Johnny got his flu shot!

Thanks to Amy and Steve from MedPro Pharmacy in Melissa for coming in Monday morning and giving everyone their seasonal flu shots. Johnny had his done on the air and got a very cool Scooby Doo Band-Aid. He said it didn't hurt at all.

The Centers for Disease Control say the following people should get the shot.

They are either people who are at high risk of having serious seasonal flu-related complications or people who live with or care for those at high risk for serious seasonal flu-related complications.

People who should get the seasonal vaccine each year are:

Laws of Attraction

Good Morning. Here is some interesting info from the John Tesh Radio Show.

Science-Based Laws of Attraction

The laws of attraction are based around science. It’s not a very romantic notion – but knowing some of the subconscious reasons we’re attracted to one person over another could help you find the love of your life. Here’s your chemistry lesson, courtesy of Women’s Health magazine.

•First off, you’re more likely to pair up with someone who’s just as attractive as you are. According to Dr. Helen Fisher, who wrote the book Why Him? Why Her?, people tend to be drawn to others on their same physical level – think Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. Why? The reason isn’t very romantic – but it’s the truth: Subconsciously, we want to be successful in love. We want to pair off, and we know if we choose someone who’s on our level, we’re less likely to get rejected.

•We’re subconsciously attracted to people who have similar sounding names. Why? Dr. Kevin Hogan wrote the book Irresistible Attraction and he says it’s because we’re conditioned to like what feels familiar. So you’ll often find couples with sound-alike names, or similar initials. If you don’t, couples will often give each other sound-alike pet names. Maybe he calls her bunny and she calls him bear. That can achieve the same bonding effect.

•We’re also attracted to people who share our quirky habits. If on your first date you discover that you both love anchovies but hate mushrooms on your pizza, bam! Chemistry. Why? According to Dr. Hogan, we admire people who mirror our idiosyncrasies. We feel they understand us and it creates an instant bond.

•We’re drawn to people we want be like. We’re attracted to people who have traits we admire – but may lack. Why? Dr. Pepper Schwartz is a sociology professor at the University of Washington, and she says it’s because they keep us balanced. So a wall flower may be more attracted to a social butterfly. The positive trait that you admire in your partner often rubs off on you.

You can listen to John Tesh every night at 7pm on 97.5 KLAK.
