Come meet me in New York!

borders-290Hey guys! I’m going to be in New York on the 19th of August for a get-together at Borders in Manhattan from 7pm-8:30pm and then perhaps moving elsewhere nearby for a drink!

If you live in the New York area, come by and see me! I’ll be signing my book that comes out that day, as well as reading a couple passages from it… and just hanging out!

The Comic Con meet-up was so much fun (I’ll be uploading a video on that shortly).. I think we can have as much fun in New York, if not more… but we won’t be able to UNLESS YOU ARE THERE!!!

Come to Borders at 10 Columbus Circle New York, NY on the second floor of the Time Warner Center at 7pm-8:30pm, Wednesday, August 19.

    So when are you coming to Seattle? :|

  • http://captainjack.ws Captain Jack

    I must figure out a way to get over the fear of flying in a jumbo jet. I’m not afraid of flying per say. I love flying in small airplanes. I have even have about 30 hours on the books. It’s just jumbo jet over pressurize the cabins which makes me very sick. I get extreme headaches and my nose starts to run. It takes me about two days to recover. I thought I would get use to it but it just kept getting worse. I would rather get sea sick and puke over the side than to fly in a pressurized jet.

    I’m rather sensitive to pressure changes. I can feel the exact moment they flip the switch to pressurize the cabin. I can even sense normal pressure levels. LOL I just guessed it was about 1012 mb and it was 1018.10 mb. I’m off about 6 mb. Wow, I still can guess rather well.

    So anyone have some idea how I can over come this??? :sad:

  • http://twitter.com/HotforThai Bob

    Have you tried scuba diving? After the pressure changes you would experience doing that, flying in airliners might seem insignificant.

  • frameshiftproductions

    I guess you don’t wanna come to metro detroit, michigan. Do you? :cry:

  • http://captainjack.ws Captain Jack

    I did a little bit of scuba a swimming pool. Only in a lap pool of about 6 feet. I used to free dive down to 16 feet. I couldn’t do it anymore for I would have great pain in my ear drums. I use to dive a lot as a kid. Heck I would stay under until I nearly passed out.

    You know, maybe this is something I can teach my body to learn. It’s about 40 feet under my boat. I should get my fins and free dive down to about 20 feet or until the pain starts. If I do this once a day I think I might be able to reprogram my mind to ignore the pain. I wonder if there is anything I should be watching to prevent any damage?

    Chances are slim of anything bad happening on a plane. They are safer than being in a car. So just go for it! ;-)

    I’m planning to visit and do some work at the International Space Station. Would you be willing to do a book signing there? :mrgreen:

  • http://captainjack.ws Captain Jack

    I was not talking about air safety. I’m not afraid of flying. I know flying is many times safer than driving or even walking on a sidewalk for that matter.

    Please re-read my comment above. ;-)

    Ok, how bout yoga, or a pill to relax. Seems your just tense and that can effect a great many things. Ah hypnosis? I have heard that works too. Well, for those people who can be hypnotized..I am not one of them however.

  • http://twitter.com/HotforThai Bob

    My best advice is to seek advice from a professional.
    Talk to diving instructors and talk to a Medical Practitioner specialising in Diving and Hyperbaric Medicine.
    Here is a couple of web sites in the UK that you might find useful:-
    http://www.sdm.scot.nhs.uk/
    http://www.londondivingchamber.co.uk/index.php?id=advice
    I’m sure there will be similar ones in the States and Canada.
    Also you can Google for “diving medical practitioners Seattle”.

    Wow! Think of the pressure changes on that trip. :grin:

  • http://captainjack.ws Captain Jack

    I just remembered I walked passed a diving school on my way to my car. My friend Kyle took his NAUI cert there. I can ask them. Damn that’s something else I need to get cert in. Will it ever end?

    I think the issue with jumbo jets is their inability to maintain a lower pressure. I wonder what the airline keep the pressure at.

    I have heard that with certain ummm implants the higher you go up in an airplane the larger they will become. If you get into space where there is no atmosphere and zero gravity will “they” burst or just fill up the cabin.

    Hmmm. I am sorely tempted to fly out to New York City to attend the event (as I fly around for free), but all my friends who used to live in New York City have since relocated out here to L.A.. Besides, I’m sure I’ll meet you in person in due time… :grin:

    I bet you’ll have a blast in the big city, Marina. Maybe you can even do a lesson on why New York City is called [The Big Apple]. I’ll be there in spirit, or at least via Twitter!

    If your having pain in your ears the Eustachian tubes running from your ears to your throat are not clearing fast enough or they may be clogged. The reason for the pain is the pressure of the depth of the water is not equalizing in the inner ear and is trapping the pressure in the inner ear. I have a divers license and they taught us to swallow while you are descending or hold your nose with two finders and gently blow with your nose to try and clear the Eustachian tubes. If you don’t clear them and the pain gets to bad it could rupture your ear drums. It will be tough to blow your nose with two fingers if you have a mask that covers the nose. Some of the newer masks have where the nose cover is separate but attached to the mask for such an operation like blowing the nose is possible without removing the mask under water. If you have a scuba out fit then blowing the nose would ok as you could take off the mask and try to relieve the pressure then put the mask back on and tilt your head up and press in on the bottom of the mask and blow air out through the nose filling the mask back up with air as it forces the water out of the top of the mask. It is fun to scuba dive if you can get by the obstacles such as the ear pain. And of course sharks.

