Nice

Would you like to go on hotforwords.com with me?

I had never really thought about the word “date” that was really interesting Marina. Thanks for All You Do Gorgeous.

bummer I lost my information twice now -that is filling out the date thingy…will try again…SOUL many LaWS…will keep being crazy :lol: saintly of…goats

HOMEWORK: Yes…

I have my theory test today.. Wish me luck. Infact you all could wish me luck in the comments on my latest video lol

yumPhoenix dactylifera commonly known as the Date Palm, is a palm in the genus Phoenix, extensively cultivated for its edible sweet fruit. Due to its long history of cultivation for fruit, its exact native distribution is unknown, but probably originated somewhere in the desert oases of northern Africa, and perhaps also southwest Asia. It is a medium-sized tree, 15-25 m tall, often clumped with several trunks from a single root system, but often growing singly as well. :lol: What is a good word for fear of smart and sexy lady?…(leonard did the filling out of date form…3rd try) :lol: [tart] —- is a pastry dish, usually sweet, that is a type of pie with an open top not covered with pastry.— dates too…i’m excited ;-)

With the comments :?: good luck :!:

Hey, Marina! I was wondering where the word [web] as in website originates from. Thanks!

Yes, with the comments :razz:

WoW…i’m like freaked….GOOD GOD++++++I can not say…sock it to me :oops: :idea: :smile:

I’d like to request the word [Toque].

Why is it that Canadians like to call their knit caps toques?

Since you’ve brought the subject up, can you tell us the truth about [romance] and [romantic] in the common vernacular and without exaggeration or invention? What do the Romans have to do with it?

Homework: why yes I call them dates. Sometimes I call them Pookie, or sweety, or hunnybuns.

Great vid. I gave up dating (that’s the word I used) a couple years ago. Can’t seem to pair up with a lady who won’t rip out my heart and eat it like an apple :(
I’d love to enter the contest, but I fear that my appearance may ruin your dinner appetite. My current motto: “If the women don’t find you handsome, they should at least find you charming. But chances are they won’t find you at all.” Love to Teacher, dc xoxo

Bob, this is obviously a question of entomology, not etymology: “Rome ants” and “Roman tics.” :razz:

Hey, what do you expect from an insomniac at 4:30AM? :lol:

HW: The liason itself = date, The object of the liason = Sweety.

Yeah, what’s the entomology of [web]? :razz:

[website] itself is thought to be either a transliteration of the Russian веб-сайт or translation of the Welsh gwefan, lit. “web place.” :lol:

“It’s true, I tell you!”â„¢CampKohler :razz:

And how do Canadians spell “Canada”?

C, eh? N, eh? D, eh? :lol:

Marina, don’t give up hope. I would love to walk on the beach with you and discuss etymology. There’s bound to be someone half my age in California with the same interests. :razz:

Hey Bob,
Did you know that what you are
seeking is also seeking you?
Trust me. Click the All Words link
at the top, then click the letter R
and scroll down to Romantic.
You didn’t like that origin?

:grin: AWESOME lesson :!: Congratz leonard :!: :grin:
Homework Yes, I call them dates.
:cool: Word Request [Jalopy]

Hmmm … the cat must have eaten my notes from that lesson. :oops:

That was a great lesson about the origin of the word “date”. You can always pick among the many gentlemen that visit your site. I know of at least one who would love to go out with you. ;-)

Congratz leonard for the great choice of words. :smile:

Squeeze is the word I was trying to get to work. :oops:

pfft. i still feel discriminated. D:

For our sake maybe she likes older men. :cool:

good luck, james! \o/

figs.. lol! marina chose your word.. awesome, leonard! \o/

Why don’t you try to date Lance Armstrong? It could be fun!!!!!

YEEE-HAAAW! HOWDY Ms. Marina,

this is DJ from TEXAS!
I just rode on to your site, WOW!!!
I’m not a big computer geek, but you might get me saddled–if your LUCKYU!

I wanna request y’all do the word or phrase [ TEXAS COWBOY]
cuz that’s what i am darlin’.

ride it like u stole it,
dj

yeah, she could give him a lesson on “doping”.

Hi there Marina.

I was wondering if you could tell me the origin of the word: “Douchebag”
Love your show, its my birthday btw :)

Speaking of Latin…

[i.e.] [id est] — your nametag at Erhard Seminar Training? :???:
[e.g.] [exemplo gratia]
[etc.] [et cetera]
[misc.] [miscellaneous]

And of course…
[Data] :lol:

That’s what they say about Russian women on those dating sites. :lol:

So a date is a romantic liaison then? I always thought that a romantic liaison was a romantic liaison and that a date was a mere rendez-vous or a small brownish fruit? Bah! Who cares! What is said in California stays in California!

