You are so funny and you actually inspired me to do something great with my life. Normally "speakers" that come to our school don't have that effect on me but Michael you did. I cannot wait until you come back next year!!-- Jr. High Student, Mason, Ohio
My sister is in the 3rd grade and she LOVED your performance. She says you do the best Scooby-Doo impression ever! Haha! Thanks for making that experience special for her. She really loved it. All of my friends think you’re really great, and they loved you too.
