>"THE CONTENT!" And here is a perfect example of the content...
>"laugh is so strong in the expression!" it works just as it should!
>Captures and holds the viewers eyes right on the mark, not allowing

>I'd never mention the pole again simply because it isn't there
>unless you tell people to look for it! Even then it's hardly
>noticeable!
