    Wow! what a fantastic lesson.

    Awesome lesson.

    I’m not really sure what it’s called when Mer-people have sex, however, I know if they want to do it safely, they use a CODreceptive. Pfffff…

    Also, when three Mer-people get together and have sex it’s called a Ménage TU NÁ. Bwahaha…

    Ok, I’ll stop. :)

    This white snorkel looks as problematic as an origami subaquatic tube. I am not sure it can be fully trusted in the long term for the purpose it was designed for. I am not even sure if it’s fully functional actually. The goggles, though, seem to be in perfect working condition, top shape numero uno. As for mermaids and mermen, I would assume they DO have sex, in some way or another, for they reproduce and engender little mermen and mermaids. If they wouldn’t, they would be extinct by now, wouldn’t they?

    Mermaids were originally only female, like sirens. Originally their tails were split into two, thats how they did it. If you look at the original Starbucks logo, that shows what they were supposed to look like.

    Both sexes of the sea species are really big into fish. They make the most of their schnauze to accelerate well-prepared meals before mating. Marina, who shares a cognate with the sea species’ name has missed out on lots of adventure with mer-man, who was not let done easily. Better luck next time, Marina. :)

    When I got her, I thought I was lost. Nice new design, M. I thought this was funny:

    This Ad Was Posted to Craig’s List Personals:

    To the Guy Who Tried to Mug Me in Downtown Savannah night before last. Date: 05-27-09, 1:43 AM EST.

    I was the guy wearing the black Burberry jacket that you demanded that I hand over, shortly after you pulled the knife on my girlfriend, threatening our lives and me.

    You also asked for my girlfriend’s purse and earrings.

    I can only hope that you somehow come across this rather important message.

    First, I’d like to apologize for your embarrassment when I drew my pistol after you took my Jacket. The evening was not that cold, and I was wearing the jacket for a reason.

    My girlfriend had just bought me that Kimber Model 1911 .45 A CP pistol for my birthday, and we had picked up a shoulder holster for it that very evening.

    Obviously you agree that it is a very Intimidating weapon when pointed at your head wasn’t it?

    I know it probably wasn’t fun walking back to wherever you’d come from bare footed since I made you leave your shoes, cell phone, and wallet with me. [That prevented you from calling or running to your buddies to come help mug us again].

    After I called your mother, or “Momma”, as you had her listed in your cell, I explained the entire episode of what you’d done. Then I Went and filled up my gas tank as well as four other people’s in the gas station on your credit card. The guy with the big motor home took 150 gallons and was extremely grateful!

    I gave your shoes to a homeless guy outside Vinnie Van Go Go’s, along with all the cash in your wallet. [That made his day!]

    I then threw your wallet into the big pink “pimp mobile” that was parked at the curb … after I broke the windshield and side window and keyed the entire driver’s side of the car.

    Later, I called a bunch of phone sex numbers from your cell phone. Ma Bell just now shut down the line, although I only used the phone for a little over a day now, so what’s going on with that?

    Earlier, I managed to get in two threatening phone calls to the DA’s office and one to the FBI, while mentioning President Obama as my possible target. The FBI guy seemed really intense and we had a nice long chat (I guess while he traced your number etc.).

    In a way, perhaps I should apologize for not killing you… but I feel this type of retribution is a far more appropriate punishment for your threatened crime. I wish you well as you try to sort through some of these rather immediate pressing issues, and can only hope that you have the opportunity to reflect upon, and perhaps reconsider the career path you’ve chosen to pursue in life.

    Remember, next time you might not be so lucky.

    Have a good day!

    Thoughtfully yours,
    Alex

    P.S. Remember this motto.

  • http://captainjack.ws Captain Jack

    Trust me, Mermen have all the necessary parts needed to do the job right. Since they are mammals, they can be compared to the anatomy of a dolphin or whale. Lets use the example of a dolphin. A male dolphin has two slits: One slit contains the penis and the other contains the anus. Female dolphins have only one slit, which contains the vagina as well as the anus. Both sexual organs are located internally on a dolphin.

