What is going on everybody, it's Dost here and in this video we're going to be doing an overall market update, taking a look at the Dow Jones, the S&P 500 and the NASDAQ. We're also going to be doing a trading update talking about what I did today in the markets as well as some stocks and ETFs that I'm watching and looking to trade right now in October heading into the month of November in 2019 and we're also going to be talking about Tesla stock as it's up another 10% today guys. Up another 10% and we're going to be talking about briefly whether or not I think it's a short squeeze and hint and hint I do think it's a short squeeze but we'll get into that here in a couple of minutes guys and all I ask from you is if you enjoy this video feel free to go down below, hit that like button, consider subscribing if you do want to see further content from me and feel free to join our StriveSmart Discord group chat and our StriveSmart Facebook group. That's how you can be in contact with me and all of the other traders and investors in our community on a day to day basis. So guys let's get right into it starting off here with the SPX, the S&P 500 index, the 500 largest publicly traded US company so we can see here we ended up closing the day up $12.26 up .41% and we finally I feel like broke out today right we finally broke up today and filled the gap up to that all-time high resistance which is at 3027.98 and guys no kidding we got like 55 cents I think it was like 55-58 cents away you know from that all-time high today if I go to this one day one minute you can see exactly how close we got we hit 3027.39 which again is around 58 cents short 59 cents short of that all-time high we sold off a bit at this point there were still hope that we were going to pop back up but we ended up getting back to that resistance guys and it ended up acting as a strong double top right we double top there that's a strong bearish pattern and from there we ended up dumping and kind of trading within this channel over the next couple of hours as you can see here on my one day one minute chart so overall I'm thinking the SPX right now is pretty bullish because again we broke out of this wedge this ascending triangle which is very bullish and we filled up the gap to that all-time high so what I would like to see and I personally think this will happen is you know next week you know I need to see a break above this resistance and for us honestly to get to those all-time highs and watch out for Apple next week guys they do report I think if Apple does well in their report their stock goes up you know that's going to influence the market influence a lot of other stocks and thus pushing us to those all-time highs you know that's what I personally think here and let me know down below in the comments what do you guys think about that going to the Dow Jones industrial average here up 152 points today up 0.57% unlike the S&P guys this is not looking bullish quite yet we're still trading in this wedge right you guys can see it we're still struggling to break out and fill up to the all-time high you know like the S&P already did right which makes the Dow still a bit kind of neutral bearish in my personal opinion you know once if this does happen this arrow that you guys see here if we fill up that's obviously going to be bullish and of course if we break that all-time high at around 27.3 27.4 that would be extremely extremely bullish as well so as of now I'm just simply watching this on the 4-hour chart and if we go to this one day one minute you guys can see we started off very strong today very very strong hit 27k tried to hold that level as a new support but ultimately failed and really we closed above one of the critical supports which is you know or we closed below rather a critical support which is that 27k so you know watch out for that level 27k you know watch for us to break out of there potentially you know that was a resistance from a couple of days ago I think if we pop you know break 27k break this wedge again we'll be filling up to those all-time highs so NASDAQ today guys did exceptionally well up 1.37% here up 108 points and guys this one almost hit the all-time high as well we tested it 8050 if we go to this one day one minute you guys can see we kind of got rejected a bit below 8050 about 14 points below at around 8037 to be exact and that's actually where we are right now in terms of the NASDAQ and from there you know we pulled down a bit now we're starting to see a bullish cross here we're breaking out of that 8036 resistance so this is a good sign right we're about nine points away from the all-time high here on the NQ and I think it's very reachable for this upcoming week that we do end up exploding out of that and going to new highs right whether that's 8060 8070 80100 and above I think that's very possible for this upcoming week so overall guys that's the market right today was quite a good day we had a bunch of big stocks do well you know Amazon tanked after hours yesterday about 10% they recovered all the way up they ate all that gain back up right they gapped up like 7-8% today pretty pretty crazy and that's obviously driving the NQ here we have Netflix doing well today Google did well today Apple did well today three bucks for Apple right in the green you know Facebook's doing well today it did well rather up $1.51 so a lot of these stocks you know ended up fueling the NASDAQ so what did I end up doing today guys well I didn't really do much on day trading other than a quick little in and out on Amazon and I didn't mention yesterday that Amazon was a stock that I was looking to buy you know especially after this dip and I actually did end up buying a little bit in my M1 finance portfolio which I'll update you guys on that portfolio in the next couple of days here because I've actually been doing a lot of buying in there and putting more money you know into the portfolio buying some more growth stocks actually and so I bought Amazon in that but in my trading account you know on the 5 day 5 minute we'll be able to see it here you know I ended up buying in as I start to see you know massive push you know pre-market hours today and really at market open on Amazon right again we got that earnings yesterday you know we ended up tanking tanking from about 1775 all the way down to about 1618 opening up that 10% right I didn't know yesterday I was thinking to myself you know is this going to hold is it going to continue to sell off tomorrow right if it were to sell off I would have liked that a bit more to be honest because I would have added more you know in my other accounts you know besides my M1 account you know I would have added maybe in my in one of my you know long-term accounts outside of M1 but the fact that we ran up so aggressively guys you know I didn't get that opportunity to buy in any other account but M1 and you know in the trading account as well but in terms of my long-term accounts here and you know we got that pop got the consolidation 1660 this morning and then we just had a ridiculous run up on the one day one minute you can see here you know I ended up just buying in on this dip at about 1700 here I believe I just bought like two three shares nothing crazy right and then we started writing that 50 SMA and honestly I just held it for a little bit right the markets were running we saw that and you know as this started to plateau you know that's when I ended up you know scaling out of the profits of the position with profits of around two to about 2.1% and if you guys saw my video yesterday you knew that I was holding some V you know through the earnings which I don't really do a lot but this is one that you know I kind of felt confident doing so so I held half of my position through earnings I ended up buying in yesterday actually at about 174 like 60 or 70 or something like that you know I wrote it up for about 1% profit sold half and now I'm still actually holding the other half through this weekend right I'm holding it through this weekend hoping for a pop above 180 in this upcoming week at some point if these markets do get that pop to the all-time highs I honestly think Visa and a lot of these other stocks like Amazon too honestly will end up doing you know well here so Visa I'm still holding this one I'm up like 2% or something like that 2.5% so yeah that's really what I ended up doing day traded Amazon nothing too crazy about two three shares there you know about 2% profit 1.5 whatever actually that was more like 2% and now I'm holding Visa over the weekend hopefully you're going to make some gains on that this next week so as you guys saw in the title Tesla yes Tesla yet again guys up 10% this is looking like a short squeeze in my opinion it is looking like a short squeeze guys and if you guys do not know what that is let me pull up my safari right here and read a quick definition from Investopedia what is a short squeeze well a short squeeze is a situation in which a heavily shorted stock like Tesla or commodity moves sharply higher forcing short sellers to close out their positions their short positions and adding to the upwards pressure of the stock right short sellers are being squeezed out of their short positions usually at a loss short squeezes are generally triggered by a positive development that suggests the stock may be embarking on a turnaround so Tesla stock right it's been getting crushed you know it was at 170 a couple of months ago you know a lot of the short sellers were laughing through this point in time right and now as Tesla starting to run back up as they turned to profit yesterday now the shorts are like crap what are we going to do right the stock may run up and if it runs up we can lose unlimited amounts of money because when you when you're shorting a stock you can lose an unlimited amount of money that's the reality of it so with the stock you know having this pressure to the upside right what are the short sellers doing they're cashing in at a loss and this is providing you know a lot of stimulus to the stock and as you guys can see here although the turnaround in the stock's fortunes may only prove to be temporary few short sellers can afford to risk runaway losses like I said on their short positions and prefer to close the position even if it means taking a substantial loss so a lot of these short sellers they're taking that loss you know right and that's pushing up the stock like crazy as they're buying into this right you know it's flying up it's squeezing the stock up and that's what we're seeing right here right you guys can see the pop from 250 to 310 now we're seeing even more push to the upside right 296 up to 330 so what do you guys think about this short squeeze or no I personally think again obviously it is a short squeeze and if we're looking at some technicals here on Tesla if we go to this one year one day you know we held 293 yesterday you know we squeezed all the way up now above this next one at about 322 so guys this is a point where we're in levels that we haven't been at in terms of Tesla stock over the past couple of months it's literally almost been about a year since we've been at these 320 to 330 levels back in really February is where we were at these points so keep an eye are we going to hold this old resistance as a