       (By the way, slide.com windows play on continuously and i've posted videos one after the other on the same page since apparently i've let my right side of the brain or center or whatever part it is, take over this blog, and there are no legal opinions hahaha if you want to play the other videos on the same page, you can turn down the volume of slide.com by clicking the icon on the left hand corner that's shaped like a bullhorn or megaphone until the symbol  that looks like this  )))  disappears. Thanks.)