    Like most mammals, humans included, dolphins tend to express their sexual attraction by using their senses such as: rubbing, biting, etc.

    When a male is attracted to a female, they will use certain sounds such as: clicking, informing the female of his intentions. When the female, who has responded with either body language or vocal sounds, she will usually allow the male to approach her. Sometimes, she may even allow more than one male to court her and/or mate with her.

    The next step is touching each other. Both male and female rub each other’s body, especially on the slit, which covers the genitals, as well as on the dorsal fin. As they become more passionate, they tend to bite the fin, sometimes leaving scars or cuts. This kind of seduction ritual can last quite a long time.

    When the female is ready to mate, she will either swim on the surface of the water or swim on her side to allow the male to mate with her. This process is very brief as it lasts only a few seconds. As you can see, these marine mammals are capable of passion.

    Like I mentioned earlier, the female dolphin can accept the attentions and affection of more than one male at a time but it has also been witnessed that since males are quite aggressive when in the mood that they do not always mate with the consent of the female.

    If you ever have the opportunity to witness a mating ritual while being on a dolphin watching tour, you will be amazed by their displays of passion, tenderness and affection.

    Here is a video of a women swimming with an excited dolphin. I think she got more than she bargained for.

    Good example that shows corporations are not always right. I hear of this sort of thing more often than ever before. I would venture to say this is a classic case of The Peter Principle in full effect with larger companies. What’s really sad is people buy into what company claims without doing their homework to see if the company is accurate. I know many people say, “I don’t have time to research their claims.” Well when it comes to the food that you eat or liquids you drink, think of this. “How much is your life worth?”

    How many of you drink soda? Do you know the health risks that are associated with drinking soda? Have you heard that some states are thinking about taxing soda as many states now do with cigarette?

    Thats good to hear. :)

  • http://captainjack.ws Captain Jack

    Meaning:

    1) Disputed parentage of a child born aboard a ship was resolved by listing the newborn as a “son of the gun.”

    2) A rogue or scamp – “you are naughty, you old son of a gun”. Also used, although this is uncommon outside the USA, as a euphemism for ‘son of a bitch’. Some say that the origin is ‘son of a military man’. This explanation is disputed, but correct or not, the phrase is no longer used to convey that meaning.

    Origin:

    There is dispute amongst etymologists about the origin of this phrase. As always, disputes only occur where there is no definitive evidence so.

    The faintly derogative epithet “son of a gun” has been documented as part of the lexicon of the English language since 1708, but no one can really lay claim to knowing how it began or what the phrase originally signified. Numerous interesting back stories have emerged in the centuries since, and it’s possible one might even be the right one, but we no longer have any way of knowing.

    That’s all about I can find with my limited resources. Maybe Marina can tackle it better than I can. I find this phase very interesting for no one is able to make a determination of its origin at this time. Maybe someday I’ll go on a mission and sail around the world to make an attempt to find evidence of its origin. Now that I think about it, sounds like fun. Yeah, that really sound like fun. I’ll have to see if I can drag Marina out of her penthouse and take her on an investigating sailing trip. :-)

    :cool: A pig snorkels the food :-) [ Aphorism] and society
    In a number of cultures, such as Samuel Johnson’s England, many East and Southeast Asian societies, and throughout the world, the ability to spontaneously produce aphoristic sayings at exactly the right moment is a key determinant of social status.

    Many societies have traditional sages or culture heroes to whom aphorisms are commonly attributed, such as the Seven Sages of Greece, Confucius or King Solomon.

    Misquoted or misadvised aphorisms are frequently used as a source of humour; for instance, wordplays around aphorisms appear in the works of P. G. Wodehouse, Terry Pratchett and Douglas Adams (e.g. Zaphod Beeblebrox saying “Right now I need aphorisms like I need holes in my heads”). Aphorisms being misquoted by sports players, coaches and commentators forms the basis of Private Eye’s Colemanballs section.