new support that's kind of what I'm waiting for here on Tesla the next spot that I can see it running to if we just pull up some you know other levels here you guys can see 344 is very possible 348 350 area you know this could be a potential resistance right if we pull down hold 322 maybe we can trade this up to 350 but you know I don't know if I'm going to be trading Tesla at this point I'm watching it more I'm on the sidelines to see what does it do does it pull down does it does it continue to squeeze up to 350 you know I don't want to get into this now I feel like if you weren't already in this down here in the 240s 250s right now trying to get in is kind of like FOMO fear of missing out it's kind of a bit too late so that's just me right I'm going to wait I'm going to see what ends up happening but nonetheless I do think this is a short squeeze shorts are covering at losses right now to to really you know to to not be caught in a ridiculously red trade because remember when when when when Tesla continues to go up what's happening to short sellers well you know they're losing money and they're losing a lot of money so they're going to keep covering in my opinion and yeah that's just what I think let me know down below what do you guys think about that now let's talk about some stocks very quickly that I'm personally watching and if you guys actually want me to talk about a specific stock or ETF in Sunday's video feel free to comment that down below comment whatever ticker symbol you want and I'll get to that in Sunday's video but some stocks that I'm watching guys you know are a lot of the ones that I'm involved in right now visa I'm watching it right I'm looking for the potential test at 180 I think if we break 180 this could be a runner up to 185 187 so I'm watching visa Chipotle Mexican grill is one that's interesting right now we haven't really found a bottom yet but we're still kind of hovering around the support of this trend line which I think if we do end up turning around here this could be one that fights back up into the 800s maybe 820 maybe 830 and it actually has a lot of potential for profit you know even up to that first resistance which is at 830 it has about a 5.2 percent profit from there right from where we are now to there let's say we pop above to 860 we have even more of around 9 to 10 percent so I'm watching Chipotle closely Apple they're reporting earnings tomorrow or not tomorrow next week you know I believe it's on the 20 or the 20 or the 30th yep the 30th I was about to say 29th but it's on the 30th this is one that I'm watching of course not looking to get in whatsoever it's overbought in my opinion me getting in now would definitely be a case of FOMO but still nonetheless it's still worth watching right if we pull down maybe hold that 50 SMA that could be a dip by entry point here right PayPal is another one that I'm watching this is looking extremely bullish right now in my opinion this one has the most potential out of anyone in this list maybe CMG has you know comparable potential but you know in terms of visa I would definitely rather you know trade PayPal here just because we're breaking out of the 180 SMA here right when we have a lot of potential to those all-time highs at around 122 over around 12 percent right so the fact that we we broke out of the moving averages here we pulled down we held them as a support right and we saw a massive break on the 5 day 5 minute you'll be able to see it right we consolidated we popped this is looking extremely bullish in my eyes and yeah this is actually one that I'm looking to buy this upcoming week as a swing trade so you know another one T AT&T guys this is reporting earnings right now I don't know or they already did report earnings no I swear their earnings were today that's weird earnings conference call 1023 that does not sound right but nonetheless I'm watching AT&T you know they are reporting earnings here whether it's today or the next couple of days either way this stocks been doing quite well right we're at a dip right now heading into these earnings of about 4 percent so this is worth watching as a turnaround play a lot of potential there in my personal opinion and yeah that's really it guys of course I'm watching Amazon as well and all those other tech stocks we mentioned in the

I'd like to bring up someone who will be introducing tonight's speaker, who himself has a rather interesting relationship with tonight's speaker, which he may let you know about. But Dennis Sullivan is an award-winning mathematician from Stony Brook University, and he's come tonight with some students from the university and from the Stony Brook area. We're delighted to welcome everyone here and let me turn it over to Dennis to do a full introduction of tonight's speaker. Thank you. There's some interesting things about Maury Chass I'd like to share with you. First of all, she's not from around here, New York, she's from Buenos Aires, which is like the last interesting city at the end of the earth, and it's a very interesting city. And she did her growing up there and her bachelor's degree, and then she studied graduate mathematics in Barcelona, Spain, which is another wonderful city, got her PhD there, and then now she has traded those two wonderful cities for an even more wonderful city, Stony Brook Long Island, and she's there as a mathematician, associate professor at Stony Brook. Now, at Stony Brook, besides her research, Maury does the math club and also instigated and energizes a summer workshop for students in geometry and topology, and in some sense many of the things you'll hear about in the talk are the kind of things that were motivated and developed in that workshop. We collaborated on a math paper called String Topology, and I wanted to tell a little bit about the story of that, and I have to put this down and I'll go into charade mode, okay? So these are two strings, circles, and they're moving around. As you've heard of string theory, and like particles or circles, and they come and they might collide and then they join and then become one string, like that. Or it feels weird, but anyway. And one string could be moving along by itself and it sort of gets too tangled and interacts with it, crosses itself, and then breaks apart into two strings. These are always circles moving through space, okay? So one used to hear about that when physicists would talk about string theory and they would talk that way and then there is a mathematical discussion called String Topology that makes an algebraic theory out of that. And actually this research that we did started in 98. There was a famous problem all since I've been thinking about math research for like 50 years, 54 years, and there's a famous problem that all through this period called the Poincare conjecture, it's about what's the nature of a space, a three-dimensional space which has the property that every loop in it can be deformed to a point. And that was reduced in the 60s to a problem about curves on surfaces about which this talk you will hear concerns. And the problem was a famous problem and it was equivalent to this problem about curves and surfaces, so we started talking about that. And in 2005 and to 10 this Poincare conjecture was solved and it took, you know, five years to vet the proof and it was finally vetted in like a 500 page proof in a book. And it shows that this problem about curves on surfaces is true, a problem that we worked on because the conjecture is now proven and that problem was equivalent to the conjecture. And this is still an open problem now. So these curves on surfaces, if you go to this talk, if you went to the first talk, you might think this is like just fun and playing around but it's serious business and it's complicated. And one person after the talk will, what are the applications of this? Well, one application would have been had we solved it at the time is get the $50 million, I don't know, one million. No, so nothing. It's one of these clay prizes. So anyway, that would be one application to give a new proof. Anyway, it's still a good problem that mathematicians aren't just happy to prove something. They want to give the right proof and good proofs and understand it. So that's still a good problem. Mora, our math pass diverged at that point. I went into more algebraic aspects of this string topology and she's continued with the harder aspects which are these curves on surfaces which today she's going to present like it's fun in games maybe, but it's very hard. And Mora, I wanted to say, is also a writer. And one play that she wrote, she wrote a play about letters between two sisters, Alicia Bull and her sister Lucy. These are two of the five daughters of George Bull. And I happened to be around so I got to proofread some of this and I'd proofread it like five or six times over a two-week period. I cried every time. I cried every time. And so I invite you to read this play. It's really, you know a lot about Mora Chass if you read it. She's also wrote a nice article about Miriam Mirtacani for the Quantum Magazine, which is nice to read. So as I said, our past diverged from this string topology stuff, but then we decided to get married and they converged in some other sense. Okay, so I give you Mora Chass. Okay, well it was intimidating to have these presentations, but now it's over so we can start talking about math, which is what we all like. So what I like to discuss occurs on surfaces and first I want to discuss surfaces. So what is a surface? I mean what do I mean when I say surface? First I'm looking at surfaces from the topological point of view. There's a joke that you might have heard that says a topologist can distinguish a coffee mug from a donut. And what we mean by that is, well, from a topologist two objects are the same if you can deform one into the other. And here we are thinking this is like a hollow donut and here we have, when you see the mug, it's very, very thin, you know, and here it has a hollow handle and they can be deformed one into the other.   You can stretch and contract and this material is not a material that exists in real life. You know, it's a mathematical material. You know, sometimes we have visualizations but it's the deformation but you can visualize it as a movie. So these are more surfaces. Again, my surfaces that I always present here, they are hollow. You have to think, you know, this is just the outer layer of a solid object. That's a surface and it's, you know, incredibly, incredibly thin. And all these surfaces, you know, they can be deformed one into the other and you see they have two handles. They are made of like two donuts fused together. Here I have more surfaces, now there are three donuts fused together and here is one more that you can think. It does three handles and four handles. Take a picture and think or look at it later in the video. It's a nice problem to think about. And here I have more surfaces that are slightly different from the surfaces. They have a different property than the surface I showed before. Here I have two types that I want you to compare. What's the difference? This is not a rhetorical question. What's the difference? Yeah, yeah. It's not like I'm going over itself so you can see every part of it. Okay, so this one, which one? This one is not going over itself and this one is. There's something there. Yes? Loud. Yeah. The orange-sided hollow and the arc on the top forms the turquoise hollow. So there's two holes, two within the... There's some holes. Oh, okay. There's two tunnels within the... There are tunnels, but yeah, okay. One more. Once decided, one's one-sided. Well, here we see the two-sided. That's a property because there are different colors. But this one is also two-sided. It's just you don't see the side. That doesn't mean it's not there. There's an inside and the outside. We couldn't pay the inside. Maybe there's a little dwarf there running around. There's two sides. Now the difference, and my question was a big debate, the difference I wanted to point out is that there's an inside. You know, they're almost the same from, you know, but I want to show you how we can look at them as the same. So this one, it's a little bit like the one on the left. And now I'm going to attach... This is from a topology. They're not like a disc. And I'm going to glue it here. Edge with edge. Edge with edge. And I imagine that I'm gluing. I'm not gluing because I want to reuse this for my next talk.  