Those blood-sucking parasites that call themselves the Red Cross came around today. The local co-coordinator caught me at a weak moment and I signed up.
It was my first second time. The first time I nearly passed out and they had to abort. That was many years ago. Needles and I just don’t go together well.
But the last few times I have had blood drawn or gotten an injection, they haven’t had the traditional physical effect on me. I thought I would be fine.
I did pretty well, until they were done. When I got up to leave, they asked me how I felt. I told them I felt a little woozy, but that I would be fine. They requested I lie back down.
Eventually I recovered sufficiently to go back into the office and resume normal operation.
One thing that struck me was all the questions they ask. One stuck in my mind, “Have you had sex with another man since 1977?†That’s an easy one, as I have NEVER had sex with another man! Perish the thought!
But, it made me wonder. They don’t want the blood from homosexuals. With today’s political correctness, it is obviously from a public safety concern.
Perhaps someone could tell me why the homosexual lifestyle is considered safe.

Someone explain to me why trips to London are considered safe.
