    Hey guys… sexy titles get the views on YouTube.. help me come up with a sexy title for this video.. I can’t think of one! :?:

  • http://www.kunstscheiss.de aLx

    I like the dark hair.

  • tayljim

    how about “Bend Over”?

  • prospero811

    How about:

    Get rogered!

    Or,

    Marina gets rogered!

    :lol:

  • prospero811

    Wilco means “o.k. will do” – or “will comply.” Charlie means the enemy.

  • prospero811

    over means “done talking”

  • freelander

    Hot for…Roger

  • meanmarine

    How about — “Marina chooses Roger over Charlie”, and invites you to watch!

  • prospero811

    How about:

    Get rogered!

    Or,

    Marina gets rogered! :lol:

    (since “roger” is a euphemism for having sex, therein lies your sexy title)

  • prospero811

    Or, “Roger rogers Marina.”

  • capman911

    Hi Marina,
    The word over would mean when a radio conversation was through so the other person on the radio could talk. Wilco means will comply or obey. The word charlie is a reprensentatation of the letter C or during VietNam it meant the enemy Charlie or Viet Cong.

  • alidor

  • http://www.kunstscheiss.de aLx

    no, it doesn’t.

    and what the hell does rogersex mean?

  • absorber

    Wilco is short for “will comply.” Which i guess is prudently better than saying “wilcom”

  • hot4wordsloverboy

    Hi Marina,
    Always love your videos. I have a word request. My mother always uses the phrase “Get on the Stick” when she wants us to get busy. What is the origin of this word? My only guess was that to get on the stick meant to have sex (get busy).

  • pagedoll

    Who knows man! but it might get alot of hits cause it has “sex” in the title. Just tryin’ to get the window shopers ta come on in.

    Get your mind out of the gutter. Its origin had something to do with gearshifts or, perhaps, the joystick of an airplane. Grab the stick, get control, be in charge, don’t just wait for the crash. It was one of those.

    Ooooooops a cat i mean to do one quick

  • tiger-the-vicious

    I am going down Roger !
    Eh ? I thought this term meant I am going to make you day :wink:

    Whoops I am off there’s a cat on patrol …Sorry geronimo…

  • http://picasaweb.google.com/looking.in.a.broken.mirror ritalate

    if you say roger you don’t need to say wilco and if you say “out” you don’t need to say over. So… no “roger wilco” and no “over and out” okay? okay… Sorry it’s just a pet peeve. Which might make an interesting video. Where do we get “pet peeve” from?

    roger = i received/understood your last transmission
    wilco= i will comply with last order received
    and charlie is “C”

  • freelander

    I forgot to say…. NICE VIDEO :wink:

    And I still prefer..
    HOT for roger :mrgreen:

  • orion_ss1

    Most got “over” and “Wilco”, correct. As part of the phonetic alphabet, :smile: “Charlie” implies a correct readback; and has morphed into an affirmative. “Over and out” is superflous. “Over” means its your turn to talk; “out” means I’m ending the conversation. “Wilco” meaning “I will comply” implies you have the authority to follow the order ( ie, a ship’s radioman can hear the order but cannot say “Wilco”; that’s the Captain’s job. “Charlie” USED to be short for “Victor Charlie” or Viet Cong during the Vietnamese war, but in context today I would think that would not be what was meant.

  • http://picasaweb.google.com/looking.in.a.broken.mirror ritalate

    i messed up answering the last question but really where does pet peeve come from? :)

  • pagedoll

    That was good prospero811.LOL! Is that called a link? I wish I knew how to do things things like that. But my friend Rich Jones always said “You can wish in one hand and sh*t in the other and see what you get”

    What kind of snake was it ??? Oh, I’ve seen many snakes in my country’s jungle. All they are poisonous snakes, but that one you were boosting in shoulders, well I supouse was not a poisonous. I bet it’s a anaconda or a piton…..interesting. And I have a word request, Colt Piton is a gun we here call in my country as Magnum, why is it named like a snake ???

  • dbqbuddha

    and never “OUT” an officer! :twisted:

    That will get you in Big trouble, Dbqbuddha

  • prospero811

    Technically, it’s possible to understand the message receive, but have no intention on complying. Therefore, “roger” can mean I understand, but I will ignore you. Roger wilco means I understand and I will obey.

  • dbqbuddha

    oops. My bad on the typing. How was Greta though?