    Mermen and Merwomen have relations throught thier toungue. Barbs attach themselves inside each merpersons throat and a Salival egg is formed between them in the passion of kissing. They Both expectorate the egg into a Khonk Shell and Leave it with the Giant Pearl Bearer Oy Ester. Seated at the thrown of Poseidon. He animates the egg into a new merperson. I think but then I could be all wrong.

    Sexual [][][]dimorphism[][][] is the systematic difference in form between individuals of different sex in the same speciesObvious differences between men and women include all the features related to reproductive role, notably the endocrine (hormonal) systems and their physiological and behavioural effects. Such undisputed sexual dimorphism include gonadal differentiation, internal genital differentiation, external genital differentiation, breast differentiation, muscle mass differentiation, and hair differentiation.

    Externally, the most sexually dimorphic portions of the body are the chest, the lower half of the face, and the entire area between the waist and the knees.

There will be a what is called a panic switch, that you hit to start the recording mode. It will also include the last 15 minutes of action. Why do this? Well lets say like the sail boom breaks you can hit the panic switch and it will save the last 15 minutes for DVD archiving. It also will work for security. Cool hu?

    Dear Marina,
    I knew a girl who worked as a mermaid at a marine park. She told me her “mermaid pants” were custom-made and they had zippers on the left and right sides which were covered by flaps. They were made of stretch fabric, and they would put them on, one leg at a time, because it took longer to put both legs in at once. She said it was like swimming with your legs tied together, but because the pants had large flippers, they could swim fast if they wanted to. They also had to wear a bra, by the way.
    They would stay underwater for up to a minute, and when they rose to the surface, they had to tilt their head back so they wouldn’t get wet hair across their face. They had a signal if a girl got tired or took in water, and the other girls were required to stop everything else to take the girl out of the water. She was a strong swimmer, with good shoulders and strong legs. She used the job to finish studies at the University and she got a land-based job, later.
    So to answer your homework question, this mermaid made love the same way you would! :razz:

    Nice snorkel. Real clean looking. Kinda short but size isn’t everything. I thought it was a real snorkel until I read one of the comments. Anyhow, it was a good idea. No sense buying a $45 snorkel in L.A.. The ocean water is cloudy. And then, afterwords, you’d have to do something with the snorkel. Put it in the closet? That’s a bad trend, which might become habit forming. Keeping every last thing because you might use it someday. My closets are packed with that stuff. Thus, a paper snorkel.

    mermaid sex is a myth conception.

  • http://captainjack.ws Captain Jack

    That sounds like an interesting job. Yet very hard work. I can’t imagine putting on that suit on everyday and then preforming.

    What is also interesting is the Monofins they used (assuming they did or both fins worked as one). Free divers that want to conserve energy will use a Monofin. The monofin swimmer extends arms forward, locking hands together, locking the head between the biceps. The undulating movement starts in the shoulders, with maximum amplitude towards the hips, the legs almost don’t bend to transfer the movement to the monofin. This technique is called the Dolphin Kick. By slowly oscillating the surface of the monofin when submerged, freedivers can generate large amounts of thrust even with small or slow movements. This preserves energy which helps with breathholding (apnea).

    Monofins were introduced in the USSR in 1972, by a Ukrainian finswimming club, and have been used for finswimming competitions since, allowing monofin swimmers to reach speeds of 12km/h.

    Now free divers don’t use a suit that ties their legs together but I wonder if it would improve performance as they slip through the water?

    So I see the mermaid outfit actually a good thing to use for it conserves energy over the course of the performance. I’ve even seen Olympic swimmers move through the water as if they had their legs tied together. Micheal Phelps I think has used this technique even. This is why I find your friends job interesting is the connection of something entertaining yet also very functional.

    I’ve seen mermaid dresses that had magnetic strips down the back with a flap that covered the split. Though they were not made for the water.

    Thanks for sharing your story about your friend. :-)

  • http://captainjack.ws Captain Jack

    I have that show on DVD. I know of the episode you talk about. Funny that Fry discovers that there is no sex involved and freaks out. It killed the relationship and he got out of there quick!

