Our daughter's school is having a blood drive today and me and Mrs. BabyCheezits thought about signing up. It's been on my bucket list I just haven't done it yet.
Just curious if many members of JWN have donated?

Yes it was one of the first things I did after I left. Donated 2 or 3 times per year for quite a long time.

I'm still "in", but if there were a place I could go (locally), where no one would find out, damn skippy I’d donate.

I knew some sisters who were Cuban Boat People and they ALWAYS cut their fingers and bled onto a stone. The stone ABSORBED the blood. They were never, to my knowledge ever even counseled for doing that. I have donated when I was told of a particular need. Screw the wt.

Regular donor here. It's not a big deal. If the attendent is good (And they're usually very, very good) you hardly feel it.
If it's your first time, try not to look at the needle though.
Best donation ever: The closest center is in a little strip mall and a JW came in doing business territory (Or whatever they call it) while I was hooked up. The look on his face was priceless. It couldn't have been better if I had been Gomez Adams in the flesh.
