Transcription Notes:
Line 4: change "Cruisen" to "Cruisir"? Line 7: change "found" to "bound" Line 9: change "fine" to "fire" Line 14: change "Wold" to "Wolf" Last Line: change "look" to "took" Opps, did all that before I saw note. Thot we were to correct as we review? Intended commas seem to be written as periods.