    I don’t think (if there where such a mythical creatures Mermaids & Mermen) they would reproduce in this way for I would guess they where mammals and not of some kind of fish species. Though I seen mermaids drawn as fish like an not mammal like.

    I say mythical, but we all have seen the birth defect of mermaid syndrome. HUmmmm maybe this is not so far fetched :shock:

    This is because when you are baling hay(square bales) and a wire breaks, it will fly around crazy. I don’t think anybody uses them anymore for this reason. They use twine. In fact, square bales are really only used for horse hay(alf-alfa, clover, etc.) anymore and cattle get those huge round bales which were always tied with twine. Hope this helps.

    I would like a GIRL MERMAID if I wanted one. Where would you fit in your weeenie. Maybe she gives good head! When I visited at the home of a friend or two who had a swimming pool when I was in grade school, I may have gotten a snorkel and goggles at KMart. You cannot do anything but skim on the surface of the water. My dad was not the best breadwinner and all my friends in grade school seemed to have more toys and things than I did. we had some weirdass man who drove the county wrecker and was always at home. I think he got that swimming pool liner that my dad bought for $50.00 when Kiddie City went out of business and I was a junior in high school and about to go into the army the next year. Reminding me that my dad paid $50.00 for a pool liner on a liquidation sale somehow qualifies him for FATHER OF THE YEAR???

    I forgot my earbuds, so I couldn’t hear the audio, but I pretty much got the idea of the lesson from the video alone.

    One thing your paper snorkle appears to lack is a check valve that closes when the end of the tube is submerged to keep the water out. A diesel-electric submarine’s snorkle has such a valve, and if they goof and get the tube below the water, it slams shut and the diesels suck in the air from the interior until they resurface, causing everyone’s ears too pop.

    Intelligent women enjoy sex more than ‘bimbos’

    research finds (Actual Study)
    Daily Telegraph ^ | 12 May 2009 | Daily Telegraph

    Posted on Tuesday, May 12, 2009 6:52:00 PM by GOPGuide

    Women with brains have more fun in bed than the average bimbo, new research suggests.

    A study of more than 2,000 female twins showed that those with greater emotional intelligence had larger numbers of orgasms.

    Emotional intelligence (EI) is the ability to monitor and manage feelings and emotions in oneself and others.

    The findings suggest that low EI is a risk factor for female orgasmic disorder, one of the most common sexual problems suffered by women.

    Up to 30 per cent of women find it difficult or impossible to reach a climax during sexual intercourse.

My understanding is that the word race can refer to both physical attributes as well as cultural attributes such as language and common traditions.

    I can’t actually find the comments I am looking for but to sum up they basically say that people are finding your videos less stimulating. I think the lowest point for you was “jump” where you pretty much said “jump with me” “jump is onomatopoeitc” FIN

    Now, I am not having a go at you, I just feel that all the effort you put into things not related to the actual word origin distract from what you are on youtube to do…. teach.

    The history of the word is still there but is harder to find because it is buried under unrelated things.

Then YT changed again and I was told to try to appeal to 12 year olds in order to appear on popular, because you will not appear on popular unless your video is favorited a ton, commented a ton of times and rated like crazy, so I tried to appeal to 12 year olds, but I am not digging it. Just watch a SHAYTARDS video or a CTFxC video to see what appeals to young kids.. and I really can’t do videos like that, it’s not my style. It works for them but won’t work for me.

    [cogent] [articulate]

  • James

    That’s good to hear Marina, I thought the idea was you had to be 13 because you are not allowed to track browsing habits of people under that age.. thats me being [pedantic] (anything to do with pendant?)

    I guess that explained the fred phase you went through. I would never take the advice of youtube, they would just try to ride off my own success in the long run.

    Also I think that YouTube saying what it did never had any effect, how many 12 year olds do they think write

    ” I just turn the volume down and stare at your tits”

    You are the only philologist on YouTube. So even if YouTube said you should start making videos trying to appeal to 110 year olds you would still get the same comments.

    I feel that when you were showing your intelligence was when you were most appealing to everybody.

    I can’t wait for some new stuff.