So, in fact, these two are almost the same. It's said when this has a hole, somebody took a big bite out of our surface, an enormous bite. You know, this took the bite. We open and we have a hole. You know, remember that I'm starting things up to the formation so size of holes are not important. So these are surfaces with boundary. There's this edge here in each of them. Here I have more surfaces with boundary and here I have a surface that you might have heard of, a Möbius band. A Möbius band is a very interesting surface it has a property that if you start walking from a point here and you keep walking, walking, walking, at some point you're coming back for the back. You start in the top and we keep, you know, without changing, just keep walking from your point of view you are going straight. So that's what we call a non-orientable surface if you have a situation like this. It's a Möbius band. Now I'm not going to discuss non-orientable surface because I have only 50 minutes. You know, not because they're not beautiful and fascinating and interesting but maybe next talk we can talk about them. So now here we are going to look at the surfaces that don't have a Möbius band, orientable surfaces. So orientable surfaces, you know, they can be deformed into a sphere. They can be deformed into a donut. They can be deformed into a donut. They can be deformed into a double donut, a triple donut and so on. That's one list of possibilities. They can also be deformed as a sphere with a hole or as a donut with a hole. You know, since I'm a topologist for me holes can have any size, you know, either form one into the other. Two holes, two handles, one hole, three handles, one hole and so on. And you know, you can imagine how this is going. It keeps going. And here I have a list that continues. Now, it continues, you know, in this direction and in this direction, forever and ever. Now here I have some surfaces and you know, here I have more kind of physical rendition of surfaces here and here and here. Now you can see how many and how wild they can be. You know, if you can picture them all, it's an enormous amount that they can be extremely complicated. But this is a theorem that says that no matter how complicated is your orientable surface, you can deform it into one of these lists. So this is one of these type of ideas that mathematicians want. You know, we create this infinite, incredibly large list of objects. And then you say, well, yeah, they're a little complicated, but in fact, each one of these objects is one of this. I really like it. Every time I look at the theorem, I say, ah, this is a good, beautiful theorem. Okay, now that we have our surfaces, we're going to draw maps on our surfaces. So this is a story that, you know, they said that Möbius posed this problem to his students. He said that there was a king in a faraway land that had four, he said sons, now I changed it to children. And he wanted to divide it, but he wanted the children to remain friends. So he wanted that every pair of children should be able to visit each other without touching the line of the third. So they have to share a piece of boundary so you can walk from one land to the other and not just a little point.  So is it possible to divide a kingdom in such a way? He asked. And you can maybe make some pictures in your head and think if it's possible. We are going to talk about this soon. Now the king made his will, and then he had another child. So we're going to see what happens if he can also divide the kingdom among five children. So this is the problem. I'm going to change instead of a flat country to a sphere, it's more or less the same problem. So can we divide the sphere, this is our kingdom now into two regions, that share an edge? Yeah, of course we can. Here I have an example. Sizes again are not important. The only thing that is important is I need connected regions. So here I have my two regions and they share an edge. They share a lot of all these edges, in fact. What about if I say three regions? Well, we can do it with a previous picture. We just add one more region. We have our two regions, we add a third and we check that every pair of regions do share an edge. Can we do four? And the picture already suggests, you know, when I look at this, what I can add one just there. Now by looking at this picture, can we do five? I mean, if you look at it, there's not an obvious way to add a fifth region and have everybody touches to everybody. For instance, you know, I should go to a place like here, I have three regions touching in this point. If I put a little region here, well, it's not going to touch the red. If I go, you know, if I go a place where there's two regions only, I'm bad, I'm only touching two. So I try to go on the other moves, but there's no way I can add a fourth. So you can say, well, maybe there's a clever way that I cannot see because I'm nervous given a talk, but it's a clever way that I can put five. There is. Let's think about that for a second. So I'm going to translate the problem of these regions to another problem. So to translate the problem, at each region, I'm going to put a point, a little yellow dot. And if the regions share an edge, I'm going to put a segment between these two points. So here it is. And now I'm going to forget the colors of the regions and just keep the two points on the edge. And think, you know, like, now if I give you this picture, the one on the right, you can reconstruct, you know, approximately, in some sense, the one on the left because you just make this thing, each of the points go bigger and bigger and you will have your two regions share an edge. The same thing happens, you know, with three regions, do the same thing, I put three dots, there's an edge, so I put an edge between every pair and here we have the three regions. I do the four now, same thing, same thing. Now if you look at this picture, it's very clear here, there's no way I can add to this particular picture a fifth point because whatever I put a point, if I put it here, I mean the edges cannot intersect each other because if they intersect, the two regions are not sharing an edge properly. So there's no way to add, and if you stop and think, and we don't have time, but you should go to your home and think, basically, if you have four regions, it has to look more or less like this, the picture. You know, there's no other way, because you have four points and each point has a segment to the other points and these segments don't intersect, the picture should look like that, the other fifth. And this is kind of the proof, you cannot put five. So when the fifth children were born, the country collapsed, there's no way of dividing the land in that way. Now what if we change our planet? Now we are not more in a spherical planet, we are in a bagel-shaped planet. So here, you can put seven regions, so every pair of regions share an edge. So I have one here that I'm going to show you in a second, but first I'm going to tell you, I knew the number was seven. So here what I did to construct it is, here I have seven rectangles that I arrange it, you know, in a circular way. Now each rectangle has two edges here on top and two edges here on bottom. Each rectangle, say, we are looking at here the orange, the orange is touching the red and the yellow. Remember, I have seven colors. So I wanted to touch six, each color should touch the other six, so here it's touching two. And I want to glue this in such a way that there's going to be two colors here in the bottom and two colors here in each edge of the top. And the way we do it is I'm going to twist this. So I have, you know, the two sides coming like this. And now, once I have it twisted, I have a corner here and I have a few spots where I can put my corner. So for instance, I put my corner here, like this. But this one would not be good because this corner that I, it's going to be touching the blue and it's already touching the blue. So when again, when I twist, I have to touch other two colors, I'm twisting here, that I didn't touch before. You know, in fact, I have something to see it better, which is like this. You know, the twisting will happen like this.  So I'm going to pass this around. This is not the only way. In this case, we get this very beautiful, I mean, I like it, it's beautiful, not because I made it, because all the regions are the same. They don't have to be the same. This is just other symmetries, a bonus for mathematicians. But you can look at it and see that every, pass it around. And this is a different way of doing it. You know, it's also with rectangles, but they are tiling different ways. So, so this is, you know, every region, every region share a good piece of boundary. And we're going to look at this problem drawing these dots. Again, at every region I put a dot, there are seven dots, and just for you to see, I put lines between one dot and all the others. So here, the two neighbors, you know, they have this segment.  That's my pencil.  And again, if you try to think of this picture, now I have all of them, and finally I have this picture. If I think of this in a column, I start expanding it until, you know, until they cannot anymore, since they're an edge at some point, you know, say this color is expanding and there's another color here expanding, maybe I'll show you here. So by thinking that you expand this dot, you see the translation between this picture and this picture. This is, you know, I have this problem, the regions, and I translated my ability of painting the map in this way to drawing this graph here, where I have all these points and the lines between them. There are different problems, and, you know, they both give me the answer, so in math it's very useful sometimes to think these issues from different point of view. So, well, we can ask the same question for another surfaces, and this idea of thinking this from a different point of view, you know, translate the four regions to this edge with four and the seven regions with this, you know, graph with seven points, this is an important idea. You know, translate your problem to another problem. If you're going to take something out of your talk, this is a good thing, you know, really change your point of view and looking at different. And I have to do a little, I always do a little speech, but it's my, this is dear to my heart. So I was trying to find a picture of idea, and there's a Google idea, and you go to images, and of course you see light bulbs and white males with light bulbs.  