I always get told that my veins are awesome. It's probably the heroin.I sold plasma to get through grad school. Shortly after, they told me to quit donating blood because it was too hard to find a vein and they questioned my weight. (I weighed like 124 at the time, way over 110.).
Since I got roped into running these drives, a few years ago when they had a lull, I tried and they got a vein they liked and I have been good since. Even when I was in labor though, they always put the IV in my hand because the vein would roll away and was small in my arm.
OK. That's a cover story. Those things are always in the same neighborhood as the prostitutes, tattoos parlors and drugs.
Delta sent me 50 drink vouchers.....
The same types who post on boards like this. (Especially those who use Han Solo as their avatar).

I see again that the e-mail says that I should not hesitate to ask any questions that I might have.
I also suppose that the author was in no way trying to indicate that I could ask for the name of the leading candidate in order to dispose of him. Probably not, anyway.

Okay, fess up. Which RTT posters do you have on ignore?
The ones I can't read
Actually none that I know of, at least not the regulars. I have a few that were just belligerent imo and i blocked them about years ago. After a little, I realized whey i did it and left it.
If I was to ignore anyone on here it would probably be me.Okay, fess up. Which RTT posters do you have on ignore?
I have great veins...my problem is that my BP runs on the low side of normal, so when I donated whole blood they had to use a little pump device or I would have taken an hour to fill the bag.I've been told to get more vascular.
@carvers4math , are you familiar with the device I'm talking about? I haven't donated whole blood for over 25 years, so I'm not sure if they even use that anymore, and the apheresis uses a pump regardless...
The drawers love my veins, they will pop right up. Then they learn to dislike them after getting me started. I can be the last seated and will be done when many are at the halfway point that were there before me. They always think I'm going to pass out then and keep making me sit at the station longer.
Trying to hope it is good they haven’t jumped on offer but they could be haggling.

No idea, they usually just give slowpokes a stress ball. When they actually get my vein it goes fine and bp runs @ 102/68.
Moar cookies!

I understood that part. It was the part about the ISS is falling but moving so fast sideways it keeps missing the earth.
I used to get egg salad sandwiches when I went. Sadly a new group took over. One time it was shortly before Christmas. I got a sandwich, couple bowls of soup, an elderly lady in Auxiliary with my mom gave me an extra piece of pie the workers didn't eat. Wife didn't know why I absolutely couldn't eat supper when I got home.
Yeah, I didnt go that far. Was confused why the dumb one in here (me) already understood the mass/gravity thing and someone else wouldn't