Alright leonard!! Great video Marina!! Homework: I haven’t dated since the 30′s. I looked up the definitions of words I use in place of date and most were slightly related–[wingding] [hootenanny] and [shindig]. Probably just personal slang. I did some extra credit and found some info. for your beach boyfriend.

A toque is actually a hockey-helmet protector. Its name comes from the noise it makes when you knock on it with your fist. Toc.. toc.. toc…

Here… Have a look!

It is true I tell you!

Hey Marina, I’d like to know the origin of the word [Mirror]

oops double post

also could you make a diet/workout tips video, or have you done that already?

Dear Marina,
You look great in a black bikini top! And you really blew a kiss for the first time! (You usually superimpose a drawing of a kiss mark.) I liked that! :razz:
A “date” doesn’t always refer to a romantic liason. It can just mean a social meeting, such as lunch at the Blu Jam Cafe, or to go to the movies, or to see a Lakers basketball game. If a “date” only meant a “makeout session”, then I’d be embarassed to hug, cuddle and kiss you inside a Lakers basketball game! The crowd might say nasty things! :shock:
But since I like your definition of a “date”, I’ll try to win that contest for a “romantic liason” with you! :razz:
Seesixcm6

Your date contest made me think of this tune from old Hugh. Way cool, if you’ve not heard it. And if I remember code.

Don’t forget to vote for our date on Sexiest Geek HotForWords or some is listed as Marina Orlova. *\o/*

http://www.wired.com/underwire/2009/12/sexy-geeks-2009

{Rendesvous}? I have not had a chance to get a girl out on a date in two decades. They all turn me down, never call my phone number or are just plain not interested. I had signed up for Twitter because you had said I might have a chance of a lunch date with you as a prize. Loneliness did not make me a successful scientist; it made me quit science altogether!!

Passed

I PASSED MY THEORY!!! Congratz me on my video lol http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J5uwl9RF_9E

Sorry Marina, I really shouldn’t be doing that.

congregations james *\o/*

:smile:

Thank you rijk!

good word leonard : )

DILEMMA… I want a blackbery… Yes or no.

Hmm always called them dates… then more dates ment “going out together” then there was “going steady” which ment that was the only girl you would date ( i foolishly always honored this arrangement..sigh) You know… “dates” never seemed to work out well. Establishing meaningful friendships always worked better. Marinas really pretty (obviously) … I think this is a good angle for her to explore. Shed get more out of fun conversation and common interest here with her fan base. Otherwise she probably picks up some real dotards. :mrgreen:

{mace} or [nutmeg]…U-R…HEAR :grin: this—Baby, you’ve got what it takes

c’mon pk go for her she’s up for grabs. ; )

homework: pk is going to have a date!

Hey Marina, I would like to know the origins of the word [Suicide]
I wonder how the meaning of killing themselves became to this…. I don’t know what “Sui” or Cide” means sooo……..

Please help me my dear teacher.

Hugs n kisses xxx

I swear I must be the luckiest guy ever.. GF has agreed to go to college dressed in burlesque.

It’s hard being white isn’t it! :razz:

Gosh How can you be on Date.com? I would think your profile would be overloaded my now

Way to go leonard! :grin:

i would like to know the orgin of (window)

I have a word I think you could have a lot of fun doing a video for, [orogeny], both for it’s actual meaning and the phrase orogenic zones. Which sounds awfully dirty ;-) .

how did u come up with ure username

That is the funniest thing I have seen in ages! Thanks for sharing! :mrgreen:

Hello Marina,how has your new year’s been?The video was good.I liked the dual role ,I thought it was funny!I hope you find someone special on your date.com,I think you will be so swamped how will you pick through the huge crowd!It was good to hear from you again Marina.I loved all the different outfits you ware on the video!Good Bye ,and may the stars above shine upon you tonight :!: :cool: :smile:

Hi Marina, I am interested in the origin of the word [fuck]. Yes, THAT word :shock: . It is a noun, a verb, an adjective… what isn’t it?

I know my request is a bold one that may make someone :oops: while explaining it, but f u c k is a word too, despite the censorship. It deserves an explanation of origin, don’t you think?

I heard it was an acronym, meaning “(F)ornication (U)nder (C)ontrol of the (K)ing,” referring to taxation of prostitution in American Colonies during the British rule. Am I wrong?

Cheers.

:smile: I think dates should be called situational comedies that way no one feels bad if and when they pull a boner or do something that seems out of place.

Marina,

For your “Date Profile” – just be yourself, you are adorable.

PS – Same advise was I given my neices “All men are pigs, don’t trust them”;)-

Funny the word date!
It’s like why do we park on the driveway & Drive on the parkway. The words and there true meaning are so screwed up by everyone. Hum.
Makes me wounder how! the world evolves? :roll:
P.S Marina U rule angel!

so what, your girlfriend goes to all the colleges dressed in burlesque.

