That is good! As one who has had the need for blood, I thank you and the others who take the time to donate blood.

You're welcome, Akuma.

I started the platelet donations in May of 2005, with the goal of earning a 10-gallon cowboy hat the next year. At that time, I was at 6 gallons and 6 pints. Each platelet donation is worth two pints per visit. In no time, I made it to 10 gallons, which occurred a year ago last month.

It helps others as well. And if anybody is not a member of the Bone Marrow Registry, please sign up. You never know if someone is in need of it and you could be a big life-saver to recipients.

A platelet donation takes one to two hours. If the local blood bank has facilities where you can watch movies while you are donating, go for it.
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. Psalm 119:105

I hate it when they draw more than 2 cc of blood from me at one time via a single needle poke. A pint is more than I could stand. Even if I watched 10 movies.

I would also like to announce Tyreay's promotion to "Super Moderator" status.

So where was the post to vote on who we thought should be moderators?

First of all congratulations to the very fine men given these promotions.

And Yagmi, I am guessing that was not a very serious question, but the truth is, moderation should not be handed out as if it is a popularity contest. It surely could turn into a few feisty threads if folk were given to nominate, campaign and then ultimately vote for their moderators at any forum!

Please don't lecture me.. I know what the truth is and I know it isn't a "popularity" contest... damn....it was not a serious question.. you people jump at the first chance to lecture someone... get a sense of humor.
