Default Go give blood.

today was my day to give blood, so I thought I would annoy some of you....from the time I walked in, answered all those goofy ass "sex with guys" since 1977 questions (are blow jobs okay?).... took my blood pressure, gave blood, drank a grape juice and was back in my truck in about 20-25 minutes....

Hopefully some of you can spare 20-25 minutes too.?

I'd love to, but I keep getting tattoos and you can't donate for at least 12 months after getting one.

So you can't give blood if you lived out of the country? What about the military? Our family was stationed in Belgium and Panama. I can never give blood?
