Bryan Truta / JACK's Big Breakfast

So here we are, 2008!

If you want to start your new year off by doing a great thing for humanity, go right now to your local Community Blood Center and give the gift of life.

We are in the middle of "The Battle of the Broadcasters" where all of our sister Cumulus Media stations are battling for your blood. You could win an HD Radio from Cumulus and NW Audio in Platte City.

You may have heard me broadcasting live from the Community Blood Center earlier today. Since I am O+ they really needed my blood! Don't worry, it doesn't hurt....believe me, I'm the world's biggest pansy and it didn't affect me one bit! In fact, I've given enough blood that today I was awarded my "1 Gallon" pin.

Can you believe that? Go home tonight and look at the milk jug in your refrigerator....then think how many people have been helped by that blood. But think, it also goes quickly. A gallon of life. How's that thought to kick off a new year?
