John Kerwin Show Interview (Excerpt)
For those of you who missed it, here is an excerpt from my John Kerwin Interview. Plus, with a little dating tip thrown in! It works, I’m telling you! :-)
Please rate and comment over at YouTube to help it be seen. Thanks! Marina

I made a video response to this on YouTube.
Marina, I have to disagree with r0bw00d’s comment on YouTube for the Lakers lesson. I think the cascade on your right can use a little adjusting snips. Also, there was no need for you to admonish us to not laugh at the outtakes — there really wasn’t anything funny there.
I am not welsh, I visited the station many years ago and deceied that getting Marina to try and pronouce it, ande describe the english translation for the station woiuld be kinda fun. looks like my copy n paste skills are not what they should be though :p
Marina, it looks like you may be aware, or not of chartbeat and woopra slowing down the page refresh.
Same for me too. I just blocked it with my adblocker software. I have slow internet here. Just waiting for WiMax to come to Clearwire then I’ll have some acceptable speeds and greater range. I’m exited about this WiMax because I’ve heard of ranges of about 10 to 20 miles off shore and 30 miles on land. All this at about 6mbps.
hi, i would like to know the origin of the phrase [Bull's eye]
Thanks :razz:
[speck, speckle, speckled]
sorry mrskate1000 not mtskate1000
Dear Hotforwords,
On youtube I am mtskate1000 and I would like to know the origin for the word “Horror” thank you. :mrgreen: :smile:
The quoted text after the word typing should read “obama@amp;whitehouse.gov”. (When I tried to correct that by edit, it said that the comment was marked as spam and would not be allowed to be edited. What’s that all about?)
Marina, have you seen this article which just came out.
Someone over at Liberty University likes you. :grin:

For those of you who don’t tweet, I am a Papa again. Maia is finally having her kittens: 3 white, 1 gray, and possibly a black (still in the process on that one.) :grin:
cool..remember back about my Queenie…that was April…stories there too
:smile: I appreciated your concern last winter…thanks
Maia seems fine, so far. She did get caught up in a power cord, but my daughter rescued her. I wanna stay with her, but I really need to get to bed. Had to mow the grass after work this morning…
Aha! Aha! Aha!
The last but surely not the least!!
For once in my life I can say ” I AM PROUD THIS VIDEO IS MINE” So go and watch it..

It’s getting close to the time for a new computer, maybe someone has an idea when Apple is going to make the next big leap forward. It would be nice to get in on the beginning of the cycle.
Confident I can make the adjustment from PC to Apple, it has been a while since I played on an Apple, in college we used the Mac for Architectural drawing. At times I would be drafting on the Mac with one hand & writing text specs on a PC with the other hand. Guess I was kind of an overachiever.
Once you go Apple you always go back {to the Mac}
What is the difference between an Apple(Mac) and a PC(besides no Microsoft)? I have never used a Mac but everyone I talked to says they are very user friendly but a computer is a computer. Damn, I wish I would have paid more attention to the AV guys in H.S. They’re probably millionaires and I’m sitting here trying to get Che to answer ONE simple question(actually TWO questions). YT, Che?
OK found it, look for reply at YT
The Apple hardware is tightly contolled by one company vs. the PC that anyone can build, so there are fewer unknowns. Thus the software people write for a well-defined (albeit more expensive) set of hardware, allowing the software to be better integrated with the hardware. All the differences between the two platforms result from that. Otherwise a computer is a computer.
The difference is in the fashion statement, with an Apple I get to wear denim wash jeans, sandals & smart funny slogans on my tee-shirt.
The PC is more pleated slacks, penny loafers, button down shirt + tie. :grin:
No wonder I have problems! I’m wearing the wrong uniform.
Next week it’ll be a sarong and flip-flops. :cool:
and sunglasses.
I got your email about the URL and @link but it is not here under the comment you replied from.
Someone is editing so as to keep the truth from us, Marina is it you?
Before my @Che Volay link went to a guy named @Che and not my Twitter profile. Then it switch back again to my profile page.
