Watch this really touching video and then follow the
script below. You will find jumbled words in bold

“Here’s to the crazy ones.
The misfits, the breesl, the troublemakers.
The round pegs in the square holes, the ones
who ese things differently. They’re not fond of
rules and they have no eptserc for the status quo.
You can quote them, asgrdeie with them, glorify
or vilify them.
But the only thing you can’t do is ergino them.
Because they change things, they push the
mhanu race forward.
And while some may see them as the crazy ones,
we see neigsu, because the people who are crazy
enough to think they can ecahgn the world,
are the ones who do.”
