:41:13
Damn!
:41:15
He killed a whole six-pack!
:41:17
He slept right by her grave.
:41:21
Damn!
:41:45
Because of Skip,
I was able to cross...

:41:47
... the threshold
from childhood to boyhood...

:41:50
...from being on the outside...
:41:52
... to finding myself smack-dab
in the middle.

:41:55
He helped open my eyes
to the wonders of life.

:41:58
And I got to know the delta
like the palm of my hand.

:42:02
Every bend in the road,
every slope, every field.

:42:06
It became as familiar to me
as grass or sunlight.

:42:15
But Skip opened my eyes
to other things too.

:42:19
-Sorry we're late.
-That's okay. I was late too.

:42:24
He likes you.
:42:26
I like him too. A lot.
:42:31
Huck Finn.
:42:32
It's about a boy who has adventures.
:42:36
This is Caddie Woodlawn.
It's about a girl who has adventures.

:42:42
Not too many boys like reading.
:42:45
I do.
:42:47
I'm thinking of becoming a writer.
:42:49
Either that or a U.S. senator.
One of those.

:42:52
I'll probably be a writer too.
:42:54
Or a pilot.
:42:57
Or maybe even a senator's wife.
Something like that.
