About This Item

W-D4D (First Autodidactic Droid)

These are Journal Writing Travel Bugs. A group of 5 unlikely friends, all beginning in the same cache, have decided to go their separate ways. Darth Vader is looking for love, W-D4D (First Autodidactic Droid) is looking for experiences, Optimus Prime is soul searching, Liberty (formerly known as Belle) is avoiding her Beast of an ex-husband, and Jacques le Sock is simply looking for a good time. They have all agreed to meet at a date to be determined sometime in the future.

Need input. Partly an attempt to revisit an old childhood hobby, partly an attempt to reach out to Optimus Prime, Vader and Optimus spent many an afternoon tossing back a few beers, retelling war stories, and putting together this curious fellow. W-D4D is the first Autodidactic Droid. He learns volumes from all of his experiences, big or small. He computes a log entry at the end of each experience. In Haiku.

If you are not willing to play and follow the log guidelines, please do not take these travel bugs.

Journal (Log) Entries for W-D4D must be written in Haiku form. (5 syllables, 7 syllables, 5 syllables) For example:

Robot like flowers
Blue sky is dark and cloudy
Droid like his new friends

We each composed a haiku for the droid.

Most robots don't hike
But this one enjoys nature
Quite odd for a droid
--JB

Droid calls us hither
In search of new adventures
His arms open wide
--NB

Biking on the Zim
Getting toward the end of it