    You have 260k subscribers, you don’t need to be told what to do by YouTube, thats like the government telling the Queen what to wear; sure she could wear a pink outfit but she is the Queen, it doesn’t matter what colour dress she wears, people will still come to see her!

    Testing 5 levels deep

  • James

    HACKER!

  • http://twitter.com/HotforThai Bob

    I’m delighted to hear that you are going back to your original concept.
    I was never convinced that “dumbing down” was the thing to do – it’s diametrically opposed to what you set out to do when you started your videos.
    What puzzles me is why YouTube wants you to appeal to 12 year-olds. If their revenue comes from advertising, then 12 year-old kids are surely not going to attract advertisers – they have no income and therefore no spending power. :???:

  • Rijk
  • Rijk

    So this is what [ burning with desire ] means :mrgreen:

  • http://www.hotforwords.com HotForWords

    OK.. do I go 5 levels deep on the comments and bring the margin to the left to make room.. as I have done now… which results in the comments area looking more cluttered?

    Or do I go with 4 levels deep and the sub-comments being pushed to the right more as they were earlier today looking less cluttered?

  • http://www.hotforwords.com HotForWords

    This is level 2

  • http://www.hotforwords.com HotForWords

    Level 3

    5 level with push to left better. I do not see the clutter. Also, in the previous scheme, the images looked too big (as though wasting space); with the push to left, the same sized images look appropriate.

  • Rijk

    No 5 deep, now the old posts are back, otherwise some of the reactions don’t make sense

  • http://twitter.com/HotforThai Bob

    Further to my comment about dumbing down, if intelligence is sexy (and here’s the proof ;-) ) then what is “un-intelligence”?
    (What IS the opposite of intelligence?)

  • Rijk

    \o/
    hmmm that one is not in there :smile:

  • http://www.GoForThisWorld.com Hs4Mm

    1) Bob’s reply below make me want to amend the purpose stated earlier (by adding “in a manner that demonstrates that intelligence is indeed sexy”): “… or is the primary purpose the communication of word-origins in a manner that demonstrates that intelligence is indeed sexy with comedy/entertainment/whatever-else being there but only as secondary enhancements to the primary purpose of communicating word-origin?

    2) Was the “screamer” twitter-picture based on the same advice? You once tweeted to VP the proper thing to do with advice from her manager (her manager was telling her that doing a video on 8-mom would make her lose her audience or some such stupid thing); advice from YT is similar.

  • http://www.GoForThisWorld.com Hs4Mm

    Thanks — I amended the purpose by adding “in a manner that demonstrates that intelligence is indeed sexy” — see comment number what?)

  • http://www.GoForThisWorld.com Hs4Mm

    By the way, if comment numbers are missing because they clutter the view, how about making them invisible by being the exact same as the background color? Even though they are invisible, I think one can still see them by dragging the mouse over them and highlighting them; one cannot highlight a background area — but if the area has text in the same color as the background then one can highlight it and see the text — I am fairly certain of this.

  • http://wired.reddit.com/sexygeeks_2008/?s=top pedanticKarl

    Rijk,
    You said; “Form follows function”

    Are you so sure about that? And what does it really mean? Many people would disagree with that cliché on many levels.

    Take a look at this article.

  • Rijk

    It means your design is a true reflection of the activities that it houses.

    ps. If its lack of space, you could lose the white lining around the gravatars.

  • http://www.GoForThisWorld.com Hs4Mm

    Also: what kind of kids do you want to attract? The mindless ones can’t really value anything. The ones with any intelligence left (after public education etc.) can only be attracted by intelligent videos.

    More generally, what kind of audience do you want to attract primarily? The intelligent ones, right? Such ones would be repulsed by display of mindlessness.

  • Rijk

    if you move your mouse over the date of the comment, you can still see the number ;)

  • http://wired.reddit.com/sexygeeks_2008/?s=top pedanticKarl

    Hey Bob,
    Did you notice that the article made a grave error or they are playing bait and switch. The title uses the word “Intelligent” by itself and right below it they say, “Women with brains have more fun in bed …”, yet, in the rest of the article all of the words “intelligence” are preceded by the word “Emotional”, as in “Emotional intelligence”.

