Piece Description
Will Cole's an interesting fellow and he likes asking interesting questions. Here's one in particular: "If you had a pint of blood that you couldn't donate, what would you do with it?" Some responses are morbid, others are thoughtful, and others are just plain weird. But maybe the bigger question is this-- why the hell's he asking the question to begin with?

Review of Will's Question
I like this piece! It's pretty simple, but rather well put together, and Will's enthusiasm is really fun to listen to. The question is odd, the answers are weird, and the reason... uh, well... you don't NEED a reason.
