A Quick Note from The Good Doctor: "PSA: Magic Words Go a Long Way"

Doc here with a Public Service Announcement from The Journal and most importantly, your old friend in the white suit and aviators.

Remember growing up, and your parents telling you about the two magic words that when used, get things done?  Please and Thank You. Yeah, me too. 

This morning I received a request for information via e-mail from a very occasional contributor to The Journal. It's probably the 8th request in the last 3 days to The Good Doctor for intel that will make an adult theater visit fruitful for the e-mailer. And like the 7 requests before his, two words were missing from the request

Please & Thank You . 

After biting my tongue, I sent along the info requested, with a thanks for the request. It'll be the last time I respond to any info request without a Please and/or a Thank You.


So, the next time you fire off an e-mail or DM to The Good Doctor with the only words "Any good Florida spots?", you most likely will receive the sound of crickets in return.  

Words of advice: Please be polite. You might be amazed at the intel I might be able to provide you in this thing of ours. Info you most likely would not find anywhere else. 

Thanks for taking the time to read this PSA.