You can read my reply to Chev. It kind of hard to explain here the differences between the platforms until you take mac out for a test drive for a few weeks. I find that Macs just work well. No need to mess with virus software (I don’t remember the last time I ran my anti-virus software) Drivers are not an issue, as they are on Windows Vista. Now all the new macs come with Intel chips so they are nearly identical with PC hardware. The prices compete very well. Now you’ll hear people say there are cheaper PCs out there and yeah sure but if you look under the hood really closely you will find lower featured parts. Especially in the video processors. Many of these PC that you pay $500 or so have horrible video cards in them. Their find for videos and web surfing but suck and any games, simulator, etc. If I were to buy a PC again I would spend at least $1,000 worth of hardware to match what a comparable Mac has. Like the old saying goes, you get what you pay for.
You really need to try out a Mac. Take it for a test drive and see for your self if user friendly is for you. Funny thing is there are some people that don’t like that. To this day I don’t understand this thinking. Oh well all is to each their own. :smile:
__/)__
You’re right Jack, I know from experience, I had to upgrade my video card and audio card to get the maximum benefit on my PC.
Yeah that’s an old marketing trick that the industry practices often. They take the same box and strip things out of it to lower the cost to meet your price point. DvD and VCR players are a good example of this practice. The guts in most of them has not changed in years but the outsides change very year. I found a cheap DVD player and it had buttons removed from the mother board to down grade it. It was the same board for the expensive DVD player. The idea is you’re paying for the ‘access’ to the features and not really the hardware. It’s cheaper for the company to manufacture one product and then add or remove features to fit everyone difference in price points. The main goal of product sales it to find a way to get you to part with your money every year or so. It looks good to the investors.
The best way to be on the band wagon on the next leap forward it so to be on the wagon. You really won’t understand the leaps until you’ve been driving a Mac for awhile. If you go visit apple’s website and watch the videos of the keynote speeches to get you up to speed. After awhile you’ll get an idea how apple thinks and they give you clues on the next great thing they are working on. It’s nearly a completely new OS from the last time you used a mac.
As for me Apple is the only way to go. I like not having to mess with the OS all the time. I would rather just get my work done and not have to worry about messing with the OS. I freaking hate Windows Vista! It makes my stomach turn just thinking about it. I hope MS learned their lesson and the next upgrade should be much better. They really need to drop the legacy code and start anew like apple did. Then MS will be a much better product.
As you well as you know our dear teacher has has a few macs herself. She even had a major data failure and Apple’s Time Machine software saved her. Like my friend Kyle always says about the Apple computers,”It just works.” :mrgreen:
I want to buy at the next major upgrade in software & technology, so I will monitor Apple R&D and get in on the appropriate time. Even knowing it will change again in six mts.
You won’t know what the next major upgrade is for they are working very hard to keep it all under wraps for obvious reasons. Playing the next upgrade race is a no win. It’s like a freeway. Just get on the damn freeway and drive. Technology changes everyday. Just buy what you wish to pay and go with that. As for the OS just get what comes with the computer and upgrade later. It’s only $129 to upgrade the OS. That’s where the meat of the Apple is at. Apple does give discounts or free upgrades if they buy just before an upgrade. For example I bought an iMac G3 years ago and they came out with a brand new iMac G3 with more ram and other features so they upgraded me to the new one. I had to wait an extra month to get it but no worries. Apple tends to be rather fair when it comes to things like that.
So I suggest you just go out and get one now. Don’t put it off. You’ll end up in a rut of the upgrade anxiety. :smile:
“Upgrade Anxiety” is a good term for it. lol
why the hell would you want to get a mac?
Like I said above Alex it’s a ‘fashion statement’ :smile:
Maybe ‘Fashion Statement’ could be Apple’s new slogan.
I guess I want the challenge of learning something totally new. I’ll always have an older PC around to play with.
It won’t hurt to broaden my horizons.
Che’s funny tweet for the day is:
Homophones are more fraternal than identical.
@Che Volay
How did that link get screwed up? The whole thing was in blue and why did it go to that guy’s Twitter account?
So something changed here, every time you text an @twitternamehere it turns into a link.
