Give em up
I was gonna get on here and throw some baseball pool knowledge at you that you probably didn't want to read anyway, but then something else came along and saved you. Of course I'm just saving that baseball stuff for another day, but at least this is a little different.

There was a report on the news tonight about organ donation. In Ontario last year there was only about 150 total organs donated. The problem is that not many people have a signed organ donation card so when their time comes to punch out even if you wanted to donate they can't legally take anything. Unlike the illegal organ donation where you just wake up in a tub full of ice with a pain in your side.

Unless you have a strong religious, moral or logical reason for not wanting to give up your junk once you're no longer using it, sign your card. And make sure your family and/or significant other(s) know what you want done too, just in case. Think about it if you were on the other side of the table and you needed a little sumthin sumthin replaced, you'd be hopeing someone out there had their card signed. Right? Right.

Okay thats all I'm gonna say about that. I'll be back in a day or two talking about what I hate Travis Hafner and why I'm afraid of Mark Prior.

Comments:
I don't know, but I think if a person doesn't have a signed donor card they have to consult the will to see if there is anything in it regarding donation. If there is nothing there I think you just have to trust your family to honour your wishes.
 
i'm not signing shit all.

do my organs have to be like 90%+ healthy or something?

and don't you have to be like 99.7% dead for them to take the organ out cos like they don't want organs from a fully dead body?

(these are accurate numbers in case you're wondering)