But that's not true. If you didn't know it, I'm informing you. So it was hard to find a girl, a woman with an idea. You couldn't find, you know, and I was around pages and pages, I couldn't find, you know, black or brown girls with idea. No. So anybody can have ideas, you know. I mean it takes, you know, math is beautiful and interesting and it gives you what you give her. You know, you need to work hard to do something. And a person who works really hard and spends time gets something, okay. Preach it and then back to math. So here is the number of handles and the maximum number of regions you can have with the property. So if you have no handles like a sphere, you can put at most four regions, exactly four regions. That's the maximum number of regions you can put, so every pair of regions share an edge. If you have a bagel, you can put seven and no more. If you have two handles, you can put eight. If you have 309, 410, 511, 612. So what is seven? I'm tricking you. That's it. It's a trick, you know. This is totally true, but the next one is 12. And there is a formula. You know, we can compute this. By using this idea of the graphs, you can compute it. So what we know is, it's seven plus the square root of one plus 48 times the number of handles divided by two. If you remember the formula when you solve the quadratic equation, this is found by solving the quadratic equation. That's why it looks like that. And of course, this is not always a whole number. So the answer is the integer, the largest integer that is smaller than this number. So that's the answer for this problem. Any question, by the way? Yes, very loud.  It got awkward. How do you figure this thing out? Well, how do I figure, how does one figure this is out? A little bit of the idea is using, I mean, I don't know the whole proof, to be honest, but, you know, think of what we did in the very beginning when we look at the graph and we picture on the sphere the four dots with the edges between them. And you see you cannot add a fifth. So that idea of translating my problem to a problem of dots with edges between them, you know, you can, using that idea only, you can prove that you cannot put more than this. Just playing around. I mean, but is it graphical analysis or are you summing up going on? It's just counting, it's a little bit counting combinator. It's not graphical, it's abstract. You count and, you know, you see you cannot do this. We can talk a little at the end if you want, but it's a little counting and first you have to prove that well, you cannot put more than this and then you have to prove that you can put exactly one like this. So now we're going to see how to encode surface and I'm going to tell you what I mean by encoding. So here I have a surface with topologies called a pair of pans. Now this is a pair of pans of a person who has very, very weird dimensions, you know, the waist is more or less the same as the legs and from the topology point of view is the same as this, this with two holes. And if you don't see it, well, think here I have things that I grab one of these boundaries and I stretch it, you know. All my things are made of this material I cannot stretch it, I stretch it and I make it very big. So it was going to look like this. If I keep stretching and stretching I can make it flat. This is a rare surface. In most surfaces you cannot stretch and make it flat, but this one we can. Two things from the topology point of view are the same. And now to study them, what I'm going to do is cut them and the cuts are segments that go from a boundary component to a boundary component or to a boundary component to itself. And I put different colors and labels because what I want to do is I'm going to cut, open up and open up even more. Again I deform and I make it straight. So after I cut along these edges we get something like this, a polygon that has some color edges and some non-color edges. The non-color edges, which correspond to this here or even this are pieces of boundary and the color edges are pieces that are glued to each other when we look at the surface. And I also put some labels that I'll tell you why. The color for now is enough to reconstruct the surface. So what we're going to do is read off the label. So here I have A A bar, which is capital A B bar or capital B and B. And we make a ring of letters that I call a surface word. So given a surface I have this procedure I start producing this I can do with any surface that has a boundary. I start cutting I open up and I say can I keep cutting and if I can't keep cutting I do it, now the cuts should not intersect each other and I am not allowed to disconnect the surface. So here I cannot make another cut because if I produce another cut I will have two pieces. So you have to stop them. Once you get something flat you stop. It's flat and with no holes you stop. So now we started with a surface and we obtain a surface word. This surface word has knows a lot about the surface. And now we're going to tell the surface word to reveal the secrets of the surface to us. So before let's let me do another example. This is in mouse we call it a torus. It's a bagel with a hole or boundary component. So I produce a cut. So here there is a cut this way and there is a cut another way. I don't have a picture for that but maybe for it's easier to see it.   And again I have the labels or the colors to remember because if I give you the surface word you know how to construct the surface now.  Is that clear? Good.  Those are two these are two surfaces that the theorem tells us that you cannot deform one into the other and they have different surface words, yes. Question for the first one you said it's A, A, C, B Yeah. Does it matter that the order of A, would it be a different surface if it was lower A, capital A lower D, capital of A? That's a very good question right now she was asking is what if I exchange if I put capital A here instead of the little A and small A instead of the big A right now I have to start with one and I have to fix myself it's a choice I can choose whatever way I want but then I have to stick with it once I choose one I have to continue with that right now I only need the colors you know we are going to use a capital lower case in a little bit and any surface you can start with any of these wild surfaces and by gluing pairs of edges sorry by cutting you get a polygon so here there's a beautiful video by Charles Lees who shows you start with an octagon and we're going to glue the pairs of edges that have the same color and what we're going to get this is a surface with no boundary but it works similarly to the surface with boundary and this is a video in YouTube that one should go and see I saw it I don't know 50 times so we're going to get a surface the question is which surface at the very end you know when every pair of edges is glued so now it's like this is like a cylinder with two extra holes this is good it makes me happy so this is a two handle I know because we all face this difficulty when you start to study the things you know if you have this pair of pairs certain surfaces are easy to visualize by cutting out what do I get but complicated things like this you can cut up, get a polygon and then if you go back you get the surface later you go to YouTube and Google Charles Lees he has wonderful videos now let's look at curves on surfaces so I'm going to study closed curves so a closed curve you can think of it as a super thin this is a little too thick for be a closed curve but it's a super thin rubber band that wraps around the surface you know they can cross itself they're not allowed to leave the surfaces don't touch the boundary component and in the same way that we study surfaces up to the formation we're going to study closed curves up to the formation so here I have my curve is the forming all these curves again are the same for the topology point of view they are all in one class because they can all be the form one into the other so all the stages of the red curve now I put this picture here because we have the two different types of the formation now the formation of the curve so here now from now on we're going to fix the surface the surface is not moving anymore it's fixed, we don't deform it and there we're going to draw curves and in that fixed surface we have the form curves so this deformation of surface belong to the past we are over it now this is our world fixed surfaces deforming the curve on the surface okay so now let's use our cutting up of the surface to study the curves up to the formation so we cut out the surface and remember we get the surface world which is AB and now we're going to use the different capitalization so here I have a curve and I picture in both incarnation of my surface here in the real surfaces and here when it's already cut up now for certain purposes this picture is much more clear that's why one of the reasons why we do the cut up because when you see something flat it's sometimes easy to understand I digest so if we look at this surface and I'm going to look at it here sorry if I look at the curve I'm going to read off the edges that my curve crosses so I choose a point to start arbitrary say here and then I'm going here and I said oops I found the edge level by lower case A so I'm going to record A this point you know when I cut the surface is the same as this because this is you know when I cut so this is the same as this so I do A small b go here small b again back here and then I go back where I started so what I did is A A B B now of course that we associate to this class of curves you know to all the curves that can be deformed into this one now you may say well you know I enter here in the A and when I touch here I cut the capital A why don't you record the capital A well the reason is if I enter through the little A I know what comes after you know because the little you know every time you cross the little A you are going to see the big A so you know we are you know very smart people you know if I have the little A I know the big A is going to come so I don't put it there because I know it's there so this is the curve word and sometimes I'm going to write it as a you know not as a ring of letters because imagine you know organizing this letter as a ring of letters you know type writers and not computer are not very friendly for that so here I have another curve more complicated and now this is much nicer to see it here and this is the corresponding curve word again you can you know start seeing here I have small A go here I have to I cannot choose you know if this is the point here in you know like the second to last I have to go here for the second to last to follow the letter to construct the word so this is A A B I was doing here A A B and then I should do A and so on so this is the curve word so now let's review so we have surface words that label surfaces you know