There are gajillions ofstories...
:01:13
ofmischiefand fun,
:01:15
but to keep things simple,
:01:17
let's start withjust one...
:01:19
about a mom and two kids...
:01:22
and a house and a hat...
:01:24
that, oddly enough,
:01:26
was worn by a cat.
:01:28
But soon enough
we will get to all that.
:01:32
In the valley that stretches
from this hill to that hill,
:01:36
a city is nestled...

:01:49
for buyers and sellers
to sell and buy stuff,

:01:54
and elongated ladders...

to sailboats and gibble-grated
berry-juice bladders.