    Studies have shown that there is little or no correlation between IQ and emotional intelligence. Not all people with a high emotional quotient have a high IQ and vice versa.

    The opposite of intelligence is stupid. :smile:

  • http://twitter.com/HotforThai Bob

    5 levels looks fine to me, as do all the features of the modified site.
    There is plenty of white space in the design as it is now with 5 levels – any more and we’ll all be going snow-blind. :grin:

  • Rijk

    we have the exact same word. ;-)

  • Rijk
  • Rijk

    good comment :smile:
    This gives her something to think about.

  • http://twitter.com/HotforThai Bob

    Yes, I noticed that they singled out emotional intelligence; maybe a sexist prejudice that women are emotional and men are not. There are many different intelligences as Tony Buzan points out in his book “Buzan’s Book of Genius” (ISBN 0 09 178551 0) where he talks of verbal, Numerical/Logical, Engineering/Spatial, Sensual, Bodily/Kinaesthetic, Creative, InTRA-personal, InTER-personal and Spiritual intelligences, as well as an overall Genius Quotient.
    IQ tests only test the verbal and numerical intelligences whereas the pilot aptitude tests I underwent to get into the Navy also tested the Engineering/Spatial, Bodily/Kinaesthetic and InTER-personal ones.
    I disagree that stupid is the opposite of intelligent – the two are unfortunately not mutually exclusive, intelligent people are as often doing stupid things as those not so intelligent. The thing is, intelligent people learn from their mistakes.
    I have, after a little pondering, come up with a new nerd-word for the opposite of intelligent – it is “dumbinance”. :grin:

    I have a request! What is the origin of the word “request”?

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/capman911 Capman911

    I like the 4 deep as it doesn’t look so cluttered. Remember we tried 5 before and the TA’s could go more than that and the words were to small or run off of the page. Some replies you couldn’t even read. We can always refer back to a certain comment by using the comment links in our message to the commenter.

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/capman911 Capman911

    At one time there were numbers barely visible to the eye on the right side of all of the comments. It started out like 1, then if someone replied to you it would go to 1.1 and 1.2 and so on this was all in the same thread. So you could refer back to comment 1.2 and knew where to go look for the comment the person was referring to. If you started a new thread it would go to 2.0 then 2.1 then 2.3. and so on. You could mouse over them and they would become visible.

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/capman911 Capman911

    It is easier to follow the site this way because the comments are fairly close together unlike Twitter where if you make a comment and a reply to that comment may be 5 or 6 comments if not more away from your original comment instead of close together.

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/capman911 Capman911

    I agree with those who would like to see you ignore the YT suggestions about “dumbing down” your work. Any elaboration by me would be redundant. YT advising you on your lessons is like Decca discounting the Beatles and the guitar’s impact on popular music.

    what is the song you use in most of your videos???
    it is kind of a theme song?

  • http://www.GoForThisWorld.com Hs4Mm

    In thinking about Twitter, you used Twitter’s tag line “What are you doing?” and the way the creators of Twitter use Twitter to argue how one should use Twitter. Captain Jack replied by saying that neither the tag line nor the method of usage by the creators imposes any requirement on how others may use twitter. You then thanked him (this is in the Forum).

    In the context of YouTube, did you interpret “the advice” of YouTube as a requirement that you must follow? I also remember a comment in which you wrote something like “they want me to make videos 10 seconds long” (this comment was in the first 1 minute lesson you made this year, perhaps around the time of the horse racing video).

    When a business makes a remark, do you view that as a requirement for you to follow … with a threat of “or else”? Although the car, banking, health care, and building industry is currently run by Mr. BO, other business have not yet been filled by government bureaucrats. Suggestions/advice from Twitter and YouTube are not being made by government bureaucrats backed up with guns … at least no yet.

    Seems to me you have done very well being you – with 48 of your 492 vids topping 1 Million views. 260K subs, lots of Press, and a published book.

