    I Like To Give A Shout Out
    To everyone that made mixtapes back in the day by having the cassette at the perfect position and waiting weeks until that song finally plays on the radio and then moving faster than the Flash to get across the room and simultaneously pressing down the play and record button. You are beautiful and I love you.