  • greatestpotential

    19th of August mark that date down on your HotForWords calenders as the official release date of Marina Orlova’s brand spanking new book :!: Come on people, plz raise it up a notch ~ applause :!:

  • http://captainjack.ws Captain Jack

    You know you made me remember something. When I was working on getting my private airplane license, Kim my instructor told me to try chewing gum to help with the small pressure changes. That could be the reason I have issues with the jumbo jets. I’m not treating pressurized cabins as if like they were changes in altitude. I need to get the Eustachian tubes cleared. Thanks Mike!

    Speaking of Kim. That gal was hot! Which was very distracting when I was flying. The other male students also had issue. Kim never had any problem getting students to sign up for her classes. Last I heard she had plenty of hours on the book to get a job at Horizon airlines which is owned by Alaskan airlines. Funny thing about Kim. She had a fear of heights. She would get up on a small ladder and would get scared. We would have to hold the ladder and talk her down. I was amazed a pilot with a fear of heights. She told me you just need to keep busy with landing procedures when you’re landing and next thing you’re on the ground. It worked for me also. Yeah I have a fear respect for heights.

    I have no fear of sharks what so ever. I’ve even petted them before. Maybe someday I’ll go swim with them. In the PNW we have a shark called 6 gill. I just learned yesterday that they can eat from the bottom of the ocean. They suck up sand and filter out little hummm I forgot. Sand shrimp, right? No, something else.

    I want to thank everyone for their input on helping me explore some options on how to over come this issue with pressurized jets. I might have to try flying again. It would sure shorten those long road/train/bus trips. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

    Yea I have noticed that. I don’t sleep in the same bed with my wife either. When my daughter moved out I moved into her bedroom. It wasn’t because of love I just got used to 33 years of sleeping at the fire station by my self that if I slept with my wife any movement would wake me up. Plus she didn’t like my C-Pap machine. She said it sounded like a weed eater running at night if my mask got a little crooked and let the pressurized air escape. Oh well it sucks being me too. :lol: :lol:

    Hey Capt’n J, did you ever try to insert fresh cut carrots into your Eustachian tubes? I am told here that it is a very good gran’ma recipe against height sickness. Well I say you try it next time you board a boeing and you let us know by posting here if it works or not.

    If carrots don’t work, you may also try a pair of giant Alaska shrimps. Alaskan natives say it works even better than carrots.

    Maybe everyone(theres that word again) doesn’t feel the same way you do? :???: :sad:

    Ever heard of Woodstock? Here is a song from Sly & the Family Stone.

    Different strokes, different folks ;-)

    I expected this to be the longest thread ever but instead it’s the shortest.

    Is that what she said? :mrgreen:

    Oh well. Guess I’ll just have to stroke it myself then. :lol:

    Different Strokes, Different Folks: But are we straying away from “We got to live together”? :???: ;-)

    Sly And The Family Stone
    Everyday People lyrics

    Songwriters: Stewart, Sylvester

    Sometimes I’m right, but I can be wrong
    My own beliefs are in my song
    The butcher, the baker, the drummer and then
    Makes no difference what group I’m in

    I am everyday people
    Yeah, yeah

    There is a blue one who can’t accept the green one
    For living with a fat one trying to be a skinny one
    Different strokes for different folks
    And so on, and so on and scooby-dooby-doo

    Ooh, sha, sha
    We got to live together

    I am no better, and neither are you
    We are the same, whatever we do
    You love me, you hate me, you know me and then
    You can’t figure out the bag I’m in

    I am everyday people
    Yeah, yeah

    There is a long hair that doesn’t like the short hair
    For being such a rich one that will not help the poor one
    Different strokes for different folks
    And so on and so on and scooby-dooby-doo

    Ooh, sha, sha
    We got to live together

    There is a yellow one that won’t accept the black one
    That won’t accept the red one that won’t accept the white one
    Different strokes for different folks
    And so on, and so on and scooby-dooby-doo

    Ooh, sha, sha
    I am everyday people

    Its all tied in together, my man. I was looking for “Hot fun in the Summertime” because my AC is broke and it is now 90 in here. Whatever :cool: :mrgreen:
    Hey, you think my AC conking out is a direct result of my thoughtless and hurtful humour that I still don’t remember saying/typing? :twisted:

    Instant karma gonna get you,
    gonna knock you right in the head ;-)

    What a week upcoming for our favorite Teacher!

    The official release of her FIRST Book is a huge milestone by itself – now a published Author under a major Publishing House. Credibility anyone?

    3 National Television appearances – and at least O’Reilly is international.

    4 National Radio interviews.

    A personal appearance, discussion and Book Signing at Borders’ Flagship Store on Columbus Circle in New York City. With a Billboard on the Store yet!

    …and just recently named as the latest GoDaddy Girl – also National exposure.

    I think all of us might feel a little ‘stressure’ in the circumstance, but Marina is well prepared for this next level boost to her career in my opinion.

