I finally tracked down DG and offered him the second Covid shot.
He wasn’t having anything to do with it.

“Well”, I said, “what if I drew the needle a bit smaller?”

“Still not convinced? How about this one?”

“I can only go down so far, you know. My pen is too thick to get a good drawing of it”.

We finally came to an agreement.

“Don’t get cocky, DG”, I said. “I can still draw you with a sore arm”.