    You’ve created something very unique and special with your work – tweeks and improvements are one thing, ‘dumbing down’ things significantly to appeal to 12 year olds just puts you in competition for a dumb audience.

    I say do what you do best – you Educate in an entertaining way – and that has taken you this far!

    I think of it this way – if you made vids for 12 year olds – you could have written a Comic Book and been promoting it on Nickelodeon or the Disney Channel or something rather than the much more substantive audiences you’ve been reaching recently.

    Bob makes the point above about advertisers and 12 year olds. YouTube has been changing – but if you change significantly with every one of their ill-advised and fleeting experiments you’ll NEVER be on a solid footing.

    I can’t believe YouTube will hold onto a business model that favors 12-year-old’s programming to the detriment of the rest of the world population. If that were a winner – all we would have on Cable and Broadcast TV and Film would be 500 Disney Channels.

    My opinion and prediction is that they will change several more times before they settle in to a more stable way of operating that will allow them to actually be profitable.

    In the meantime I’m seeing you doing the hard work of building a solid following brick by brick, expanding your horizons with TV appearances, Magazines, Radio, Book published, etc. Now when those folks take the time to come and check you out – as I did – and see that quality of work you’ve shown over and over – I’ve gotta believe you can do nothing but prosper.

    That solid base of quality work that YOU are proud of is what people will be viewing (and ringing your cash register) for years to come.

    PK has been generous enough to clue me in on how important popular and most viewed have been to vid views, and other quirks of the YT system. And however they do it now and in the future, I don’t think you can go wrong with interesting and well crafted origins that people want to watch once they find them.

    The WORST thing that could happen is if YOU lose interest in what you do – I know we’d all hate that (even Alex).

    One last point:

    I know of several other YouTubers who got going or started outside of YouTube and are now a presence there.

    I think it was something i heard YOU say in regards to your book – but aren’t you the FIRST YouTuber to start there and begin to move beyond YT – with a book at least?

    Being one of only 6 GoDaddy Girls – and as I heard Dr. Bob Parsons say, the first INTERNATIONAL GoDaddy spokesperson – is certainly another [Feather in your Cap] (or headband) ;-)

    LOL, I read that article a few days ago. I thought it was stupid play on words. Like PK said, it’s was a bait and switch. Emotional Intelligence is the same as mental intelligence. People like this should not be in a position to write stories for a major online company that makes a lame attempt at deceiving people. These type of writers are just there to write something stupid just so can can pick up their paycheck at the end of the week and go get drunk.

  • http://captainjack.ws Captain Jack

    Regarding your Twitter comment about how a company suggest how you should use Twitter. Read this:
    “I think there is a world market for about five computers” — Remark attributed to Thomas J. Watson (Chairman of the Board of International Business Machines)
    With the invention of Mainframe computers with CRT terminals to access them. IBM believed that there would be no need for personal computers. Every one could purchase a inexpensive terminal to access the power of a Mainframe computer. Steve Jobs and Steven Woz didn’t agree with that statement. Hence the formation of Apple computers. What is kind of ironic is that with ‘Cloud computing’ we are sort of leaning back to that system.

    Marina tends to believe that large companies know best for the fact that they are a large successful company must be doing something right. She mentioned this somewhere on the website/forums I think, or maybe in an email.

    If the people of the Untied States think that the government runs the country then they have been brain washed well. It’s part of the capitalist system that indirectly controls the country.

    A few days ago I was having some work done at my local garage. A blonde came in and asked for a seven-hundred- ten.
    We all looked at each other and another customer asked, ‘What is a seven-hundred- ten?’
    She replied, ‘You know, the little piece in the middle of the engine, I have lost it and need a new one..’
    She replied that she did not know exactly what it was, but this piece had always been there..
    The mechanic gave her a piece of paper and a pen and asked her to draw what the piece looked like.
    She drew a circle and in the middle of it wrote 710. He then took her over to a car just like hers which had its hood up and asked ‘is there a 710 on this car?’
    She pointed and said, ‘Of course, its right there.’

    What an excellent, excellent word to request the origin of. Kudos to your friend David for thinking up such a clever word request!