Rendezvous!

Hello palatalised,
Yes, the F acronym is a myth and Marina has done the F word on at least two occasions. One of them is in this article in Men’s Magazine. Check it out.
http://www.askmen.com/top_10/entertainment/top-10-word-myths_1.html

Marnia has also done the F word on page 172 in her recently published book which you can find out more about by clicking the link at the top where it says “My Book” or click here.
http://www.hotforwords.com/my-book/

She has also touched on the word on numerous radio shows.

Ducking the Devil (1957)
Tasmania is the only natural habitat of the fox-sized creatures, the world’s largest [marsupial] carnivore. The animals release a foul odor under stress, and they screech and scream when they feed, a behavior that led to their name. Their powerful jaws enable them to eat entire cows, including bones and fur.
…thanks for the reminder from a tweet of HFW…The Tasmanian devil (Sarcophilus harrisii) belongs to the family Dasyuridae. The genus Sarcophilus contains two other species known only from Pleistocene fossils, S. laniarius and S. moomaensis. The relationships between the three species are not clear. Phylogenetic analysis shows that the devil is most closely related to quolls, and more distantly to the extinct Thylacine (Tasmanian Tiger).**^**The devil stores body fat in its tail, so unhealthy devils often have thin tails. An ano-genital scent gland at the base of its tail is used to mark the ground behind them with its scent. When agitated, the devil can produce a strong odour, its pungency rivalling even the skunk.

{hearded} by [HERDS]—-I remember sp(L)icing tape… :lol: Splicing in a large run of hemp was strenuous work, and generally the ship’s best Able Seamen were chosen to carry out the task under the supervision …source Wiki’…Splice the mainbrace is an order given aboard naval vessels to issue the crew with a drink. Originally an order for one of the most difficult emergency repair jobs aboard a sailing ship, it became a euphemism for authorized celebratory drinking afterward, and then the name of an order to grant the crew an extra ration of [rum or grog].

The first time is a “meet and greet”…. after and if there’s interest then the “date” happens…. simple enough….

WTF? Leonard!

Teacher –
You don’t need Date.com!! You have an entire world of happy students eager to spend long evenings walking on the beach with you, discussing the origin of words!

Hi Gorby!

Hello kiran205!—You are in luck, Marina already did window-”Wind’s Eye”…merry christmas and new year cheers :smile:

Hi! I love your exampled style of teaching the origins/backgrounds of words.

Would you please make your next lesson about the word [podophilia]. That word interests me the most and I think everyone would enjoy learning all about it.

Thanks gorgeous!

Here’s the question; “do I really want this date?”

I’d love nothing more than to spend time with our gorgeous teacher but I gotta say that I don’t know how I’m gonna feel afterwards. I know I would never stand a chance with Marina but the date would probably leave me with false hopes aas they usually do. What am I worrying about, I’ll never win anyway.

I was watching the reality TV series BLIND DATE on local TV at 3am and then they or I gave it up. One foolish episode was of a christian who actually tried to convert his girl date on their first date!! Sounded goofy to me!! Good ol Roger Lodge was the host ofr BLIND DATE. It seemed to give me hope that I did not have to have a million dollars to get a date with a girl. But I hear from outdoors some assheads degrading me saying I was too fat, too poor, too old to get a date with a girl!! My response is SCHOOL’S OUT!!

Oh, and not to be confused with Poly Mare which isn’t located at Cal Poly but might be located near das Meer while puffing away on a meerschaum. Now, put that in your pipe and smoke it. :lol:

Can’t seem to enter an acceptable screen name for your dating link application.

Thanks for suggesting a Date! I’ll hafta check my schedule and see if I am available! I hope you don’t take me for just some [tin-horn]…..and yes I AM serious…. and stop calling me Shirley!

WTF :?: Sparkyinseattle :!: Datum: concerning the tasmanian devil- is due, to the nature of and extintion—what happened was when I went for a link from the L.A.

the more I thought… about how eating is [detrimental] in making good impression on “the (flirt)first-date” …that old looney-tune came to mind :oops:

:P I hope I ducked my daffyness…[[[CANCER]]] is from old coal of 250million years ago…

I’ve always liked the word SOIREE…. it sounds sexy, and I tend to use it, though maybe out of context at times. Soiree is more of a reference to a group date, right? I must investigate….