Is this what James was trying to say?
@CheVolay if I don’t put the space in this should go to my profile page.
OK something is weird here, you still need the h ref to link.
By “that guys account” I meant the Twitter name ‘Che’
We have long known that WordPress converts a URL typed in a comment into a link, with the URL also displayed as the text. If you type “@ zzz” (omitting the space I have inserted), it will convert that into a link as follows:
Therefore WP “knows” that an @ immediately followed by text is a twitter reference, WHETHER IT REALLY IS OR NOT. For example, if I type someone’s E-mail address in the normal format using an @, it will attempt to convert it to a Twitter reference EVEN THOUGH THAT IS CONTRARY TO THE WRITER’S INTENTION. So now we have a new rule that we must be aware of in order to not trigger that feature. This is poor programming to say the least!
Because the @ was used to form E-mail addresses long before Twitter was around, users do (and should) expect to be able to use the @ for E-mail addresses and Twitter be damned. IMHO, this feature should be disabled and writer’s should type Twitter links out using a normal anchor tag; Twitter should be the tail, not the dog. Until this is done, one must now use a workaround, namely use the HTML entity for the ampersand instead of simply typing @. So, instead of typing “obama@whitehouse.gov”, you must type “obama&whitehouse.gov” to prevent setting off the twit feature. Marina, is this the kind of crap you want to put user’s through? WP should be optimized for general ease of use, not Twitter-dominance.
I wrote a comment here, but it got “marked as spam” by WP, so I will do it again and keep doing it until I get it in.
WP now converts an @ immediately followed by text (i.e. no intervening space) into a Twitter link. This is poor programming, because the ampersand has been in use in E-mail addresses long before Twitter existed. This feature should be turned off, because users expect to be able to use the ampersand for other than Twitter references.
Meanwhile, users will have to follow a special rule in order to use the ampersand for other than a Twitter reference. Instead of typing [Shift-2] to get the ampersand, type the HTML entity “@”. This will not be an actual ampersand, but instead the command to display an ampersand. Thus the user can see the ampersand, but the Twitter converter will not be triggered off. What a pain…
Now it’s all blue again, Marina you tweaking again b/c I didn’t get the memo.
Can’t help but notice the increase in tweets to @hotforwords over in the ‘Twitpic’. Boys & girls are trying to get notice for the lunch date. :shock:
{☞ Che }
I have heard that some people are saying[give me a sigarette] when someone are shooting at eachother. what does this mean?
In this Twitpic of Marina http://twitpic.com/64eti
I described her as [ wide eyed and bushy tailed ]
Check into the origin of that Marina, and I think
that it would make for a very interesting lesson. :grin:
Right after that link went up to my Twitter account I started getting marketing type followers. So I’m guessing there is a bot which scans this site for links as well as email address.
Was that you who went to edit my link to save me such a nuisance?
Hi Che,
No, I didn’t edit your link.
As an experiment, to see if there are bots, I’ll be the bait to see what happens. It is pretty neat that when you enter the at sign with your username, that text automatically turns into a Twitter URL. Let’s see what happens. @pedantickarl
I only thought the @username turned into the URL but it didn’t, you still need to href it. It was just strange what happen, like someone was editing it right in front of my eyes.
Maybe CJ or Marina did. Wish someone would let me know.
I think they are the only two who have editing abilities, is that a fact?
Hey Che,
All I do is type: @pedantickarl
and it automatically turns into a URL.
You don’t need href as the software takes care of it.
If you type @username nothing happens because that is a non existent Twitter account, or actually suspended account.
Che,
I see that my link has disappeared above, so yes, Marina may be testing the automated feature when the at sign is used. Without the automated feature, then yes, you would need to construct the link yourself with the “a href” code.
Read my comment to CK, his reply was emailed to me but it is not under my comment. Even if he deleted it a empty box would still be there. Someone is keeping the truth from us.
Big mystery :shock:
Reply to CK from above
I saw this on the news on then I noticed it was actually near my house

@HotForWords
Here’s an interesting word:
[INFINGE] It comes from the word [INFRINGE], but it got distracted at the Cannes Film festival and forgot who it was for a little while.
