Hi, my name is Steven Dunlap and I am the original inventor of SeeLippers –Animated Lighted House Slippers for everyone in the house!

I invite you to visit us at any one of the links and read Maegan’s Story and then you will understand what why and how I plan to make a difference in as many families battling cancer as I can with your support and purchases of SeeLippers. www.maeganseyes.org – www.seelippers.com – and www.stevendunlap.com Thank you and God bless you throughout this joyous Holiday Season.

Gear... L.A. Lights... http://sneakers.pair.com/lightup.htm You see kids running around with them all over the place now... not as cool as when they were first introduced. Hmm.. I wonder if they are going to integrate heelies (those shoes w/ a single wheel integrated in the heel so you can roll around) into some slippers... now that would be cool.... well, until you rolled down the stairs... but c'mon, the coolness factor is totally worth the risk. Imagine John Travolta in Heelies. These remind me of those shoes from L.A. Gear… L.A. Lights… http://sneakers.pair.com/lightup.htm

Why not cell phones? The flashlight on my old phone saved me a few times. You don't see it that often anymore. As for the slippers, I want ones that change colors as you walk.