    Another fantastic video Marina. :mrgreen: I laught at the part “You forgot to say over.” :lol: :lol: I’ve heard of the same thing in Ham radio. Since shortwave radio has a lot of static, it’s difficult to tell if someone has stopped talking. Thats why we say ‘Over’ when we are finished talking and want the other station to go ahead and talk.
    I have only one comment on the photo “Lucky Snake!” :mrgreen:

    Looks like Hollywood has influenced Marina’s language again. There is no such thing as ‘Over and Out’. It’s a myth.
    See my old post on Golf Answer:
    http://www.hotforwords.com/2008/04/27/golf-answer/

    [['Over' means you have finished your transmission and are waiting for the other station to transmit but saying 'Out' means I am turning off my radio or its like hanging up the phone in the middle of someone talking. Hence Over and out means the communication is back to you but I'm not going to listen to what you have to say because I have turned off my radio. :cool:]]

    Awe Im just reading Ritalate’s comment, you can say Roger Wilco.
    ‘Roger Wilco’ was the reply to ‘Roger’ from the original transmitter of the radio message, meaning ‘I have received your message that you have received my message.” Wilco implies “I will comply”
    Or one could say ‘Roger Negative’. Meaning I understand your transmission but can not comply with order.

    Reading nbeltran comment. Why do we have a phonetic alphabet? What would it’s purpose be? Are there other phonetic alphabets that other associations use?(hint:officer) Anyone?

  • orion_ss1

    The phonetic alphabet is needed because of the high static nature of radio. It is much more clear today but there is still static and garbled transmissions waste time. They are also necessary for several encryption applications. USN RET

They can bite if they are having a bad hair day. :mrgreen:

    Well, I’ve been trying to come up with some good sexual inyourendo that goes along with the words in this video. After all, a day without wordplay is a day without punshine. But I’m not coming up with anything better that connects “roger” to something sexy or sexual.

  • geronimo

    OK here’s your title. “Charlie rogers wilco over Marina!, Gay? You bet!”

  • prospero811

    It comes from the French reference to Angelina Jolie wearing make-up as “joli rouge” – the British popularized the phrase as Jolly Roger, because they didn’t eat enough limes and hence were driven insane with rickets.

  • 2hotforwordsfanclub

    wordplay is a day without punshine :razz: :lol:

  • prospero811

    Really? You mean proper etiquette would be if I said, “rtalate, please change your heading to due south…” you would simply respond, “wilco, over” or “wilco, out?”

    So, what is the purpose of the word “roger” at all, since any response other than one indicating that no message was heard/understood would automatically imply that the message was received an understood? Not sure it makes much sense, but then again, I’ve never engaged in such a transmission…..

  • geronimo

    I’m new at reading Russian, but wouldn’t his name be pronounced Kalashnikova?

  • prospero811

    No, that would be Phil McKracken. He’s the cousin of Hugh G. Rexion and Dick Hertz. Is Phil McCafferty any relation to Dick Zucker and Mike Hunt? I saw Ann Rexiya out with Barb Dwyer the other day. They were on a double date with Harry Balzac and Haywood Jablome. It seems they were upset because Jack Hoff came too with Russian bride Ivana Kutchurkockov.

    Python regius, common name is Ball Python or Royal Python.

    My reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ball_python

    The name ball python refers to the animal’s tendency to curl into a ball when stressed or frightened. The name royal python (from the Latin “regius”) is based in part on the story that Cleopatra supposedly wore the snake around her wrist.

    They make great pets because of their small relative size when the become adults. Last time when I worked for PetSmart they where selling for about $200 add another $500 – $800 for animal husbandry gear.

    “Colt Python” is the gun your referring to. I no nothing about it. I only use Gun-Fu (no its not a spelling mistake) & Shaolin Kempo for defense. I was trained from Grand Master Archibeque (Gun-fu) & Mike Skinner and family (Shaolin Kempo). Much more effective than a gun and you can take it though airport security without causing a ruckus. :smile:

    thnx ;) u r so beautiful by the way :) :)

  • svoboda

    If my early days in the army serves me right, over means “over to you” as in handing over the airwaves to your transmission. Wilco is short for “Will Comply” or that I understand what you’ve said and will comply.
    Charlie is for the letter “C” in the phonetic alphabet. Charlie can also mean the enemy, as in the North Vietnameze during the Vietnam war.
    The entire phonetic alphabet is this:

