    First

  • Lennie

    Hey a fact I didn’t know yet: an extra on Ocean’s Thirteen ? I think I have to take a look at the movie again to see if I can spot Marina.

  • pat haskett

    Another Good One!

    AND it’s Bloomberg – a financial site.

    Very Cool on the variety of media demos/audiences you are getting exposure from! :grin:

  • Lennie

    Their is a video as wel, about when she was at borders

    Was that why you were asking how we’d spend a million dollars in a day?

  • heaven here i come

    That bit caught my eye too! I saw the film before I new about “Hot For Words” Marina, or else I would have looked out for her beautiful and distinctive face. Great article, full of well-deserved [plaudits]. I like the soubriquet “linguist with lingerie”; it fits in well with your strapline “Intelligence is sexy” Keep up the good work and make mega-bucks, Marina! And don’t forget to come to England – I’m sure I’m not your only fan here!

  • Lennie

    On the issue of Wikipedia as source of facts, Wikipedia is useful but you should definitely confirm by finding other sources.

    Good article. I hope Mr. Druckers wife doesn’t see it or he might have a little splainin’ to do! :twisted:

    Wife: ‘You son of a bitch, you offer her caviar and champagne and all I get is wine in a BOX!!’ :shock: :???:

  • beevee14

    I was wondering that, too…

  • http://www.hotforwords.com HotForWords

    No.. I just thought that it would be an interesting question! :-)

  • http://www.hotforwords.com HotForWords

    I’m in the film for literally a fraction of a second when the building is blowing up or something.. and I run by the camera a couple times.. I’ll try to find the screen-shots.. it would be funny to put them up!

    Marina, I enjoyed reading the article. That article has been picked up by other news sources as well. Here are the two other sources I found.

    The Times of India

    Hungarian Hirszerzo web site (Hungarian)

    yeah B.B. :lol: great press I think the reporter liked me :oops:
    she saw the stars in my eyes for our Teacher :shock:
    Marina you never did answer me about dinner :roll:
    maybe next time you visit the Big Apple :lol: :cool:

  • Lennie

    Ohh, their are so many extra’s in those scenes, I haven’t spotted you yet.

    I do have an excuse the movie hasn’t completely downloaded yet. ;-)

    Not something I usually do, but I don’t own this movie. Also I’m not really watching it anyway, it’s just ‘research’.

  • BigBhd95

    :lol: Hi beevee14 yep it went somethin like that :roll: just a short
    while ago :oops: :lol: after all this time I cant do much to shake
    her up anymore :shock: BUT I keep tryin :mrgreen: B.B. :cool:
    P.S. I did tell her I was going stupid i’m not

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

    Hey BigBhd95,
    Is that pic of you leaning up against the HD that you uploaded?
    Can I post the pic?

  • http://favrd.textism.com/person/chevolay Che Volay

    I remember you saying something about that and you went and really did it. Man! That’s just too cool. :cool:

  • BigBhd95

    @Karl not sure if i did or not BUT sure go for it if you like B.B. :cool:

  • beevee14

    I had something like that happen to me so I can relate. The papers were more of the, ugh, legal variety so all I could do was retreat and ride it out. She still brings it up about twice a year to see if the knife still twists!

    I guess that answers Che’s question

  • BigBhd95

    thanks Che Volay i really had a great time :smile:
    too bad Marina had plans right after the book sighning,
    it would have been much better if she took me up on my offer for
    dinner or even a ride on my hog ;-) the reporter for bloomberg news might have gone :roll: maybe i should have offered her a ride :lol: :mrgreen: B.B. :cool:

  • Lennie

    I can’t wait for the download any longer, it’s 2:00 at night, I’m off to bed

  • beevee14

    Stones. Hes got’em

    Hey BigBhd95,
    I just sent you a PM (private message) on the Forum to confirm that the uploaded pic is of you. You should see the message in your email.

  • BigBhd95

    When they use the term “heavy Russian accent”, the expectation is for slow speech and troublesome syntax, with the listener having difficulty understanding words, here ‘n’ there . None of that is the case in Marina’s English. . It would be more accurate to state that Marina teaches with a Russian accent. It’s a minor point, but it’s been mentioned before in articles. In the English language world, everybody has an accent, from the Queen of England to Sarah Palin to the Geico gecko. To my ears, a Russian accent is sexy…if coming from a woman. The pic of Marina chosen for the article meets with my approval, with it’s eye catching appeal do to it’s composition and subject matter.

  • bobsully

    This is a great article. It’s great watching you grow in popularity, while still being yourself. I still enjoy you Marina. I find a lot of joy sharing in your success. In some strange way I feel a small part of it.

  • http://favrd.textism.com/person/chevolay Che Volay

    “Stones. Hes got’em” LOL

  • http://calling-muggins.blogspot.com/ muggins

    It’s hard to take somebody seriously when they have typos , and I was tryin’ to be serious as a mofo.

  • hankhoogwater

  • http://vkontakte.ru/id25408688 leonard

    What did you win? …a hoe hacks…so Marina is a movie star..****?..****

  • http://www.GoForThisWorld.com Hs4Mm

    Thanks for your interest, but it is something I can’t answer.

  • doncross2bear

    I loved the Bloomberg article on you. It puts you and what you do in a good light, especially considering some of the hacks that can be found on YouTube these days. It was great, both for you, and for YouTube. I especially liked Ms. Kazakina’s subtle reference to your cleavage, paraphrasing Lenin’s descriptive term for Western apologists of his philosophy. Keep up the great work.
    Your humble student,
    dc
