“Hey guys...GUYS...it’s Rafael here. Gina doesn’t know I stole her phone. Sssshh. She is kind of crabby today. It’s not fun. She keeps telling me to put on a shirt and eat something. You can cheer her up though. Send her a recording of you reading your favorite Rafael post in your most proper or dramatic voice. I’ll announce the winner here tomorrow. Ok, I got to go before she catches me with the phone and sticks me in a closet.”
