Warding Contest First Responders
First responders are heroes. We all know that. They’re the ones who get their hands dirty, and take the hits no one else has sack for. They fill the row of desks at the front of the class where it’s harder to goof off. They give mouth to mouth resuscitation to gross people with hairy lip-moles and bad breath. They run into burning buildings when everyone else is running out. They set the tone of the debate.
It takes stones to put yourself out there and be a first responder.

He also included a kickass “night” version:
The next hero is Francine from the UK, who writes:
Dear Peter,
I heard about your contest and think it’s a great idea and would be loads of fun to do so here’s my entry :D. It’s a picture of my guinea pig zucchini.
Finally we have the brave Lisa, who says:
Hi Peter, Hi Lauren,
I hope you like this one. It’s a picture of me with a mindwarp.
Have a nice day
Lisa