to do have a surface word the surface word has to tell you which edge glues with who so they have to you have to have a letter and a letter in a different case because it organizes pairs of edges now when we look at the curves a curve word can be of you know any length and they can have the letters can occur as they want I have no other restriction that you know a letter and a letter case have occurred exactly once for instance we see our curve word here has three A's and then a B and that's fine no uppercase A and so in the same way that we can list all the classes of surfaces well we can also you know label all the classes of curves by this curve word so let me explain this so we have this is an enormous bag that contains all the deformation classes of curves on a fixed surface and I'm going to organize in smaller bags each bag contains curves that are deformable one into each other you know this maximal all the classes of curves so this is a theorem that says each bag of curves can be labeled by one of these words in other words well before we could list all the surfaces you know it was just the number of handles and the number of holes here we cannot list of the curves but you know we can each has a nice label a curve word so in some sense this allows us to works with the curve so this is one thing in my math life that I make extensive use of because you know now I have words well words are something that I can input a computer I can count so you can do you reduce a problem to a combinatorial one and there you can do things so important step for my math life okay so now we're going to study crossings of curves so we have a surface is fixed and you know we have a curve you have a class of curves and to each class we're going to associate a number and the number is the smallest number of crossings a curve in the class can have so for instance if I look at the class of the red curve what is the intersection number what is the smallest number of crossings what do you think okay I need an answer before the question zero why zero because if it can go through a hole it doesn't have to cross itself okay zero because gentlemen said zero because if it can go through the hole it cannot cross itself well you can only move this is the rules of the curve they can only move on the surface the hole is the nothing they cannot go there so here there's no way here I have one cross and here I have two more crossings I can deform my curve I make and disappear this one no matter how you deform your curve you will not be able to make this appear because you're not allowed to pass over the hole the curve is so this has intersection number one of course this is you have to trust me one should be able to prove one could be but when I remove this one no the answer is no so the crossing number of this class of curves is one okay so now we're going to try to count the number of crossings of our curves by looking at the words and so for that I go back to the picture my curve word and the picture in this planar model I'm going to study this crossing here and I'm going to highlight these two segments these two pieces of curves that contain my crossing and then I want to connect you know these segments with the word how are they related so I look at this segment and you know what happens why do I have this segment because at some point my curve enter through this edge right here and then went back to the same edge now enter through this edge means that my word has to have an a because every time you enter through this edge you have to record a little a you come here and you do a little a again so having a segment going to this edge from this edge to this is the same having a word that at some point has a little a and a little a one a next to the other same thing here to here I have a b and a b two b's together and every time I have an a a and a bb I'm going to have this crossing and well this is a special word it has only an a a and a bb but my word can have a million letters but if two a's together and two b's are together they will be a crossing so now we find a combinatorial condition for a curve to have crossings you know if you have a curve that has an a a a b b the class of that curve has crossings the word told us something about the curve and again let's rewind a little and think of all the possible curves and complicated moving through the surface the fact that the word can tell you something it's a little mathematical miracle that I do appreciate so here I have more a more complicated curve and again here I have another example another instance of this a a a a and in this case it's capital B capital B you know the two appear in some spots of the word and this imply a crossing now you can ask well are all the crossings can you count the crossings of a curve by just looking at these pairs of two letter words the answer is almost not exactly but you have to do a little technical thing you know here I'm not going to go into the let me just say maybe I'll say so here I highlighted this I'm going to study this point the red point now these two segments here have an a and then an a again this segment is there because I have an a and then a small b now if I tell you okay you have a word that has an a a and an a b you cannot say there's a crossing or there's no crossing you cannot be sure because well in this case there is but I could have drawn them like this you know if I go from here to here and from here to here or not so what do we do what we go to the past of the curve you know we look at backwards so these two pieces come from this shh like this so if the words tell you you start from these two different edges come to the same and then maybe you can go together for 100 letters who knows and then at the end and you have a crossing or you do this and you don't have a crossing and that's the condition that can be studied it's a little more complicated but it can be studied just by looking at the words in a twist in a little complication of the a a b b thing so this is the theorem the theorem says each crossing point can be assigned with the pair of two subwords of my word a certain pair and you know just there's a list of pairs that are good ones that implies crossings so if I want to study how many crossings my word or curve word has I have to count how many pairs how many special pairs of subwords my subword has so here I highlighted the pairs of subwords of this word they're not pairs, some pairs with special properties analogous to that of the a a b b so here I have the list of pairs they are in color and those are the ones who imply a crossing and again this is this is something that you can put in a computer, I mean my last moment this is a condition that can really be analyzed by a computer so I analyzed program this and I made a table so in this table the rows are going to contain the words of a certain amount of letters so the row one contains the words of one letter the row two contains words of two letters and so on and the columns are going to give me the number of crossings so here for instance in the column one I'm going to have and say here I'm going to have the number of curve words I'm going to have one crossing given by the column and two letters so you know the first table one can do it by hand so for instance there are four words of one letter and no crossings you know just a single letter a b capital a capital b these are the four one letter words they have no crossings and you know you can keep filling the table it gets more complicated to do without a computer this is now the work of the computer and you keep doing this is more and more there are many many many words so here for instance you know as this is 16 letters there are approximately 3 to the 16 words that's an enormous amount of words but you know that's fantastic about computers they don't complain you know they say count the intersections of these three to the 16 words they say okay okay and they do it so here it is and well this table here is the table of course we can't read anything but you start to see patterns you know we are in the eternal search for patterns in math you know when I saw this table already you see one pattern the green and the white is non-zero so you see this nice curve that in fact looks like a parabola and it looks like a parabola because it is a parabola that we proved it so another way another feature is that here it's painted in black it's no curves it's square and these are the rows so this is a row say number 20 and you see that when you have let me start here so this tells me this is white when it's very light means that there's very few curves so there's very few curves that have zero crossings and 20 letters and you get when you have when you look at more and more crossings there are more and more curves here there's a lot of curves more or less in the middle that have the number of crossings here I think I don't know something it's a lot and then they start decreasing the amount less, less, less and less so I wanted to study better this table so I isolated a row A so these are all the words with 8 letters and you know I did a a histogram so this is for instance there are 16 curves with zero crossings there's a rectangle here and then I keep filling this with rectangles whose height is proportional to the number of curves you have here there's nothing very obvious but if you do more you see how it getting closer and closer to a bell curve so in 20 if you look at from far this is just a perfectly beautiful normal curve so I was just playing with Excel and oh do the histogram and then I saw this and I jump on my chair and there was I knew there was a mathematician in the University of Chicago Steve Lally who had working analogous problems so I said look I think this distribution of third intersection of curves sampling by world length I think it's a Gaussian and he answered no I don't think so so I just sent him this picture and he answered let's prove it and we did now it's a theorem so we know that if you look at the distribution how the curves of a certain number of letters how they are organized by self-intersection they are organized in a bell curve form and after this I have a high school and Rachel Zung started the same problem but now started intersections so you have a curve and you want to intersect it with other curves you take all the curves and you want to count how many curves intersect two times your other curve and this turned out to be also also have a normal curve if she did a totally different proof of this and I think I think that's it so now we can do questions and you have to wait for a wonderful microphone so I was wondering when you make the cuts to like flatten your surface does it matter exactly where you make those cuts when it comes to analyzing curves on the surface no I mean straight in the sense that it doesn't intersect no restriction the anthropology is a lot of freedom I was just thinking that I don't normally think in a way of a typologist in terms of what edges intersect and connect and what lines or curves can cross so I was just wondering how does this math apply to like physics in everyday life I love the pure abstract aspect of math I mean for me this is and I know it can be applied and I can tell you some of the things I know is that in DNA I mean this appears everywhere these are tools I'm constructing but I just like the beauty of the tools alright if there are no more questions let's give our speaker one last round of applause thank you so much that was wonderful