    A- Alpha
    B- Bravo
    C- Charlie
    D- Delta
    E- Echo
    F- Foxtrot
    G- Golf
    H- Hotel
    I- Indigo
    J- Juliett
    K- Kilo
    L- Lima
    M- Mike
    N- November
    O- Oscar
    P- Papa
    Q- Quebec
    R- Romeo (they say Romeo when spelling phoneticly, and Roger when closing a transmission so that there is less confussion over what you are trying to say to the other operator)
    S- Sierra
    T- Tango
    U- Uniform
    V- Victor
    W- Whiskey
    X- X-Ray
    Y- Yankee
    Z- Zulu

    Now, here is a question for you, dear teacher, or anyone else willing to try: What is meant when you say over the radio “repeat”? And why do you want to be very carelful when saying it?

  • Bob

    “… change your heading to due south…” you would simply respond, “wilco, over” or “wilco, out?”

    First, you would say, for example, “Speedbird 001, make your heading 180.” and the correct response would be to read back the instruction, “Heading 180, Wilco, Speedbird 001.”
    Second, you NEVER say “Roger” to a transmission that requires an “Affirmative” or “Negative” as a reply.
    Third, “Wilco” means, “I have received your message AND will comply”, so you don’t say “Roger, Wilco.” because that would be repeating yourself.

    Source, CAP413, Civil Aviation Authority Radiotelephony Manual.

  • prospero811

    Huh – interesting – learn something new every day! :grin:

  • webflyer

    Back in the days when you had to physically switch a radio transmiter/recever from transmit to receive. Once you finished your transmition you said “over” to let the person on the other end know that you have finished your transmition and will now switch your set to receive so that person can now transmit. When the session was over you said “over and out” to let them know that you were no longer ready to receive any transmitions.

    The corny’ist statement heard on any radio is “roger wilco” heard in every B-movie involving aviation since 1930. This statement is actually used today. It means …(roger)…I have received (or I understand) and ……(wilco)…I will comply with your instructions.

    Finally, the term “charlie” is the phonetic alphabet designation for the letter “C” and means ….confirmed. ie. Query: “I understand you will be landing at DFW.” Response: “Charlie” (that is confirmed).

    I love this aviation stuff (and you Marina). Good on you and keep up the great work.

    From my buddies at CERN:
    An electron walks into a bar, slumps down on the stool and starts moaning about how bad a day he has had. The bartender says, “Cheer up buddy. Stop being so negative.”

    And others:
    Why did the chicken cross the road?

    C and M, both Z warriors, decided to take a trip in N. They left their homeland and went to L to see the lamas and play a little G in the thin air (the ball goes further). After a quick round of G they left their H and flew on D airlines across the S mountains all the way to Q to see C’s P and practice their French. V, C’s P was the A warrior in the tribe and looked resplendant in his Z U. V bought them all W and a K of chocolate at the H bar. There they met O who was hitting on J, putting on all his best R moves. O asked J to dance. J wanted to T but O was a Y from New York and liked the F. C yelled B and there was a resounding E from crowd. Next thing you know M drank too much W and fell off the stool in the middle of the H bar and broke his arm. V took M to the doctor for an X. C told M, that next year they were going to I.

    We used Roger and Negative. I cringe almost every time I hear any military movie communications say “Over and Out”. OVER means I have finished my transmissions and turn the channel over to you to transmit. OUT means I have completed transmission and am completely finished and closing this station or switching to another channel. So you can see why I cringe with “Roger Wilco Over and Out”

    I agree with Bob in the use of Roger Wilco in the same transmission. Yet I still say it on the radio. Some say its a bit redundant and others say its to completely different meanings. I just try to blend in with the crowd. Im still bothered with phrase like “She’s Hot” and “That’s cool”.

    With that note, Peace out.
    Navy Pilots say the use of Roger Wilco is frowned on, use one or the other as applicable.

    In addition to “R” Roger, early CW use for “correct” was Morse “C”, this carried over to the phone circuits as “Charlie”. This is still used by Morse ops and can still be heard on some military voice circuits as in “That’s Charlie” or “That’s a Charlie readback”. Usually following a readback of a message and meaning ‘that is correct’. One will also see the occasional reference to FOXTROT messages as in the “DO NOT ANSWER” also encountered on military circuits. This is also from the CW “F” meaning ‘do not answer’.

