    "Lin, your writing makes me feel so taken care of." That's exactly it, yes.

    Talent crush.....that's the term I've been looking for. And true to form, you're younger than I am. ;-)
    Thank you, Wesleyan, for giving him this platform....and for helping to mold him in the first place.
    And thank you also for my new talent crush, Bill Sherman.

    There's a very old man sitting behind Lin on his left wearing a blue and white plaid (is that the word?) suit that is absolutely lovely. I'm not sure of the gentleman's name, but he's got some style!

    This was so good. So much meat in this speech. Always something meaningful to say. Listen... Thank you, Lin! You are my new son. I'm still trying to figure it out! I will! Congratulations on everything!

    When Lin speaks, I hang on every word, but look forward to the next. He takes care of everybody just by being himself. How lucky we are.......

      I probably will look like a freak, but we've talked under another Lin related video, and there are so many videos I watch, that I see your comments! Three times I tried to write under that Hamilton documentary, that if you want a pen pal from another part of the world, I would love to fill that role, but somehow those comments didn't go through. I think we would have plenty of things to discuss!