Hi friends. Hello friends. It is our second day of our honeymoon retreat. It is not a honeymoon. Oh anniversary retreat. Yes. Yes, thank you. But what better way to start the day than checking out the beach? It's hard to see. Are you blinded by the light? I should have brought my sunglasses. I should have too. You know, I wear sunglasses all the time. I know. So let's check this beach out. This is no dog so it stinks. Yeah, Gracie can't come here. But we are going to take her to a dog beach later on today. So let's go do this. Wow. This is stunning. So far in Florida, I think this is the longest beach to the water, isn't it? Like inland to the water. I've never had to actually cross this much sand just to get to the water. I feel like we're in the desert. Yeah, like this is definitely the longest beach we've been to. And we are not dressed for the water. Yeah, not dressed for the water. But it says red tide. Yes. We made it to the waterfront. Look at this. I'm loving it. We're going to head back inland because this is just the start of the day. I've got to get out of here. There was a dead puffer fish everywhere. There was a dead puffer fish over there. It's really two dead puffer fish and three dead crabs. And that is the sign I'm out. You're out? I think it's because of the red tide. I don't know what red tide is. It sounds dangerous. We've got to get out of here. We're going to have to find out what this red tide is that they speak of. What if it's like, like that means blood if you touch the water. Blood if you touch the water. Oh, we got to get out of here.  Never leaves a man behind. You guys want to take her with you? I won't go back to that. They don't even want you. Yeah, they do. There it is. Florida red tide present. May cause eye, throat, and skin irritation. May cause coughing or sneezing. Avoid the beach if you have asthma or respiratory condition. Unsure winds or rough surf worsened its effect. Red tide is caused by a natural occurring algae.  Do not swim near dead fish or touch them. Wear shoes to prevent injuries from stepping on bones of dead fish. Keep pets away from water. Seafoam and dead fish. I got to get out. Thank you.  Yeah, they bit both of us. Oh, man. I couldn't even take it off. These were in my foot, but I couldn't take them. I couldn't take them off of my fingers. I had to grab my socks. They dug and eat into you. Yeah. But the thing that I'm thinking, What? This beach was way too exotic. Oh yeah, it's not like your vacation destination. I would much prefer like a beach, like the ones we go to usually. I love this beach. Look it. It's a cesspool of scary bees. No. Marriage dispute. Wild Veronica is on the phone with her mom being scared about the red tide. Look at that dolphin mailbox. That is a cute dolphin mailbox, but I'm trying to tell my mom it was almost my last minutes of life. No, the red tide was not going to get you. Yes, it was. Why are you laughing? I think the second she heard red tide, she was like, I'm going to die. Everybody was staring at me and I was falling. Okay, well on our journey from the beach, we kind of followed signs that said moat aquarium this way. We don't know what it is, but we're going to check it out because this whole entire vacation or just like, you know, road trip that we're doing, no plans at all. We planned our spot and then we're going to discover everything else for ourselves. And I'm trying to convince Veronica to stop googling things because I kind of want to just, you know, see what happens. I want to know what's going on with the red tide. Oh, she's still going on about the red tide. Well, if we're going to a aquarium, I'm sure we have plenty of questions to ask. Well, I see the entrance for the aquarium and then they have like a research laboratory entrance here. So that's kind of cool. I don't know if this costs money. I don't know anything about this. Literally, we've seen a sign and we're just like, here we are. But there is a whale fountain. Did you see this whale fountain? Wow. Well, this is kind of nifty. It's like an open, yeah, like an open aquarium. I like it a lot. I haven't seen anything though yet. I see a little fish right here. Oh, yes, some big old fish right there. Oh, a great hammerhead shark. Oh, they have like a little shark underwarning viewing area here. Well, this is really nifty. Oh, yeah, I like this. Look at the shark. I know, it's pretty awesome. That's a fish. Oh, okay. But look at them sleeping down there. That's a shark. Oh my, where are you going? That way.  You've almost been sharked. Stingray. And we're not going to get into this, but look at these baby sharks. Look at these happy babies. I said we're not going to get into this.  Oh, you can adopt one. You can adopt one? Yeah. Oh, adopt a shark. That's really nifty. I have a song for you. What's the song? Feed the fish. Show them you care. Top it. Feed the fish. Top it. They loved it. And they loved your song too. Oh. Look it, look it. Seahorses. It's pretty cool how they have these biomedical laboratories. Oh, yes. I like that. It's interesting. I love animals. I think they have a seahorse viewing area over here actually.  Very cute little small aquarium. And they have a manatee and sea turtle viewing area outside actually. And we're going to go see if we can take a peek over there. Yeah. Yeah. For some reason we couldn't find out where the manatees and the sea turtles were, but now I'm actually getting the directions pretty well. Oh. I was like a little confused. I was like, wow, they should have better signs. Something that tells you where you need to go. Ha. All right. You will only step on manatees and I'll only step on turtles. Okay. And then we cross paths all the way. Okay. I like it. Oh, this is a fun game. Yes, it is. I really do like it. Yeah. The pace faster. Well, we're going to bump into each other. Veronica is literally standing back there yelling she's not going any further because of the bees. And it's literally stopping people because they're like, what's on that pathway? Do you see those people? She's freaking out because of the bees. You think like a snake crossed the road or something, right? You're looking like, what is she doing? See. Oh, now she's running back to the car. We found a fearless leader to take us. Yes. Thank you. Wow. Look at the size of that manatee. Or better yet, the size of that turtle. That is insane. I was trying to find the otters, but someone told me I need to go the otter way. Huh. Get it. See what I did there. The otter way. Look at that little guy.  He's hopping up. Hey, otter. Wow. We didn't film a lot in there because there's really not a lot to film. It's very intimate. Just small portions of aquariums. It's more of a research aquarium and everything like that, but it's very nice here. And I'm going to go get the car to pick up Veronica over on the other side because, you know, she's not one to actually walk the beaten path.  We'll find out. Hey, you want to ride? Yeah. There is bees out here, like the dickens. Bees like the dickens. Yeah, we got to get out of here. All right, hurry up. I'm allergic. Guess where I went while I was going to get the car. Where? None of your business. Hey, look at that mailbox. He's a mailman. We're going to head back into the apartment so we can grab Gracie Goo, take her to the doggie beach. She's probably like so excited. I know. We didn't know how far the doggie beach was from here, but come to find out. It's an hour away. Even more if it weren't girl said. Oh, even more? Yeah. Well, it's worth it. Worth it. It's worth it because Gracie is everything. Gracie is the bee's knees. Wow. She got me on that. Ironically, bees are everywhere. Be be. Be careful. All right, we're here. We made it to the dog beach. We traveled a great distance for you, Gracie. And I think it's going to be worth it. I think so too. Wow. Look at this place. Well, you can't see anything right now, but when we get in there, you'll see. Basically, this is a completely fenced in beach area that lets Gracie roam wherever she likes. And the only part that is open is actually the water line. So, I mean, she can only go out. I mean, she can only go out so far. Okay, you're free. Wait, stop. Now you're free. You're free. The water is that way. Come on, Gracie. Gracie, come on. Let's go, Gracie. There's nowhere for you to go. I don't know why you want to go over there. That's not the water you want. That's the cleaning area. Come on. All right, we'll leave you. Bye, Gracie. Bye. Oh, here she comes. She's crying. Let's go for a dip. Come on, Gracie. Come on, Gracie. Let's go. Coming in the water. Are you going to come join us? There she is. We're down here, standing in the doggie beach. And Gracie is literally all the way up there, trotting around in the sand. Yep, it's nice and cool down here, Gracie. You can do it. She picks up speed, runs to the water line. Oh, oh, progress. Come on, you can do it. Call her. Okay, good girl. Here comes a good girl. Who me? Yes, you and her. Who's a good girl, Gracie? Come here. Come on, baby girl. Gracie. Gracie girl. Yes, I went all the way in company. Gracie's first beach and Gracie's first bar. Who is the doggie bar? Well, the brewery. It is dog-friendly. They have all these different brew beers and doggies and dog bowls. And as soon as we walked in, the bartender came over and gave us a treat. But I am sitting here holding Gracie because she has had a very big day today.  A lot's going on, but she is a champion. What a champion breed we got here. We go to this doggie bar and Gracie just wants to sit on the floor with her daddy. We're with our friend Don. How's it going, guys? On the DL adventures. Yeah. Sean. Sean, you see me in a lot of Sean's videos. Uh-huh. Now look at the big baby. We got the cheeky blonde. Really? That's awesome. The red. We sweet things, though. Quaker goats. Good boy, Bailey. This is named after a dog, actually. The owner's dog. We boost up a bit. It's good. Colchee. Toast chocolate goats. That's Dunkel. Old castle. And I think that this is the one that I wanted to try. What you looking at? Yeah, that's true. Now she's getting comfy. Technically the drone can fly. The owner brought her over so I'm going to see it. Look at this princess right here.  This place is amazing and the beer is fantastic. Brood right here and Dip actually likes it. I really like it a lot. And it's not but light. Look at this. Don't they're so cute? Dom actually works here. Yeah. So he's got the DL.  Look at that. And it's pretty cool. They even have a food truck out back that is serving up hamburgers on Wednesdays. And they have also other things, but they brew all the beer actually in-house. And I want to show you some of the cool things. Wow. Isn't it awesome? And then here's the brewing station actually in the back. It's so wicked cool. Can I just say wicked cool? Well, that's it. That was fun. Yep. Gracie enjoyed the water and she enjoyed the beach. What a great anniversary, huh? Oh yeah. Well, I guess we're done. So love the life you live. Love the life you live. We'll see you next time. Toodaloo. I love you. Bye.


