## What Jamie wrote

Incredibly moving speech that I hadn't heard the speech from [David Foster Wallace](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Foster_Wallace) before. Now I want to read his books. Take the time and listen to this. This [other version](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eC7xzavzEKY) with images is great as well.
