This is for Dennis right? Cindy's petered out?
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Oh, and the Red Cross is suffering a critical blood shortage, "with some areas of the country falling below a one-day supply of blood."
Because these days when I hear of something awful happening my first thought is "Wonder if I can give blood?" I don't imagine it will help anyone overseas, but it's a reminder, anyway.
They particularly need O, A-negative, and B-negative.

I totally missed this! Why?
Dunno. Saw it mentioned on my f-list, and that there was a frenzy of posting going on as a result. Hadn't checked it out, though.

For women, a donor must weigh at least 175 pounds and be at least 5'5" tall."
interesting. the BMI for that is 29.1, which is on the high side of overweight. (30 being clinically obese)

I'd love to give blood, but they're afraid that i might have mad cow. (though I suppose if they exported my blood to england, that wouldn't be an issue)

I am A-negative and can't give blood, and it makes me crazy. I know my blood type is always in demand. Feh.

I don't get how they figure out BMI just from height and weight. What about muscle mass? Doesn't that count?
I can't give blood now because I'm in an HIV vaccine study.