there's my little friend Eli he has a flower on him now we're going to we're going to transplant little Eli out of his little container which he'd probably be all right in but i want him room to have room to prosper and be happy so we're going to put him in this thing there's the difference like i said he already has a little little flower on him so just thought i was with you guys if you're interested welcome to shaver 1000 showing you guys around here for a minute and i keep looking up there again lost somebody that's okay so i thought i transplanted and put him in a little bigger pot to be a little happier giving him some water i haven't given him any um well we haven't given any of our plants uh any plant foods so we did buy that plant food but we haven't used any of it yet um they're just growing some so well her roses are doing very well too so roses are it's just been around here there's her roses they're looking pretty nice i think yeah i think they're they're looking pretty nice here under the umbrella just thought i'd do a quick um um just a quick little livestream for you guys i think that'll be i may have to put some more dirt in that we just have to see i got a video uploading right now uh you guys remember the lawnmower i bought here a little while back it's been a little while i bought a little green weed eater weed eater brand lawnmower so uh done a little bit of work on it today get it ready to sell hopefully you guys will watch the video i'll give it a minute here and then i'll go ahead and transplanting i may walk walk over across the street with you guys if you want to go we'll walk across the street over to the uh tree house if you want hasn't been breezy all day turn turn the camera on back here try to do a live stream and a lot of wind blowing it's beautiful out here it's always nice this time of year springtime neighbors bananas are growing i'll show you the neighbors bananas you want to see the little bananas growing here let

edited one myself and uh it's uploading so they're cute little little bananas on the banana tree so that's pretty cute get back over here that's funny nancy you're you're commenting and it says i have zero viewers yeah i just thought i thought i'd kick you guys off for a few minutes you know hang out a little bit there's a little elie no viewers but i'm getting comments go figure right come on youtube get it together it's funny that when we was having that live stream that one night by the fire yeah i know i love that plan but we was having that live stream by the fire one night you know there's a delay right uh monkey was getting to see she had her her phone on watching from her channel and uh she was getting the comments before i was on my channel doing a live stream i don't know but yeah look nancy he's pretty he's got him uh oops i forgot to spin you around here yeah he's got a nice little white flower on him it's almost a pinkish color almost but if when you get him out the light he is it is a white little little white flowers so i thought i'd just transplant him into a little little bigger pot you know give him room to grow and get his uh you know because i can see his his roots all down in there and stuff so we'll get him out and we'll plant him see now it says i got one viewer announces zero weird stuff but beautiful day out here there's the uh third house i made her a few years ago still doing well it's holding up good the squirrels chewed the hole out really big and they go in there once in a while and um but how it was like the next day we see him i heard chewing on it yeah they chewed it pretty big still hanging in there though had a couple different chairs out monkeys at work got a lot of squirrels here um i'm surprised we haven't seen any out here by now usually they're running all over the place but we got about 15 or 20 um um i counted at one time in the front yard and in the backyard put together there was like 17 uh there was like five out front and there was 12 back here running around up down the trees and stuff they're a little down here man i'm used to seeing squirrels the size of cats these things she's like look at that squirrel he's huge i'm like that's a baby compared to the northern squirrels of course you know she's from canada so she knows like the deer's real small down here and stuff so oh you still got the national guard there yeah we had um we had our stay at home orders kind of dropped now um there's some restaurants opening and stuff um that's you know 25 percent uh they still have to be six feet apart and you know we've we've always we have we wasn't you know we didn't have a national guard or nothing here we wasn't quarantined we was just a stay at home order which we did well she went to work but we did you know you could go out and go to the store and get supplies if you had to and that's all we did so and when we did do that you know we wore our masks and stuff so you're gonna log down for another month yeah pretty much yeah um like there's a lot of um state offices and stuff closed down here um but like the post office is open but like the courts were closed and stuff like that uh but uh yeah we went down and set up and sold some stuff and um the other day uh what day was it friday saturday it was saturday we went down hi nuffin i think i'm gonna set up for a little bit tomorrow she's got one patient to do we still wear our masks if you know we get a customer or something we'll put a mask on to talk to them and us are getting better i i stepped on them earlier they're all kind of must working on them lower yeah see it says i got two viewers now i'm getting two different comments thank you she's uh she's doing all right you know still a little sad but um she's doing she's doing okay like i said she's at work today she had i think she has five patients today um so yeah she's hanging in there her i think her mom's coming this week she's gonna go ahead and move into the spare room until we can get this one built and then um so yeah her mom's ready to get well they still got her in the same room that her dad passed away in so you know that kind of bothers her so she wants to get out of there so we're getting everything set up so she can get some home care coming in and i think monkey's going to be able to to get paid for taking care of her as well so that's going to be nice so and the doctor is going to come right to the house so that's going to be and she'll be more comfortable you know she wants to come outside she come outside and sit and whatnot so yeah so we're going to get that taken care of for but she's hanging in there and uh appreciate appreciate the prayers and she does too she she really appreciates all that so yeah Nancy i didn't mean to uh didn't mean to interrupt your editing you know i just thought because i told monkey last night i was like i think i'll go live for a little bit tomorrow just kind of hang out because i knew it was supposed to be nice today so uh like i said i did i filmed a video i got it edited it's uploading now um so it's on the lawn mower the lawn mower that i bought here a while back just a shorter one it's like 19 minutes but it's interesting why is this it's like flashing i hate the camera on this phone it sucks it sucks really bad man if you if i move my hand in front of it see it's like okay i want to get one of these things i can i can go live for um if i can go live with my actual camera that'll be nice but they're they're pretty expensive so all right i got i figured it out yeah so yeah um so what's all going on here just it's been been very nice we did have a storm the other night it wasn't real bad but we did get the rain we needed we could use more actually so i was going to use my cell phone for that but it quit working well it works but the screen blanked out but the screen was broke but it was working but um you know finally just the screen went blankers like one little square in there so you can't see to to do what you gotta do but it does still still work but you might as well say it don't you know the garden i don't know if you guys seen the garden i'll show you the garden here it's coming along nicely garden here on the big beef hybrid tomato so yeah these these are uh these are looking pretty good after you know raise the as they grow get the string out here they're not tied they're just wrapped around that way i can raise them as i as i need to raise them so yeah they're looking pretty good yeah i don't know if you guys was on when i started when i was talking about that we we bought that plant food but we haven't had to use it i haven't used any of that we never even opened it yet so we haven't had to um monkey's roses are looking good i'll show you her roses um i believe she did a video on these so they're looking pretty good these ones aren't these ones was already on when we bought the plants these are new these ones here are new blooms this is a new one here and these three here are new so i'll have to get a trellis for her for the roses i don't know what these are they're not roses but they're pretty so i'll have to get her trellis for the roses to um vine up this is from the antenna there goes into the bedroom we don't use it much sometimes she'll turn it on but thank you um i'm going to be i'm probably going to take this thing down so we don't usually watch tv um we're probably just going to go ahead and have a cable turned on since her mom's moving in that way her mom can watch her her shows and whatnot and so let's go ahead and see this oh we've got three watching now all right got a big shovel in there let's try to get him out of here hope i don't hurt him um but these this soil this potting soil has um got to get these roots down in there it has fertilizer in it though there's a little white dot you guys know that but i've put some more soil in probably yeah i'll fill it i'll count i'll fill the thing up there just give him give me some more root room for his roots and stuff yeah i'll have to put some more some more soil in there he'll get pretty good size oh kenny happy so yeah that's what i'll do i'll just kind of i got a little bit of water here i'll give him some water because that soil just came out of the bag so that'll be good for now then i will um like i said i'll add some more soil on top of that so yeah he's he he's he's doing pretty good there you go buddy yeah good go all right not quite centered but it'd be okay i might move him around a little bit once i put more soil in soils out front i forgot to bring the bag around i filled this up and brought in around and i forgot the bag so but yeah there he is Eli little Eli he's so cool might be something special you can do for a monkey and her mom like a place to visit if that makes sense yeah i know what you mean yeah yeah we do that too and uh funny you should mention that because i was thinking about that too give him a place to go set and and you know yeah yeah because i thought about that clearing off a little spot back here or something yeah great idea yeah that's a great idea as a flower it's a girl guys like