this is so stupid, that you normally have to pay for it in the US. idiotic system

[ryzh]

agreed. here is a chance not to pay:) hence, it's a little less stupid:)
i think it's an easy way to help a person in terrible need. no?:)

[vityokr]

yeah, i totally agree with you. i've signed up for it in the uk, here they actually came to our office and did everything on site. free of course

you know the problem with this is that only whites are doing this. minorities are totally not represented in the bone marrow banks. my friend's wife needs it, she's asian - they can not find a match

[vityokr]

funny enough - in our own family the white person (me) did it, the somewhat-asian (my wife) didn't wanna go through with it :)

A так по существу :-) скажу прямо: то, что «распоряжается» человеком, приходит к нему, а не исходит из него.

привет, Вы мне посоветовали 2е парикмахерские. учитывая что мы видимо соседи ибо обе там где я живу, точно пойду в одну из них - а есть какой-то конкретный мастер к которому Вы ходите (и возвращаетесь) :)
пасиб и пардон за приставучесть:)
с наступающим!

hi, sorry, i ws traveling last week.
Redge - i go to Regina, the owner for hair color and a cut.
the other salon - i'm a huge fan of Miki, with a chubby japanese girl (can't remember her name) my second favorite.
i go to them interchangably. they all do a decent job, but if you are looking for super-star materials they are probably not "it'. just very decent jobs.
