Beckah, I AM SO HAPPY YOU HEARD THAT GUY'S ACCEPTANCE SPEECH AT THE TONY'S! Did you also get a chance to see the scene from "The Spelling Bee"? Genius. Pure genius. Let's go to New York.

Willie, I WANT TO COME VISIT SO BAD! I'm trying to find a way!
I love you all, and now I'm going to go...marry someone.
