0:00.0	When Glenn was in grade seven, he got in trouble at school. So we had to write an apology letter
0:05.3	to the vice principal. Dear Mr. Rankin, I'm so sorry about what happened at recess today.
0:12.9	It was an accident. I'm sorry Sean got hurt and that he had to go to the dentist. I know we