Now it lives as an embarrassing typo in the HotForWords Terms-of-Use agreement in the Disclaimer of Warranties paragraph. Anybody insecure about her ability to spell?
http://www.hotforwords.com/hotforwords-terms-of-use/
Now anyone truly on the ball would instantly fix all typos brought to their attention. So now, thanks to the eagle-eyed FVS, we have something new to watch while we wait for an actual lesson (vs. a blurb), namely, how long will it take for M (or her minions) to fix it. Each day, sometime after midnight, one of us will review the aforementioned text, and, if the typo is still there, will post a message of “Day N” (and nothing more), where N is the number of days from today. For today’s msg only, FVS’s find will serve as “Day 1″.
Maybe when we get up to Day 722 or so, they will get so embarrassed that the order will go out: “Fix the damned thing, already!”
Hey! Since my YT audio is dead, how about some kind-hearted soul type up the script of the “lesson” so I can read it? It will be a service for the deaf and codec-less. I will just imagine M’s voice while the video plays. AT&T Labs used to have a free text-to-voice app, but it wouldn’t synch to the video and imaginining synchronization would be too hard for me. Or I could read her part out loud. (It wouldn’t be quite as cute, but I could insert juicy-hot phrases that would make my toes curl.)
Hey! Hey! After reading all about codec tweaking, registry key modifications, etc., for the last few days (none of which seemed to be a likely [culprit]), I got the inspiration to play Mr. Stupid User and peruse the YT FAQs. It seems there is a volume control on the YT viewer that applies only to YT and, lo and behold, that was the problem. I can’t imagine how it got fiddled with, nor how it failed one day, worked another and then failed again. At least I know what to do now.
Now that I can “hear” again, should I just forget about the typed scripts on the theory of “screw everyone else,” or should I pursue it with M?
They were talking bad about you on YT but you didn’t hear. :razz:
seperate volume control, you know?..[subservient] :?:
AAH!! I’m all alone! “all by myselllf” :cry: Join me someone!
Hi James, time to wake up, the sun is shining and it’s going to be a scorcher. :smile:
You’re not alone, James. The Great Flavog is always watching.
hmm
[badonkadonk]
i would like to request [presume] or [presumption] i use these words quite often, and would love to learn more on the word
Hi, i would like to request the word [spelling bee] :D
I would like to request the words [infidel] and [Zinfandel]. They sound remarkably the same. Is there a connection between the two?
I would like the word sardoodledom please. [SARDOODLEDOM]
:oops: [dream] :lol:
I need to settle this once and for all. [Hispanic]
Hi Marina I would like to request the word [dreamboat].
Hello, i would like to request the word [schizophrenia]
Are you asking for a friend? lol :roll:
She was just yankin’ the guys chain about the pick-up line. :idea:
Marina is a little joker
But is she a smoker and a midnight toker? :mrgreen:
I really love your peaches ♫ ♪
Want to shake your tree ♫ ♪
Lovey-dovey, lovey-dovey, lovey-dovey all the time ♫ ♪
Ooo-eee baby, Ill sure show you a good time ♫ ♪
(Excerpt The Joker by Steve Miller)
I would like to request [calf] / [calves] and why are new cows called calves and our lower legs called calves also? :shock:
Also icebergs breaking off from a glacier is called [calving].
Good interview, Marina! But why is the sound kind of muffled? And is that ‘dating tip’ one that worked on you, or did you observe it with others?
It’s muffled alright! I haven’t heard a word for two or three lessons.
Marina, Mom’s right. You do look more respectable when you dress more modestly for these interviews. :neutral:
I read you and I agree. :wink:
I would like to requet the word [retard] because i know that it means to hold back the development or progress of something. I was wondering why the word reatrd became such a rude and negative words. I hope hot for words can investigate!
your fan: XxMODIFIEDKILLERXx
sorry i spelt retard wrong sorry
And Requet
To retard basically means to slow down; mentally retarded means just mentally slow or limited. Using “retard” (pronounced RE-tard) as a noun to describe someone in a negative sense is what made it ‘politically incorrect’ to even use it rightly. The connotations and new usages people apply to words eventually can ruin the legitimate use of certain words.
