And now, for the winners of the Light Product Review and Giveaway!

We couldn’t go past Drury Bynum as our pick for originality:

With the extra money generated from using Light, I would invest in efforts to learn to better communicate with animals. My office surrounded by trees and birds and every time I go outside they are chattering away. I know their language is complex and specific, like alerting one another when I’m around, “Brown Cap Man! Brown Cap Man.” Heck, they probably even make jokes about me, “Ugly shoes, bad choice, Ugly shoes, I’d go with purple”. Purple, I know, but birds like different colors than we do, that’s one thing I’ve learned.

It wouldn’t be just birds I’d learn to communicate with, there is also the opossum who comes around the house some nights. I’d love to ask him, “Wouldn’t you prefer some cat food rather than chewing on our recycling? I mean, you’re just reinforcing the image people have of you being an oversized rat. We could really work on your image, maybe add some accessories - sweatbands or something.” I really don’t know how the opossum might respond to that, they are hard to read, supporting the need for this research.

Lastly, the squirrels. I’ve always had a thing for squirrels and I feel I’ve already made some headway in communicating with them. I think I know how to say “white bread” and “giggle” in squirrel talk. What I’d really like to ask them about is time management. “Do you guys work like 70 hours a week, and if so, is it all nut collecting or do you include some leisure stuff? If so, what?” Once I thought I saw some squirrels doing some comedy improv, but they quit as soon as they saw me. That’s the kind of barriers I’d like to break down. To be able to say, “Oh, no, don’t mind me, proceed, proceed. I like what you’re doing”

I don’t think there are any specific tools I would buy with the extra money, save for some tiny microphones to record interviews. Most of it would be just to cover my expenses while I’m in the field, or the backyard, as it were.

And our random winner was Michael Shawn McCabe who would just like to make life a little sweeter:

I would initially tell myself (and others) that I would do something noble and intelligent with the extra money made by using Light. Then I would likely find myself spending a little extra on lunch, buying that next new CD, letting my beautiful daughter get that new toy, or having my wife rationalize that she “really needs” a new outfit. Life would continue to be sweet like that. Despite the most discerning intentions I would likely be content with my wonderfully easy-to-use CMS courtesy of Light and squander the savings for another rotation on this incredible Earth.

Thanks to all that entered, thanks to Light for the great giveaway, and we hope Drury and Michael enjoy their PRO-level websites!