    Marina:

    Hello my beautiful teacher. I just wanted to tell you that the phonetic alphabet you used in the video are for Police Officers. The Military, and therefore pilots, use: Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, Delta, Echo,…etc. There is a difference.

    Wilco= Will co-operate. Meaning, will do.
    Over= Means, message transmission over, awaiting reply. Which is why in the movies when they say….”Over and out” is not correct. This would mean I am awaiting your reply and my transmission are completed. Does not work.
    Charlie= I have no idea what answer you are looking for. (At least I am honest)

    “Are those new shoes?”

    He looks around but nobody’s there. He takes another sip:

    “I have to say, your hair is looking lovely tonight!”

    Marina, you NEVER say “over and out” since “over” means “I am turning the conversation OVER to you, it is now your turn to talk” and “OUT” means “I AM SIGNING OUT OF THIS TRANSMISSION”, or “END TRANSMISSION”. WILCO is short for “WILL COMPLY” and “CHARLIE” was the third letter of the phonetic alphabet under the old system; “ABLE, BAKER, CHARLIE…” The military phonetic alphabet is currently “ALPHA, BRAVO, CHARLIE…”

    “WILCO” is for when a message is received, you say WILCO to let the person know u will comply with this message.
    “CHARLIE” I think is a name used for a batalion, or a group, example, alpha, bravo, CHARLIE ( you used the older terms able and baker)

    In Siberia I always bought flowers for the hamstresses I admired but since I was captured and exported to pet shops in England I have never seen it here. Europe celebrate it I think.

    Not sure what country it started in but, Mayday was well established in the UK by the 16th century so your ancestors who invaded Apache country took it from the UK when they did so

    for convenience (yours and mine) i’ve reposted here as well as youtube. (got the last word in there though.. woohooo!)

    anyway it has been answered i see already but again:
    :arrow:
    over = your turn
    wilco = yeah, i will do that
    charlie = something beginning with ‘C’ …

    So, for a word request of sorts..

    what about ART and WAR and the ‘art of war’ and the ‘war of art’?!

    the two are separate of course, but inseparable!

    but what is ART?!!

    ahem..

    the use of ISM and IST at the end of words.. why so many are viewed as negative or destructive (no need to name them), yet the obvious one, ‘artist’, is the most creative (possibly)?

    yes i have an ‘ist’ at the end of my name!

    catch my gist?! (i like that word!)

    what does it all mean :?: :!:

  • michael duckett

    Uhh…. Ya don’t say “Over and Out” One or the other, but not both.
    Over = “I’m done talking, your turn”
    Out = “I’m done, off the air, conversation over”
    Wilco = “Will comply, I’ll do it, Yes dear” To a request or an order
    Roger = “I understand the information provided” (NOT the same as wilco)
    Copy that? = “Did you understand?”

    Please say: “Moose and Squirrel” for me? Please???

  • http://Actionops.com/ti 0WildBill0

    Marina:

    Yes, you are correct and I was thinking wrongly. Wilco is Will Comply. Caktonious beat me to the answer to Roger and Charlie for military. The Police use some strange variations, at least, our local ones do. Some use Adam for “A” and some even use “Apple”.

    As to which one came first, I don’t know. The need for this type of clarity came about as you said with the advent of radio so I am not sure. If I had to guess, I would say the military made use of radio on a large scale first so possibly that is the answer. Maybe, our beautiful teacher needs to investigate.

    Marina, Funny that you bring up the movie “Airplane” scene. I have wanted to create the same confusion with our vessel traffic system (VTS). VTS here in Puget Sound is called ‘Seattle Traffic’. I want to rename my yacht ‘Traffic’ in larger letters and ‘Seattle, Wa’ as my hailing port. Then when I call my vessels name on the radio it would sound like this when I call VTS.

    me: Seattle Traffic, Sailing Vessel Traffic, Requesting Traffic report.
    them: Sailing Vessel this is Seattle Traffic could you please repeat your vessels name and hailing port again?
    me: Roger Traffic, Traffic Seattle, Washington.
    them: Sailing Vessel calling, We need your boats name.
    me: Copy that Traffic, This is Traffic requesting a traffic report how copy?…..
    and goes on and on. How cruel hu? :mrgreen: :mrgreen: I’m not worried. Once they know its me they should get a laugh out of it.

