philosophy dedicated to, as it were revealing the purposelessness of life. For
in directing ourselves toward a goal, we invarianbly point our attention ahead
and outside, of the present moment, and as my father was fond of saying. "If the
goal of dancing were to reach a certain spot on the floor, then obviously the
fastest dancer would be the best. The point of dancing is the dance itself." And
so it is with life."

That's too bad for ya'll I guess.

Here they give you some money every time you donate (no more than twice a week) and the amount is different depending on who you donate to and when you come.

Today I made $40.

I'm honestly not sure. I once donated blood but all I got was a baseball t-shirt and free tickets to a game that I gave away.

I wonder if Sperm Donors get anything?
