    mwah! .. prefect video for the New Yorker!

    however .. you have to cross fade between those cuts! .. they jar a little!

    …step aside kid you’re crowding me :razz:

    …..just wondering how Virginia Heffernan is taking this :grin:

  • buzzword

    damn, the new yorker, la de da!

  • buzzword

    oh yeah, i read her in the new york times, the medium.

    ….correct, NY Times different than The New Yorker magazine
    now I remember :smile:

  • http://www.youtube.com/CheVolay Che Volay

    …so this is going to me a regular thing in the New Yorker and we need a subscription to watch each installment? :???:

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/frostyEnumerator mijj

    i guess the content for that link will change.

  • danielpool

    The New Yorker Big Time i am happy for you :lol:

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/frostyEnumerator mijj

    i’m not sure which would be better .. M on Colbert Report or M doing this intro stuff for the New Yorker (is this regular?)

    course, both would be best.

    … and keep doing Bill O’Reilly for the irony. :)

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/frostyEnumerator mijj

    i’m so pleased for M that i have to post a link to this song again ..
    [Busi Mhlongo - Izinziswa]

  • http://www.youtube.com/CheVolay Che Volay

    The Daily Show and when her book comes out Colbert Report,
    M we be so busy promoting the new book.

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/frostyEnumerator mijj

    not so sure M would suit the Daily Show .. that’s more on-the-nose political.

    Colbert has more light fun angle. i can easily imagine an end interview with M .. probably focus and play with M’s russian background (cos his persona is the cartoon right winger) and general distracting sexiness, etc. I can’t imagine how a Daily Show end interview would go.

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/frostyEnumerator mijj

    oh yeh .. i still think the book was the wrong idea .. it should have been a series of comics.

    .. however, as usual .. i will be proven wrong .. and happy to be so. :)

    i’m sure you are already Talk of the Town… :cool:

    .. or a dirucer! :idea:

  • originalistrick

    Congratulations, Dear Teach! What a great media opp. for you. Loved the lesson, too. Thanks, as always. By the way,your hair looked exceptionally beautiful. Again, thanks and all the best.

  • wetsuit5

    Very Very Nice video Marina.
    But so not New Yorker style.
    I understood it.
    But maybe that’s cause I’m a New Yorker.

  • pandion

    The New Yorker,
    does that mean our teacher is finally being accepted by the intellectual elite, or at least those who think they are?

  • http://www.youtube.com/CheVolay Che Volay

    ….yes, the high brow sect of high society :grin:

  • http://18wheels.mevio.com/ Warren

    Hello Marina,
    What!? No high heels for the occasion?
    I like that you wore shorts, and whatever that shirt is called, while the average New Yorker is most likely bundling up against the cold weather.
    A tue Californian you have become though it seems that you’re more like Californium (long lived and radioactive).
    Another excellent lesson and reference added to your impressive resume.
    Thank you , Marina

  • BillyB

    The cartoon lounge Y/T site… is Marina going to be posting vids for them. The only other vid there is a stuck 41 hours in an elevator… sorry “fun-evator”…41 hours, no toilet, fun :?:

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/frostyEnumerator mijj

    christ! .. it just occurred to me. .. Marina has a link from the New Yorker to this site! … all those respectable, educated people will see what a load of fatuous old bollocks we talk.

    we must spruce up our act and speak only of intellectual things.

    … erm .. such as .. hmmmm ….

  • http://www.youtube.com/CheVolay Che Volay

    …….like have you seen the new video from the frostynumerator channel old chap, it’s quite smashing indeed. …..could I pour you some more Earl Gray Tea, care for a ginger biscuit :???:

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/frostyEnumerator mijj

    I say, Che, old sprout. Did you just offer me a gay biscuit?

    Just what are you implying? (Not that there’s anything wrong with “ginger” biscuits.)

    Duel at dawn! .. your choice of weapon, ol’ bean.

  • http://www.youtube.com/CheVolay Che Volay

    …does a ginger biscuit have another meaning in GB, ….thought biscuit was another way to say cookie

    I accept your challenge

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/frostyEnumerator mijj

    “ginger” is rhyming slang, donchaknow! (from those coarse cockney fellows)

    ginger <- ginger beer <- queer

  • onlycasperman

    This is wonderful my sweet friend!

  • http://www.bikengruvin.com/slide.htm Recycle-logical-1

    Indubitably! I’ll call Higgins (Magnum PI) and see if he can give us some tips. :lol:

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/frostyEnumerator mijj

    i hope your agent is working hard to make the New Yorker thing regular! (i assume your agent is responsible .. just guessing tho)

  • darlingj

    Very, Very Good! :grin:

    Although the vid’s been viewed 8,000 times or something, SOME number of those people I’m sure have become fans, and how excellent to see it up there on their site as I write this 8 months later.

    Your content has broad appeal, and capturing a slice of demographic from the [Hoity-Toity] at the New Yorker certainly doesn’t hurt!

    Items like this broaden and add continued credibility to your body of work and broaden a firm foundation of viewers.

    You’ve got me thinking again about how many other long-lasting or prestigious publications or ‘Institutions’ you might get a toe-hold into like this…

    Even a one-time thing like this that stays on their site because it is relevant to their biz creates lasting exposure to a relatively small audience…but done in hundreds of places would be very powerful in the aggregate.

    Ref Items 4 & 7 in my very first post…

    Jody

    PS – You are Amazing! :grin:

  • http://www.hotforwords.com Marina

    Thanks Jody I still want to syndicate my videos like you said! Maybe when I start my book tour I’ll think of a way of doing that for each of the places I visit.

  • darlingj

    I think THAT would be a GREAT idea, and wouldn’t overwhelm you with too much to do…the major interviews you do on the book tour would be natural places to leave behind such a vid…

  • beevee14

    What about making a videography :?: of the book tour? You could market it right here. Kind of a Kathy Griffin type thing but without the cussing. Or with! :twisted:

    Hey, M, you love The Woz, get him to do a cameo!(Griffin tie-in) :?:

    Just spitballin’

  • leonard

    Whats up? :mrgreen:

    naught much, mate. ‘ow’s yisself?

  • darlingj

    O’Reilly needs an ‘O’Reilly Words’ page on his website – linking to his O’Reilly words – you’ve done most of them already – EASY to do, you are a regular, he loves you, etc.

    Is this something your Publicist can arrange, or should I have a talk with him? ;-)

    It enhance HIS brand…not a charity request…he will respond to that.

    You have earned it and again it would be a natural.

  • darlingj

    I checked…there is already a ‘Body Language’ tab on his Fox website – Tanya R – just a few steps ahead of you in his long term lineup.

    Not ‘competitiion’ at all – he has a cadre of ladies he brings along to balance and soften his ‘macho’ and brusque style.

    You are PERFECT for him and connect to a younger audience.

    DO IT! Do it now!

    A simple suggestion by your Publicist to his Producers could make it happen in a phone call with the right ‘pitch’…
