul: "I'm real glad and all that you guys decided bring me back to life after 50 years of peace and quiet, but giving
me the body of a 6 year old in a space suit doesn't really win you any points."
Marc: "It's not the robot bod I mind; it's the mullet. Please, someone get me a barber!"
Evan: "Yahoo Serious, older but hardly wiser, reflects upon the evils of typecasting."

Just because every lame Einstein caption you've seen in your life sports E=mc, doesn't mean we have to go there; unless of course you happen to have a working knowledge of the implications of the formula, and would like to rock the geek factor.

Why Heloooooo, Ladies. I may be gray-haired, but they replaced a few parts with updated hydraulics, if you catch my drift.

The cybernetics students from Osaka University were delighted with the success of their prank, but the shock of waking in an unfamiliar robot body turned Yanni's hair completely white.

Albert Hubo; half the height, half the brainpower, but pick up skills equal to mass times the speed of light squared.

Looks like Matt Groening was right, our heads will be back. That means that Nixon's Head could be president again: http://www.gotfuturama.com/Information/Encyc-44-Richard_Nixons_Head/ the law clearly states no body can be elected more than twice.

Dear Alex Dorph:
I will assume your comment was sarcastic. This was a man that posed with his tongue sticking out for the press. I hardly think that he took his image as seriously as you do his.
