And the deaf can take both of my ears if they don't mind the size

Remember John Prine’s Please Don’t bury Me?

“
Venus De Milo can have my arms, look out, I’ve got your nose

Sell my heart to the junkman and give my love to Rose.”

Maybe I’ve just got a twisted sense of humor, but that’s what I thought
about when I read this article about the often-rumored and now-admitted
organ harvesting from condemned prisoners in China.

BEIJING — After years of denial, China has acknowledged
that many of the human organs used in transplants here are taken from
executed prisoners and that many of the recipients are foreigners who
pay hefty sums to avoid a long wait.

Speaking at a conference of surgeons in the southern city of
Guangzhou, Deputy Health Minister Huang Jiefu called for a strict code
of conduct and better record-keeping to stem China’s thriving illegal
organ trade, state media reported.

Kind of gives a whole new meaning to I Left My Heart .......
