Default The nicest people in Rocky!

I spent some time in the company of some of the nicest people in Rocky yesterday afternoon. I knew many of them and they were all friendly and in a good mood as usual. These are really good people and heros, every last one of them.

You see I was at a blood donor clinic. We were all giving the gift of life. We were all saving the lives of complete strangers who we will never see and will never get a nickle or a "thankyou" from. But we feel good about what we do.

Try it some time.

I used to donate here in Deardfull all the time, then some brainiac decided that we did'nt rate a donor clinic anymore.
I have'nt donated a drop since.
I agree that the clinics had a family reunion atmosphere.

I think the Mosquitoes had the saying first "Blood its in you to give"

True donating blood is a good thing.
