FOR SALE

As the economy worsens in Michigan, more of the state's residents are opting to supplement their income by participating in medical studies and selling their hair, eggs or plasma. The number of plasma donations in the country has increased from 10 million in 2005 to more than 17.5 million in 2008, an official from the Plasma Protein Therapeutics Association said. Sixty plasma clinics opened in the U.S. last year, the official said.

"So keep fightin' for freedom and justice, beloveds, but don't you forget to have fun doin' it. Lord, let your laughter ring forth. Be outrageous, ridicule the fraidy-cats, rejoice in all the oddities that freedom can produce. And when you get through kickin' ass and celebratin' the sheer joy of a good fight, be sure to tell those who come after how much fun it was." - Molly Ivins 1944-2007