    I am a little surprised that snorkel is a relatively new word to the language. It seems to have started around World War 2, but maybe it was more like World War 1. Truly an odd word, especially when you consider it has a German origin but became popular due to a Frenchman!

    This lesson totally reminded me of the novelty song ‘Wet Dream’ by Kip Adotta. If you haven’t heard that song yet, you’ve got to check out, Marina! I’m betting you’ll get a big kick out of the very clever word use in the song. Here’s a link to it’s video on YouTube:

  • errin

    I just had to put up the lyrics to ‘Wet Dream’ after mentioning it:

    It was April the forty-first
    Being a quadruple leap year
    I was driving in downtown Atlantis
    My barracuda was in the shop
    So I was in a rented stingray
    And it was overheating

    So I pulled into a Shell Station
    They said I’d blown a seal
    I said, “Fix the damn thing
    And leave my private life out of it
    Okay pal?”

    While they were doing that
    I walked over to a place called the Oyster Bar, a real dive
    But I knew the owner
    He used to play for the Dolphins
    I said “Hi Gil”
    You have to yell, he’s hard of herring

    Think I had a wet dream
    Cruisin’ thru the Gulf Stream
    Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
    Wet dream

    Gil was also down on his luck
    Fact is he was barely keeping his head below water
    I bellied up to the sandbar
    He poured me the usual

    Rusty snail, hold the grunion
    Shaken not stirred
    With a peanut butter and jellyfish sandwich on the side
    Heavy on the mako

    I slipped him a fin
    On porpoise
    I was feeling good
    I even dropped a sand dollar in the box for Jerry’s squids
    For the halibut

    Well the place was crowded
    We were packed in like sardines They were all there to listen to the big band sounds of Tommy Dorsal
    What sole

    Tommy was rockin’ the place with a very popular tuna
    Salmon Chanted Evening
    And the stage was surrounded by screaming groupers
    Probably there to see the bass player

    One of them was this cute little yellowtail
    And she’s giving me the eye
    So I figured this is my chance for a little fun
    You know, piece of Pisces

    But she said things I just couldn’t fathom
    She was too deep, seemed to be under a lot of pressure
    Boy, could she drink
    She drank like a . . .
    She drank a lot

    I said “What’s your sign”
    She said “Aquarium”
    I said “Great, let’s get tanked”

    Think I had a wet dream
    Cruisin’ thru the Gulf Stream
    Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
    Wet dream

    I invited her to my place for a midnight bait
    I said “Come on baby, it’ll only take a few minnows”
    She threw me that same old line
    “Not tonight, I gotta haddock”

    And she wasn’t kidding either
    Cause in came the biggest, meanest looking haddock
    I’d ever seen come down the pike
    He was covered with mussels

    He came over to me and said
    “Listen, shrimp, don’t you come trollin’ around here”
    What a crab
    This guy was steamed
    I could see the anchor in his eyes

    I turned to him, I said
    “A-balone, you’re just being shellfish”
    Well, I knew it was going to be trouble and so did Gil
    �Cause he was already on the phone to the cods

    The haddock hits me with a sucker punch
    I catch him with a left hook
    He eels over
    It was a fluke but there he was
    Lying on the deck, flat as a mackerel
    Kelpless

    I said “Forget the cods Gil
    This guy’s gonna need a sturgeon”
    Well, the yellowtail was impressed with the way I landed her boyfriend
    She came over to me, she said
    “Hey, big boy, you’re really a game fish
    What’s your name”
    I said “Marlin”

    Think I had a wet dream
    Cruisin’ thru the Gulf Stream
    Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
    Wet dream

    Well, from then on we had a whale of a time
    I took her to dinner, I took her to dance
    I bought her a bouquet of flounders
    And then I went home with her
    And what did I get for my trouble
    A case of the clams

    Think I had a wet dream
    Cruisin’ thru the Gulf Stream
    Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh

    Wet dream
    Cruisin’ thru the Gulf Stream
    Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh

    Wet dream
    Cruisin’ thru the Gulf Stream
    Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
