If getting a #Flushot, or some other #immunization, pls never, ever put the decision to an eligible child all of a sudden-It all but GUARANTEES the outcome. If we must discuss it, that is fine. We can make time. Otherwise it amounts to a set up.
Love,

A picture of me looking sincere touching my hand to my heart from my special Positive Reinforcement (named above). "There is something inviting to a comedian who puts this much work into his craft, and if you like your comedians clever and your words played with, you will be very happy with Positive Reinforcement."

I'm really thrilled to be mentioned in Vulture's "Five New Comedy Specials You Should Definitely Watch (When You Have a Moment)!" Read it all: www.vulture.com/article/new-...