I would like to request the word [sidesalad] how did we start calling items salads. Is salad a term for tossed or mixed up?
Gee, didn’t work for me. I told the woman at the bar that her moustache looked a little darker in this unlit bar and got a drink thrown in my face :cry:
:grin: About as effective as, “you sweat less than any fat girl I know.”
:mrgreen:
Hi Marina
My first post, I want to start by telling you how much I enjoy your Youtube videos. They are informative, funny and you are gorgeous. Love your accent :wink:
The word I would like you to talk about is [Legendary]
Thank you!
CaiWilli
hey Ms HotForWords!
i still would like you to explain the origin of [Rubik's cube]
nice interview by the way
keep doing your videos.
:)
Now you are going to have every man on this site (and YouTube) trying to figure out what you are insecure about :!: :razz: What were you thinking :?: :roll: :lol: :wink:
Great interview ;)
Hey Marina, :razz:
I got a few word & phrase requests on this comment. First,these people have caused trouble on the high seas throughout time and have recently made the NEWS from the coast of Somalia, so I’d like to know the origin for the word [PIRATE]. The second one is [RELIGION], in which in my opinion is the real cause of wars and instability on planet Mother Earth in which we all try to share. And third is [EAT THE RICH] dont you know that life is a bitch!
I also wanted to request this simple word “car” but you’ve already covered it,and of course you did an excellent job with that! Well any ways Marina maybe you might know this “oldie but goodie.”
And by the way you looked very nice and did a very good job on that interview, that show must only air in that area. Bravo Marina :smile:
It works to what end? :lol: Are you encouraging us to use this tip… for good relations or for an [ artful ] way towards psychological dominance? :shock: :razz:
huh? WhaddImiss? To what are referring, bird?
Didn’t you notice Marina’s suggestion for a chat-up line?
Not sure about it – seems like a good way to get a punch on the nose, criticising a woman’s hairdo.
Oh that. Yeah, I thought the same thing. I can see me telling Mrs. Somebody, “You know, if you wore that other dress, it wouldn’t make your butt look so big.” I just don’t see how that would work in my favor :roll: .
Bob’s seeing what I was seeing.
It might be better to tell a woman… “you have a very nice smile… it reminds me of my favorite aunt… when she was… 97!” :grin:
I still remember HotForWord´s first day.Congratlations, you made it… now you´re really famous. :mrgreen:
By the way… are still there Buzzword and aLx?

[sowing your wild oats]. When I was 17 and the Army recuiter came to my house and talked to me and my parents about my enlisting at 17 after high school. the man asked various questions. and one was about do I have any [wild oats] out there? Of course, this means illegiitmate children. My brother Christopher’s daughter Amanda was born a bastard. but later he married Kathy the mother temporarily. My father was an immigrant from Germany and born in Romania. And he was learning to speak English as he went. It seemed every other word he used towards me was DUMMY! So the unacademic lingo of the army was amusing to me at times. Like the Basic Training marching song THE WEDDING WAS A FORMAL ONE; HER FATHER HAD A WHITE SHOTGUN!!! So, that might be another phrase to trace [Shotgun wedding]!!! Another amusing one was at the black movie house THE PANTHEON THEATRE in 1977 my senior year in high school. It was a black movie house run by whites. But one expression came out of one movie quite a bit [BAD MOTHERFUCKER] and even was on Samuel L. Jackon’s wallet in the movie PULP FICTION. And you area cute sweet white Russian girl and look so pleased with yourself at times when you explain someting well!!
Got a video removed from youtube because I had Keeley Hazell on my greenscreen… My god.. How the hell do they find stuff like that? Are they actually that sad that they go around typing keeley hazell on YT trying to find people to mess around with? I don’t mind… I hated that video anyways…
STILL GOT A NOTICE!! 2 days ago I got my 6 month communtiy guideline notice removed..! WOO but they better remove this one or I willl go ape! :evil:
Now they just said this
So they sent me an email saying how they didnt think it was good enough when a computer looked at it!! How dare they.. Pretenticious bunch of twats!