flowers i bought him so that's what's going on today it's beautiful weather here today hot yes it is really hot yesterday it's like 87 or something like that oh yeah yeah nice bench yep it's a great idea yeah it's funny you should mention that because i was just thinking about that like day before yesterday over the weekend i was like yeah maybe i'll do something like that gonna be 80 there Thursday i'm not sure what it is here right now um let's see here 82 i can't feel it's hotter but 82 right now so yeah so we got him transplanted now i can reuse this for something else start a seedling or something yeah cool guys see that video i did the birds came walking i was sitting in this chair right over here with my back that way to this tree i was facing that way and then birds came right around here i could have touched him uh Kenny's gonna go fishing good luck that sounds like fun uh Pete says it's 61 where he's at yesterday was 75 yeah it's coming our way isn't it coming our way of course it's usually pretty nice down here but we do get some 30 degree nights and some days down in Florida where i'm at but we're pretty close to the gulf coast so like right now i can smell the salt air from the gulf coast so that's pretty cool because of the breeze you know is coming in this way yeah i want to do a gross food challenge i don't know if she's gonna do it or not 85 here out as hell still haven't put AC in the window it's too dang heavy for me to lift yeah this one stays in because we pretty much use it all year even even then december january february you know it might get down 30 degrees at night and stay that way until 10 11 o'clock and then about 10 11 o'clock temperature starts raising and by midday you know it can be 70 80 degrees here and so you know we'll have to kick the air on so yeah we pretty much use the air down here all year it's probably the same in texas isn't it but um yeah so i don't even bother taking it out it just there's because there's only really maybe a week that we don't use it like i said in between times you know it um it'll just uh you know we'd have to put it in and take it out so i just leave it in of our new one big uh yeah i think you was telling me about that pretty much too long ago yeah a big ac i can't remember what that one is it's not very big but that house is not very big so it kind of cools the whole damn house down it kind of cools the whole damn house down um except maybe that back room but hopefully i mean it still stays cool but hopefully before it gets too sweltering hot we can have her mom's room built which she's going to have her own air conditioner her own heater and all that she just kicked off now and i got it that sat on like 68 in there so it must be below 68 because it just shut off wouldn't it push yeah yeah i've done that a few times man hell yeah it was like man this thing is no good it's not working anymore that's why i got a new one like you raise the window up drop it out or heavy to be fiddle fooling around with you know that little one it's a little but man it's heavy i mean it's it's not a little little it's probably maybe mid-sized i can't remember what the btu is i did that cleaning video i think i mentioned it in the cleaning i mean it's still going she's had that thing almost five years yeah and like i said it's used almost out of 365 days it's probably used 350 of them yeah a year or so give or take you know depending on the where we're having what not but yeah about 350 days you have things running so i gotta you know i gotta clean the filter quite often but it's cool because it lets me know it gives me that red light when a filter needs changing and it's pretty close because uh well you don't have to change that when you just rinse it off so when it's when it's ready it's it's about do yeah uh yeah okay i get what you're saying yeah remember when that guy ate that dude's face wow i'm on bath salt i think it happened close to your town oh really no kidding see yeah there's a lot of shit goes on down here florida i mean it's just it's like all the crazies want to move to florida you know i mean i'm here right no he's serious yeah and guys when them bath salts was uh a big thing was a hot thing and uh yeah he got messed up on them and uh yeah need you to guy up man yeah no joke nice and breezy hope you guys can hear me all right good nice little breeze going and droves uh that's uh yeah but i guess you'll have that anywhere just some places more than others right i guess we could take a walk across the street look at the treehouse if you guys want to before i shut this down yeah you can tell people's out and about because this road's been busy all day well yeah monkey's got a she's got one patient to do tomorrow so this shit yeah i'll tell you that there's some places in Ohio that are pretty bad i was fortunate enough i didn't didn't have to live in any of them but they were they were pretty bad man 833 more watch hours yeah getting there i think i think this month so far this period i've got uh i think i got 3,700 i think 3,800 watch time hours so it did go up some yeah yeah p had to go to Cleveland once for training yeah you know what i i've been to Cleveland a couple times and i didn't even really get in a bad section i didn't like it no i was like they can have that place because i didn't really you know it was like because you know i'm i'm used to being living in small towns you know that's why i like this town so so much uh because it's not a real big city it's considered a city but um it's small enough to where it's not super bad although here lately i don't know i've been seeing some car chases past the house and they're all going freaking nuts man the whole system's breaking down we just need to get we just need to get that video you know i don't see that happening for me but as long as i keep doing about what i'm doing now i'm good with that you know sometimes sometimes like like this you know i was going to make a video this then i thought well shit i'll just do a live stream if somebody shows up great if not that's fine too you know because i know it's middle of the day and pretty much middle of the week almost and i just figured what the hell i just kind of kick it in chitchat with myself until somebody shows up or whatnot so i think i put i put two up yesterday or day before i put two up i put one up yesterday no i put two up yesterday yeah yeah the hot sauce thing let me tell you hot sauce is hot i don't care if you freeze it or not it's just as hot it doesn't it doesn't help i think actually i think it made it a little worse so my opinion it did because i've had that hot sauce that i used in the video i've had it before and it's hot but man it just seemed like it got it got worse once it was frozen so yep it doesn't make any difference it's still hot it's a screen like blinkin man let's take a little walk and she goes on for an hour yeah panel chat let's help in this booth oh yeah live streams help they do help a lot trying to get monkey into doing some more live streaming but uh she's so busy right now so but once everything calms down a little bit i'm sure she'll she'll get to doing more she loves it you know it's just gonna get you turned around here we're going over in here what's going on down there hey see you on a flip-flop enough and take care man go chat out you soon huh bye this is the treehouse it's not technically a treehouse because it's not really built onto a tree it weighs up it's about 10 feet to the bottom the board's starting to come loose there i'd still love to buy this little tiny piece of property here see where the animals come up in here oh somebody came and got their chair they had a chair in here now it wasn't a hunting blind i don't know what it is as far as snakes uh i've only seen uh one rattlesnake it was in the backyard but i haven't seen it since that was a couple years ago and then we've seen one of those um was it a python type snake i've seen one of them but mostly what i have seen i've seen a lot of you know rat snakes and uh brunu has killed three snakes and they were just black snakes but you know i told him don't kill them because they keep the the mice away you know so um yeah i'm not sure what it was oh yeah the blue racers i don't know if we got them down here or not but um yeah i'm not sure what that used to be man it was uh but it's really cool it goes over here where it's cleared off right in there somewhere and then right here it's the fence line right here and then it goes just right over to there and then out to the street i think it's 0.33 acres so somewhere right in there a little a little over a quarter of an acre but i know it sold a few years ago when i looked this spot up it did sell for a thousand dollars i can't remember what year that was but i think it was before monkey bought her house right there because this was here before then because i i moved in with her not too long after she bought her house and um i just happened to notice this one day over here and uh so i came over to check it out i did film it and uploaded a video on it with jerry's old house there there was a bunch of like stickers in the windows about how it wasn't abandoned and it wasn't for sale so i'm not sure what's going on with it they're still sticking on the door there's a sign in the window and they have had it mowed someone is paying to have the grass moved now i don't know if the bank's doing that i'm not sure what's going on with it but yeah service like that sign's been there it's being serviced by a certain company so i don't know i don't know what's going on with it that's another place i'd like to have uh put it on air b&b you know let it pay for itself you know it's getting hotter you know what these aren't doing very well at all she needs to put some more dirt around there i think i think it's not they're not in deep enough it's some bunch of rock shell rock and sand here of course this is all sand but this one's doing a little better but i think it needs more dirt i may put some more dirt around it for her later these plants here are doing pretty good hanging in there that's a new one she put in these these are all new here i'm not sure what's up with this frog she brought it from her mom it's got some kind of hose on it so i don't know it was by their pool so i don't know i think it might have used to maybe turn it on have like a fountain you know by the pool so yeah these things are these things are doing pretty good here so i got the trellis here but as you can see they're wanting to come out this way so you can see the bugs and stuff we're getting to the leaves on that one that one down there but yeah so i don't know if i walked across the street and uploaded a video with my hotspot so i don't know if that interrupted it oh no it's almost done cool doesn't take long my hotspot's very fast i'm through verizon well it's cricket but verizon's the uh you know what i'm saying right but um yeah so of course here's the back the back door looking out back that's where we were sending them i'm going to go right