    Not really. It’s only successful if you can find a great way to market it. I’ve come across people that had great ideas that could have made them millions if only they knew how to market their ideas. With good marketing skill one could sell rocks to people happy to buy them. Remember the pet rock from 1975? Some say people were very stupid back then. Hum really? What about today? Bottled water? Come on!! Next will be caned AIR! No really. I’ve see a place that sell AIR at (get this) .50 cents. Next they will have to charge us to use the toilet. Wait they already do.

    Hi. I noticed that there are no “Y” words. This word is something many of us eat, but it is a strange name. In addition to something we eat, this word reminds me of a scary movie I enjoyed as a kid. It has to do with a substance found coming out of the ground and is marketed as a food that turns the people into zombies. The move is called, “The Stuff”. It came out in 1985. The word I am requesting is “YOGURT”. Thanks Hot For Words.

    Hmm, well you know the written language can never convey entirely what a person is trying to say, the tone of a voice when a word is said the body language, and inflection of how there spoken the gestures and articulation, body movements and facial movements all add up to a language, and where a person is from can have a profound impact on the understanding of whats being said. I don’t claim to be famous but i am somewhat known in my field of work locally Other than that i’m just a regular guy, but probably viewed as kind of eccentric.

    By work I mean combining sexyness with learning. I remember the most from teachers I found attractive. I suppose this qualifies as multi-channel stimulation. The more pathways activated during the memory process, the better the memory. You, dear Marina, are hitting all the buttons…lol. Thank your for being the sexy teacher you are.

    Another question or two.
    How about teaching Russian ?
    What languages do you speak?
    Do you think in more than one language or do you find yourself translating in your head as you go?
    I want to be more fluent in other languages, but I know i need much more practice.

    wordlover thats a tough one to answer for me, thats just the only way i could get the concept out of my mind and onto paper, perhaps you should ask some one with more knowledge than me. That would be a good one to ask Marina, i’m just at a loss for words to explain without farther thought on it.

  • BillyB

    “Comlimentary peanuts” yeah.
    Guy goes into a bar, pulls out a little piano, plunks it on the bar.
    pulls a one foot tall man out of his pocket & places him on the bar & orders a beer. the beer comes & the one foot tall man dressed in a tux, sits at the piano & starts to play “Beethoven” like it’s never been heard before. The guy chugs his beer & backhands the liitle player off the little bench across the bar. The little guy picks himself up straightens his tux & heads back to the piano.
    The guy orders another beer & the one foot tall man plays “Chopin” like the angels would. Another chugalug & again a backhand whack sends him flying accross the bar., picks himself up, brushes off & heads back to the piano.
    The guy orders another beer. bartender says hey buddy, what’s wrong? this little guy makes great music & all as you do is give him abuse, Wassup with that?
    Guy says “I found & bottle on the beach, rubbed it & a Jeannie said he’d grant me one wish & he thought I said that I wanted a 12 inch pianist”
    People who only know metric, 30 centimetere pianist.
    Heard that one on public radio.

    Issac Newton the father of gravity? Issac Newton may have seen the effects of gravity but he could not explain how it worked. Even today know one can prove that the elusive graviton exists. Of all the forces, gravity appears to be the weakest force of them all, which make no sense at all. Hopefully when LHC comes online we will find an clue that we are on the right track. Does the Higgs boson exists??? :twisted: Higgs (75) had requested that he be put on life support until the answer has been found. :shock:

    All this talk about Vectoring is driving me nuts. :roll: I have to teach vectoring in my next class. :shock:

    Hey Marina! Will you teach my next class so I can take a day off? I don’t think my students wouldn’t mind. You could talk about the pros & cons of fans stocking video stars. They have the same problem. I saw three girls ask for their autographs right outside of my class room. I guess women are just as bad as men.
    Oh and I need you to talk about how to do a set and drift vector while your at it. Its some kind of CG requirement. Tnks. :mrgreen:

    P.S. Oh and one more thing. Since your good at talking about radio protocol I need ya to fill in for Captain John’s high school class on Wednesday and talk about radio communication. Its only a 45 min class so is should be easy for you. Captain John has a few yacht surveys to complete that day. Tnks your a pal. :grin:

    I can’t discuss about the civilian meanings for the words: over, WILCO and charlie. But, since Uncle Sam Ain’t Released Me Yet, I can tell you how they are currently used in the US military.