Is this [misogyny] :?: :shock:
How would searching Keeley Hazell find your vid unless you put the words on your vid yourself?
it was in the tags
That’s what I thought. Silly you. Next time make it easier for them and just put “copyright infringement” in the tags. :mrgreen:
Did you have a sexy picture of her? Also.. you don’t own the rights to that picture so they have the right to remove your video. You really need to practice making videos without using copyrighted material. It really makes you have to be more creative that way.. so stop with the copyrighted stuff and you won’t have any more problems.
These sexy models and their photo shoots :!: Isn’t that in violation of my right to get a full night’s rest :?: :!: :lol:
http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_hcQ9fuWsv04/SV8S8pXwXvI/AAAAAAAABpY/mRFCkXRR4VE/s400/keeley_hazell_blog.jpg
That is some photo. I don’t know if there is room to s-l-i-d-e my hand in between without a crush injury, but I am will to take the risk. :lol:
:twisted: no rest for the wicked
http://www.shallownation.com/images/marina_orlova_hot_for_words_1.jpg
Keeley hazells assets are real you know!
No, it wasn’t sexy. She was wearing a burkha and wraparound sunglasses. Under that there were two padded mattress covers and a half-dozen burlap sacks, all held in place by the generous use of duct tape and stout twine. In fact, as she was dressed, she met all packaging requirements of the USPS, UPS and FedEx for shipment to any place in the world. With the addition of a layer of asphaltic paper and heat-sealed aluminum foil, she would meet U.S. military specifications for long-term storage of nuclear weapons, corn flakes and “Drawers, Cotton, Men’s.”
It’s true, I tell you.
Aww, that was a bit mean. But “she was wearing a burkha “{sic} Made me laugh
I want to understand this aspect of YouTube’s policy: So in a lesson such as In the buff, one would not have been allowed to use this picture of Marilyn Monroe having breakfast in bed in the buff — even if the script were modified so that the picture became “relevant” and the usage was for a short time (“fair use” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fair_use)? Or was the issue with James that he used the picture gratuitously (assuming his script did not involve that picture)?
I think in that buff shot of the lovely Marilyn Monroe she is there to endorse milk which is a healthy drink and suppose to be good for you :lol:
[milk]
[mother's milk]Nick Drake’s (beautiful) interpretation of Jackson C. Frank’s Milk and Honey. :razz:
:razz: [milked dry] :?:
A better way of asking my question might be: Does YouTube recognize and allow “Fair Use”?
It is almost impossible to say whether the use of a copyrighted work without prior permission of the copyright holder in an own work is permissible as fair use or not. The definition of fair use is very vague, and the limits of fair use can range from a few quotes in one case to the use of the whole work in another case: “Unfortunately, the only way to get a definitive answer on whether a particular use is a fair use is to have it resolved in federal cour.“. As we know, Youtube currently makes huge losses, so I don’t expect Youtube to spend a lot of money to fight for their users’ rights of fair use. When they receive a DMCA notice, I guess they’ll simply take the video down and wait for a counter-notice.
Another problem is that there is no common global copyright law. Things that may be permissible under American law may be forbidden under the laws of other countries and vice versa. Works that may be in the public domain in the US can still be copyrighted in other countries and vice versa. Thus a video that uses copyrighted material legally under the fair use doctrine may infringe the copyright in other countries and may have to be blocked by Youtube there.
Copyright arises automatically from the creation of a work, there’s no need to register the work at a copyright office, not even in the U.S. where that used to be the case some time ago.
In my opinion, the best way to avoid copyright problems is to make sure that you only use free material. U.S. Government agencies such as NASA, the U.S. National Park Service or the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service are one source for free material because works of U.S. Government agencies are generally not copyrighted.
Another good place to look for free images is Wikimedia Commons. Wikimedia projects like Wikipedia generally only use images that are either in the public domain or that have been put under free licenses such as Creative Commons. They have nice descriptions which include quick informations about the terms of the license under which the material can be used.
