And some for fancy dress

But when they're held for pleasure

They're the balls that I like best

My balls are always bouncing

To the left and to the right

It's my belief that my big balls

Should be held every night

Like organ donation, there are ethical problems. There are companies that pay for plasma donations, my cynical POV says current blood donation organizations like the way it is, for whatever reasons.

hats off to you, blood donations measured in gallons rate much karma credit.

I was also tasked with coordinating and publishing the bi-annual ARC blood drive for our college district. I'd meet with the student governments at each campus so they'd get the word out to their peers. I sent emails and reminders and got posters made for the faculty and staff lounge areas. The students always made it worthwhile. Few faculty and staff, except at the main campus.

The most discouraging was the turnout at the administrative district offices: one year only eight people donated out of about 400 employees at that site.

Sad. sad. I also had problems encouraging blacks to donate. All sorts of issues, Tuekeege Experiment and other problems, not to mention an old white guys trying to talk them into donating. Sickle Cell Anemia patients, especially teenagers, often require total blood replacement therpy and while there are the various blood types, there are other markers that improve the match and only come from donars of the same race.

I solved the problem by recruting a young black woman to take over as blood drive coordinator.

When my son was born the birthing wasn't without incident. Later, the surgery went bad and she needed three pints. Pledged to give a gallon for every pint she needed. Achieved that. Not sure what my total is at.

Maybe the Red Cross sees is like sex. If you can get it for free, why pay for it.

I cannot think of a better way to give thanks, I'm in awe.

More like desperate, 😂 Some might even call it white guilt, but when something is just wrong and you have a chance to make it better you just have to act. It did lead to some (very) frank and interesting conversations with black people that might otherwise not have happened.

Also when you have a rightious cause, in your mind, it might get you thinking you have licence to be a a bully. It really doesn't, of course, and I knew I had to setp away before I ended up with premature carrier realingement.

I've never been too enthused by the fact that the Red Cross people are getting paid for doing what they do, but the donors get stiffed for the blood they give...

Unsure. Think it might be part of a package deal.

Get one free pint of blood with the purchase of a hospital Tylenol ($80 per).

Sorry, 8. I'm all done now

I do see your point. My father is on dialysis. They can have mine for free

I will agree some of the tests are a bit much but I guess they need good clean blood which makes sense.

Just the same I think any organs that are in good shape when a person passes should be donated. Someone can use them thangs.

great tune...no mention of "She's Got the Jack" or "She's Got Balls"?

=d>

She's got balls She's got balls She's got soul, my lady Likes to crawl, my baby All around the floor on her hands and knees Ooh, because she likes to please me But most important of all Let me tell you The lady's got balls She's got balls She's got balls She's got balls And she's got taste, my lady Pace, my lady Makes my heart race With her pretty face She's got balls...reminds me of a girl I knew way back when🌫

I think it'll bleed out before 500 posts.