    Over – means that I am done talking, now it’s your turn
    WILCO – I understand and WILl COmply
    Charlie – the letter ‘C’
    Out – means the conversation is finished

    Since ‘Roger’ means ‘I understand’, you should never say Roger, WILCO, because it is redundant.
    The same applies to saying ‘Over and Out’, since the two words contradict each other.

    Due to the computerization of the US military, the use of the phonetic alphabet and pro-words is becoming smaller. A large portion of the communications traffic is done by texting or e-mail. Thanks to the conversion of voice communications to digital form for transmission, static and fade are rare, so they are held using the same American english used on the phone.

    P.S. – Based on the above text, can you tell what branch of the US military I belong to? :wink:

    That should get them clicking.

    WARNING:! Mature content

    the Silencers – I see Red

    The TV`s on in the blues soft room
    A twist of lemon in the mouth of the moon
    The intercom cracks with vitriol
    I`ve just been talking to a voice in the wall

    I`ve got these pills and they keep me sane
    I had a jab now I feel no pain

    Then I wake up from a dream and
    I`m still dreaming and it`s total silence
    But I`m still screaming

    You say that God`s got a narrow mind
    You say that Heaven is a home for the blind
    You think you`re clever being cruel this way
    I`m so scared I might get carried away
    Away

    I`ve got these pills and they keep me sane
    I had a jab now I feel no pain

    Then I wake up from a dream and
    I`m still dreaming and it`s total silence
    But I`m still screaming

    When I see you
    I see Red
    I see Red
    And what do I do
    I see Red Red Red

    You feed me poison but I`m still alive
    You give me money but I`m still deprived
    And in return for all my love all my love
    You give me sex and prayers and molotovs

    I`ve got these dreams and they keep me sane
    I`ve got my friends and we think the same

    Then I wake up from a dream and
    I`m still dreaming and it`s total silence
    But I`m still screaming

    When I see you
    I see Red
    I see Red
    And what do I do
    I see Red Red Red

    [Word Request]

    Why do some words have silent letters? like pneumonic or Opossum?

  • melikadothechacha

    just as there is a weak and strong nuclear force,
    it may be that there are also weak and strong
    fields of gravitational force. gravitons may act
    interdimensionally which is why none, so far,
    have been detected. Examination of energy
    states in a vacuum reveal a brownian motion
    present, resultant from matter being created
    and instantaneously cancelled out by antimatter.
    ie. particles travelling interdimensionally have
    a physical acting force in our dimension.

    Hey pros. I like you… have you read the Bible through? I have, twice & studied some sections more. I don’t believe I’ve even scratched the surface of the content.
    Most folks use the Bible to back up agenda that they espouse & use portions out of context to fortify their presupositions. Also many theological thinkers go down the road of acedemia only, getting lost & missing the point altogether. I’ll say no more on that here.
    I can’t help but hear some bitterness in some of your writing though & that saddens me. later

    The words sun and son, relating to religion. Jesus is said by the bible to be the “son” of god. Not only do many say that Christianity is a disguised form of sun worship, but the words are the same. Can you find any significance to this “coincidence” in english and maybe other languages like hebrew?

    I was wondering how a graviton might move from one dimension to the other. Brownian motion makes sense to me on how it would be pushed along.
    I don’t see how matter could be created and canceled out instantaneously would have any effect on us unless this particle could exist for a short period of time. Is that (in theory) would be happening :?:

    It would be a quite strange world we live in to discover other parallel universes existing right next to us. Funny how we answer many questions about the universe only to discover a lot more questions to answer. Will it ever end? I hope not!

    Actually, wordlover, it is probable that tap water is generally safer than bottled water.

  • prospero811

    Sure have, BillyB. I’m working on a project that I might be able to publish centering around the moral lessons to be drawn from the Bible. I’ve found that despite my atheism, I seem to know more about the Bible, and the Book of Mormon, and the Qu’ran, than the vast majority of theists I speak to. I’ve read them all, and many other religious texts. I find them all fascinating, although overwhelmingly false in their claims concerning the material universe, and baseless in their metaphysical claims.

    I don’t have any bitterness toward religion, though. Their claims about the physical world are just not true. That doesn’t remove all value from the works themselves.