    She’s done her Homework, [paid her dues] with 477 vids and over 227 Million views on YT, [cut her teeth] in numerous print and media interviews, and [gotten her feet wet] with a prelim signing and meet at ComicCon.

    I for one will be watching with a beaming smile as she carries the week with her usual Style and Grace!

    Marina, we are ALL behind you! :grin: :grin: :grin:

    (I dare ya to disagree Alex! ;-) :smile: )

    I’m gonna mark my HotforWords Calendar for August 2009 as the month Marina really started emerging into the mainstream as a recognized Talent.

    Hey GP, did you mean: August 18th

    From Amazon:
    This title will be released on August 18, 2009.

    From the Harper Collins site:
    On Sale: 8/18/2009

    Book signing in NYC: August 19th

  • greatestpotential

    Hi Karl

    I noticed a discrepancy in regards to the book release date so I put down August 19th in accordance with what was texted in by Marina above.

    I’m glad you got that worked out and corrected on the dates.

    Thanks Karl :!:

    I appreciate her, even when she’s doing commercials for her merchandise. Guess she’s got to make the payments on the Maserati.

  • stigmatasaurus

    Would you come to Sacramento to do a photo op with Ahnold? I know it’s one of the few things at this point that would boost his popularity.

    What do you mean? I’ve made over 450 videos for you guys for free!

    Then I spent a year writing a book and during the few weeks leading up to its release I try to let as many people know about it and you yell at me saying that the “only time you here[sic] from” me is when I’m trying to sell you something?

    Thanks a lot! ;-)

    We all love you, I think. :razz:

    know yelling ;-) night to tea-cher

  • beevee14

    Hello, leonard and welcome to “The comment that wouldn’t die :!: ”

    Remember, ‘Mob Rules’ Isn’t just an album by Black Sabbath. I’ve seen it happen with regrettable consequences so keep’em away from me with the torches.

    :sad: Somebody* needs a hug! :sad:

    :smile: Yes, hugs are good :smile:

    *Yes, b is included#(and bee) :mrgreen:

  • beevee14

    Yes, I’ve always had a knack for stirrin’ things up. Maybe I should go into politics. Lets see, is there a real hot-button issue in politics that is really getting people all worked up right now :???: :?:
    Ummm, I can’t think of one either :!: :mrgreen: Guess I’ll stay right here and provide thoughtful, caring comments :twisted:

    EXAMPLE: There are alot of nice marinas around here with beautiful boats, but there is NO Marina as nice and beautiful as M :smile:

    Hows that :?:

    Marina is the Blond and we are the snowman ;)

    oops, meant as comment on the Harley ride

  • rijk

    Discovered this one just to late to join in. But I got a lot of info of this one,
    Think this coffers most of it. You guys figure out your own truth ;)

  • seesixcm6

    Dear Marina,
    Good luck and travel well on your big trip East! You’ll do extremely well in all those TV and radio interviews, and I hope the book signings are great fun!
    Be careful of people with strange accents. A California writer went to London and heard this woman say what he thought was her name: “Emma Chisit.” Later, he found out she actually was asking how much the book cost! :razz:

    Unfortunately, I can’t make it now. My piano lesson for tomorrow at 7PM was moved to Wednesday at the same time. :sad:
    But I hope that those who are going have a great time. :smile:

  • beevee14

    Well, that was fun wasn’t it? Who can we pick on next? :twisted:

    Not mine like that… It was part of a large collection of prized Soviet Awards and a full set of WWII battle campaign medals I assembled during my many Sojurns to Russia.
    I sold it to a Dealer in Briton Beach during hard times He claims that he never recieved it and demanded reimbursment. Funny how when I had approached him he scofed at the price I placed on the collection and said there was no profit for him. I sold 4 pieces independantly for more than I asked from him It was then when he approaches me says he is a Collector wants to buy more, but his email was that of the dealer I had approached he was using 2 names on ebay portarying himself on one as a collector and the other as a dealer. It was when I kidded him about it that he claimed he never recieved the article…. Cest La Vie! :cry:

    Oh I missed your comment. I didn’t get a email notification of your comment. I came across it by accident as I was doing a search for something unrelated. I’m in Seattle now. I moved from Kirkland to Seattle. This week is open accept for Tuesday and Thursday. I have a TV appearance on Tuesday and on Thursday I have reserved for errands and farmers market. Also I am not a morning person. I do drink coffee and tea anytime of the day or night. Well not at midnight for I go to bed around 5 or 6 am. So set up a time and day so we can meet up. :-)

    Sorry pal but if there is to be any bike rides it’s on the Green Machine first. :razz: :lol:

  • neuroway

    Capman, if there’s one thing you can’t control in this life, it’s which girl rides which machine. If there is to be some order in this world, the green girl goes on the green machine. The white girl goes on the white one. The black girl goes on the black machine. The red one on the red, the yellow on the yellow, etc… etc… etc… Figuratively speaking of course. Unless you are colour blind, you don’t want to mix that stuff up. Not your call. Out of your control. Unfortunately (or fortunately) neither you or I are the ones who control that.