Finally, here is a nice article about free stuff on the internet and where to get it.
Thanks — the link in the last para is missing.
Oops, that should have been the final link:
http://www.h-online.com/open/Three-penguins-two-wiki-facts-and-a-free-partridge-recipe-part-1–/features/110135/0
Duh! Found the official YouTube mumbo-jumbo regarding Fair-Use.
Since that picture involves breakfast in bed, let me say that I prefer breakfast at a table (even in that picture, Marilyn doesn’t really look comfortable — she is on her toes!), and I think that a bed is only good for sleeping — including both the meanings of sleeping.
Thanks Marina.
I used thisimage, I thought you have used people in your videos before? Well, in the video I am about to make now, all the images are from that stock website, apart from a picture of a stamp, which I have just found is copyright. :oops: .
Here is a thought. You said that hotforwords is a copyright. So, does that mean everytime I make a video that has you in it I am breaching copyright?
i have a lot of sexy pics of me. you can use them with your videos or just keep them for personal use james. if you have an unusual request i’ll do one special for you.
:lol:
I see you took my tip about the tags… Have I seen this before? I remember the thing… how the random AAAH just comes up
AWW!
What know you?
If a bit lighter your hair was, uglier it would be. (-:
hmmm… A bit too odd for parity is perchance the above saying, it seems to me…
I liked it much better the first time around :roll: .
I still remember the firsts days of HotForWords, when there were no many people, and now you´re total famous Marina.Now, they even now your surname.Congratulations. :mrgreen:
Are Buzzword and aLx still out there?
yes and no. just once in a while.
you looking forward to oct 10th?
My cousins birthday?
soccer.
Hi Marina, great interview! I would like to request 2 words on the chance of you doing ar least one of them :)

Thank you, I love your videos, you go girl!!
Kayla
so I was mindless browsing you tube and stumbled across your channel, which has kept me laughing for a good hour so far.
anyways I am hoping you could try describing
[Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoc] which is a train station in wales :twisted:
here is a link to a site that may be of use

:mrgreen:
Shw mae Siggy,
Yn anffodus, dydy Marina yn rhoi’r hanes geiriau yn Gymraeg. Ond os hoffech chi mwy o wybodaeth ynglyn a Chymru a’r Gymraeg, yr ydych yn gallu gofyn imi. :grin:
Little known fact about said long name: the “t” in tysilio should mutate to a “d”, since tysilio modifies llan, a feminine noun. But anyone familiar with Welsh treigladau would know that! :razz: :mrgreen:
But you failed to noticed gogogoc instead of gogogoch
Sure, and he put a space before “ogogogoch,” and “Llanfair PG” is more than a train station, but let’s give the new guy a break, shall we? :smile:
Besides, I’m having fun being “Pretenticious {sic}” :razz:
That was a very good interview. :mrgreen:
Kudos to John for looking you right in the
eyes, the whole time! I don’t think many of
us could pass such a test if we were so close
to you, in person. I certainly know I would
fail… repeatedly – LOL!
(I know, I know – this comment is recycled, too!) :mrgreen:
Hey! :idea: If Marina recycles the “big O” lesson,
(after drinking a sh*tload of Neuro-gasm water),
she could finally break the 200,000,000 view
barrier! :grin:
I could only recycle half of my original comment.
Ahem…
“John Milton followed Marina’s advice (2m 27s), the HORNY LITTLE DEVIL. I love this film!”
Video editing made the rest obsolete. :grin:
Dear Marina,
You looked great on that show. Apparently, it’s a local program that isn’t shown in Northern California.
I plan to buy your book in August. Not that this should influence your selection of me as your lunch partner, but if things go well, I might even buy two copies of your book! :razz:
You’ve been so busy with trips to Utah, France, Las Vegas, pus photoshoots and trips to the Lakers games at Staples Center, you shouldn’t rushyour decision. I hope you will pick someone who will treat you decently, kindly, engage you in great conversation and humor, and who will provide you with all the warmth and affection you want. :!:
