Posted 6/6/2011 at 3:00 pm by

Fathers of the world, we salute you. Today we start our Five Days of Father’s Day Giveaways! Everyday this week there will be a new giveaway and they keep getting better and better.

The first giveaway is the Samson Meteor Mic. It’s a stylish, chrome-plated, foldable USB Mic perfect for home studio and recording music on your computer. The Meteor Mic is also ideal for Skype, iChat or voice recognition software. So start talking.

Here’s the cool features:

  • Features one of the largest condenser diaphragms (25mm) of any USB mic available to produce rich, CD quality recordings
  • Fold-back leg design allows for the optimal positioning for any recording application
  • A stereo 1/8-inch headphone output, no latency monitoring, and headphone volume knob give user complete control
  • No drivers are required, allowing users to start recording right out of the box
  • $99.99 at Best Buy

To win, tell us the craziest baby name you ever heard.  Did your wife wanted to name your baby “Moon Unit” like Frank Zappa? Also tell us what you’d use the Meteor Mic for. One winner will be selected at random.

Contest closes Monday June 13th.

Be sure to provide a legit e-mail address when you comment so we can contact you.

Sorry, U.S. contestants only.

    I wanted to name my first born son Lebron James. My wife would not go for it. I told her to imagine the awesome Bar Mitzvah our child was going to have with a name like that. She still wouldn’t go for it.

    The weirdest name I’ve heard someone wanting to name their child was FUCK. He wanted to do it to piss off society and force everyone to use the word. I’d use the mic with Skype.

    The craziest baby name I have heard of is “Pilot Inspektor” from the parents of Jason Lee and Beth Riesgraf. And I have to mention the children of Frank Zappa and Gail Zappa for good measure; Moon Unit, Dweezil, and Diva Muffin Zappa (girl, boy, girl).

    I would use it to record all the stupid things my co-works and I say at work. I just wouldn’t let them know that the mic is real.