    @ WL, No I don’t normally purge my cache. In fact I just purged it last night for the first time in like a year. It (FireFox) normally figures it out after a few days that I had changed it. I have my cache set at 100 megs. Yea way to much but until my internet speeds up more I’m just going to keep it up there for a bit. :grin:

    Does that answer your question your highness? :mrgreen:

    Marina, I (and a few others I believe) already mentioned this. If you had a pay site where you give one or two Russian language lessons a week mixed with come cultural insights and your sense of humor you could charge say $5 per week/$60 per year (minimum), and if an estimated 4,000 students from your various web sites joined that would be $240,000 per year, minus whatever your operating expenses are. You’d probably need a bigger server and a tech to help run it, but even after operating expenses you should be left with a nice little chunk of change. Just a thought. If you do it, sign me up please. Currently you’re providing a service that you could be making a living off of. I know you’re young and beautiful, but trust me, it doesn’t last. It’s not too early to start thinking about your retirement.

    Yeah, either a “bikini” video, or a “teddy” video!!

    The teddy video is not about teddybears, it’s just a video with Marina in a “teddy”. :wink:

    An apple for the teacher is so old school. Why not a 1000 shares In Apple Computer Inc?

    Oh, nice word request! I echo that request.

  • turtlewax

    I breifly thought the same thing. :grin:

  • turtlewax

    Maybe it’s an excuse for Marina to go on a vacation?
    Much like the Naked video, I suspect she’d actually go to the Bikini Atoll and maintain her normal attire.

  • chejo

    you are awesome. i want to know the origin of yari yara, bla bla bla, may be this is obvious in english but my first lenguage is spanish… :lol:

  • sirscratchalot05

    if you dont mind looking this up for me beautiful. but i would like to know why when speaking over a radio, why we say number so wierd. for example three over the radio is to be pronounced tree. four-fower, five- fife and nine- niner. ever since ive joined the military ive wondered why we have to say them differently.

  • koalabear

    Yes cha-cha, we eat eucalyptus gum leaves all day, everday. :sad:
    It leaves us pretty bit spaced out and cranky.

    shave it. the days of magnum are over.

    if you feel like it, shave your head, too. very convenient. no shampoo, no combing, no nothing.

  • koalabear

    Marina doesn’t need to go to Bikini atoll, she radiates enough beauty and charm already. :grin:

    I hope brown-nosing helps to queue-jump in the pet-of-the-day queue or I’ve wasted a lot of sucking up here.

    Where did the word Blues as related to a form of music originate.

  • BillyB

    You were busy in the Kitchen, “Galley” http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=mNUaT5ARx2M or maybe you need a tanslator, from the movie that brought us vector victor, captain over… http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=P-xHPU6NulM&feature=related This was the corniest crap movie ever, but it worked, (My wifes favorite flick) kinda like reading the comments here.
    This scene starts as a spoof of the captain highliner commercials & deteriorates as usual. http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=LOErGkotSRc

    No you are certainly not dense. As far as i am concerned if anyone is sane enough to question their own sanity or clever enough to question their own intelligence (in the reasoning form), then he is neither insane nor stupid. It is people that genuinely think they are superior ~(not to be confused with people that act to cover up their insecurities) that annoy (US = bug ? ) me

    Sometimes my punning can be a bit profound
    1) because you don’t know what to expect from me,
    2) because of the culture and language differences within the US let alone from Texas to the UK. You are a good fellow… modest

    If you imagine a Penthouse style Paris Hilton calendar please and read the sentence again. No longer clear as mud. Had I been a little more clever i would have followed November with ‘Those pink panties really suit her.’ or her nipples are so erect in the sea etc etc ‘

    When Paris was in the newspapers last year for stepping out of the car with no panties, I put her on a £20 note and posted on ebay with the title. ‘Furry Beaver spotted at the Hilton in the upskirts of Paris,’
    Beaver is slang for vagina (is it used in US ?)

    To celebrate Naomi Campbell’s ironic judicial sentence, I also posted another one With Naomi Campbell as the charwoman Hilda Ogden with rollers in her hair and a mop and bucket done on photopaint
    No doubt you won’t watch this from the US but it is a soap opera still going after 49 years , the show is daily and the longest and most successful ever so they say, I hate it. . Watched by 90% of women and 50% of men in UK our Queen’s favourite programme being her only proper view of the English working classes for her.

    The reason I asked about Texas is I sooooo loved DALLAS. with Larry Hagman Patrick Duffy and Victoria Principal as the Ewing family . Who did shoot JR ? I always like Texas after this programme. Are you old enough to know about this ?

  • dark knight

  • prospero811

    Where did onan go? He was in the garden planting flowers, and accidentally spilled his seed.
