No, but I have a piano I can let go for cheap........

Not pricks, but definitely selfish. And I certainly don't want to hear any of that "culture of life" stuff from non-organ donors.

I couldn't care less what is done with my body when I'm dead. Give the organs to those who need them and burn up the rest. I won't be there to care. But if somebody else doesn't want to, that's fine. Everyone has their reasons.

It would actually make some sense though if the option was either be a donor or not have the option of receiving donated parts.

That's sort of interesting. I wonder how many people who are "freaked out" by being a donor or would never do it for religious, philosophical, or other reasons, would not being willing to receive a donated organ because of those same reasons.

I reckon since the choice would likely be between getting an organ transplant or dying, they would gladly accept the donated organ.

Like I said earlier in this thread, I definitely wouldn't want another person's organ in my body, even if I was dying.

I don't know how girls can do it.

Ryche stole my thunder. When I'm dead, gut me, take whatever can possibly help someone, burn the rest, and scatter my ashes in a bunker at Whistling Straits.
