No, I can't Yes, I got 3 "refills" after a horrible motorcycle accident where I had a smashed liver and other internal injuries. I got hepatitis from that, so I can't give.

yes no I also used to sell plasma when I was going to college. My arms looked like I was some kind of junkie, what with all the needle marks. The place where I used to give would give out donor cards so if you were stopped by the police and they questioned the needle marks...you could show them the card. It wasn't to bad for extra spending money. Thirty-five dollars for your first time and then fifteen to twenty dollars each additional time. You could only do it every other day though. It takes your body twenty-four hours to replace the plasma you donated/sold.

Good Morning TVCHers! Hope you're all having a great weekend! Here are the results of: 1. Have you ever donated blood? 2. Have you ever needed a blood transfusion? Today's question is: Have you ever went to the movies at a drive-in? I have! LOVE it!

Yes, but you gotta consider, I am 'of that age' where that is not too surprising. And I have stories to tell, too!!

Yes. We still have two in our area that operate every summer. Lots of fun! I saw Spider Man 2 and White Chicks on my last trip, lol. I remember at my first drive-in experience, when I was maybe 7 or 8??, I saw The Three Amigos and Spaceballs!

Yes - to see Towering Inferno. Don't remember much about the movie because my 10th grade boyfriend was a great kisser!

Yup, we used to go a few times each summer when we were kids. I was only 8 or 9 though when they closed the one here down.

Yes. The first time I went I saw King Kong (the Jessica Lange version), and the Bad News Bears. I was 6 and thought it was great to lay on a blanket on the roof of the car!

yep. loved the drive-ins. there were swingsets in front of where the cars parked, too. great junkfood in the little snack shack. the last time i went to the drive-in, ds was 18 months old. we could never find a sitter, so dh, ds and i went to one in san jose. both dh and ds fell asleep in the back of the station wagon and i watched the movies by myself! i remember so wanting to see 'watchers', by dean koontz, and they had totally messed with his book. the characters weren't even the same. i was bummed. bummed enough to drive off without taking the speaker out of the window! later, that drive-in got the system where you tuned it in on your radio. hard to drive off with a speaker that way! in high school, up in redding, we used to take a large pick up truck and put in lawn chairs and park it backwards. that was fun.

Yes! Great memories of childhood with us all piling into the station wagon in our jammies with a big bag of popcorn. Fun memories of high school and dating too!