A date with that HFW chick?
What’s her name, Marina Rodina or something?
She’s Russian or somthin, isn’t she?
Maybe if I wear my Ooshanka from Irkutsk in -60C and take a photo of myself I’ll win an airplane ticket to La La land and lunch at STK?
I like steak sandwiches. Thai would be cool too. Or Mr Chow’s with Pauley Shore? Did I do the painting of Marina Rodina before or after that video in the street. I still think “Rodina” is a cool stage name for Marina. Now that’s she’s going truly digital and SUNthetic with the wigs she can play all kinds of characters (that black t-shirt tough is more subtle and cool in this video than before. I’d say develop her character more like a brother of Marina, who annoys his sister and makes fun of her- not like he’s “hot” for her…let the audience do that, as the brother points out what Boobgirl is doing.

That reminds me, haven’t I heard that “win a date with me” thing before? The lunch date the NASCAR guy, 12-14 months ago? I’m curious if the guy had fun- or if it even happened. Please excuse me if I missed it, but after it was announced I never saw anything go by afterwards. No video. No mention of “BillyBumpers and I had a great date.”

Gee, now that she’s going digital and synthetic, if I win a date with MOMO, I hope she’ll wear a “Mommy wig” and Lady GaGa Playtex Mommy bra and retro 60′s glasses and let me call her Theodore!
We can dress as chipmunks and go to a Veggie place.

OK, OK, I’ll play the game at the date site. I get Russian chicks hitting on me online all the time as it is. Ukranians rock. What I’d like to find at that baiting…er DATING web site is a chick to go see DIANA KRALL in concert with… anywhere… or a driver who knows how to handle a Porsche in Europe and would like to go to Stuttgart next summer to pick up my ’11 model year TS with me and break it in in the Alps and of course on the ‘bahn. It’ll be 550 hp/520fp for 10 secs, lightweight carbon body with ceramic brakes (if any hot footed lady is out there, I think we’re looking like a June build and a July pickup. One-two week mind blower in Europe and we take it back to factory so car can be in US in September)

I wouldn’t say “no” to a date with MO, but I’m only available in March now. That’s when I’m doing meetings in LA and Burbank. Frankly, I’d just as soon stay the BS “father figure” she takes for granted (MO told 26,00 people on this site (or whatever the number is here) in a posting a few weeks ago that she loves me like a father. But Paris doesn’t bother responding to business email-let alone gifts. No problem. You know Daddy (look at Paris Hilton’s and see me smiling through). We’re very forgiving and love our snotty little girls… you know, the ones who do BoobTube and who do chest BAIT for…

Another of my romance problems might be harassment by the FBI. I had written to the author of an Al Capone webiste called “Gambino.com” about legal aid once against the pigs. Some of them government pigs are human excrement. I do not have a criminal record. It is a tactic to try to make me go back to college.
Toleldo, Ohio seems to be a FEMINIST CAPITAL.. We have had a 30 year congresswoman named Marcy Kaptur. We have had a female mayor in the 80′s named Donna Owens. And toledo has female judges and other polticians. Maybe this is why the police demaind I show such respect for womein in the stores. A female psychologist once told me the Krogers was a good place to me et women. Another had told me that internet dating was a good way to meet women. I had seen or heard on the news that some cities in Russia and Italy the women read the news in the nude! The poles of North Toledo also gave me hate over this. It is not a crime for a man’s wife to work outside the home. I say they are the stereotypical POLISH JOKES about whom Polish Joke books were written in the 70′s. they had a sex crimes detective being interviewed during one Piolish Village Festival and the man did not want his faca shown on TV as he was afraid of being murdered in retribution by someone. Maybe their “feminist friendly policing” is politically motivated to suck up to women polticians and women voters. Maybe I would like to live in Russia or Western Europe where things do not seem to be so bad in that area! They tossed out my science career because I hated the CIA and whoever elso is harassing me over women. They think next door they talk down to a little kid!!! I have been two years to grad school!!

I would like to request a word. Where did the expression [tin-horn] come from?

Where did the word [Hooky], in relation to skipping school, come from?

Hey all, here is a HotForWords copycat (or would that be copykitten :razz: ?)

http://www.slurpswish.com/wordpress/

Marina is far sexier, but this chick is NAKED :D. OK, the camera shows from the top of the busom up, but still …

Interestingly, this chick uses the same music and hawks for the same sponsor (GoDaddy).

Of course, I wonder is Marina is the one that is the copykitten? :lol:

I would like to request a lesson on the word [pwn]. Interesting because it didn’t arise out of spoken English.

I called them “dates” when I had them.

[snow] Really! Just look at this!

LOL! I Just happened to be on date.com and I came across a lovely lady, she didn’t like smoking though, so I would have to quit if I met her. :| .

Also said she spends money as soon as she gets it, and makes videos… We have a lot in common!

She said she was 28 though, I want a friend who is a bout 29 :(

Delicious oitfit of you Marina!
I really love you :smile:

I like to requst the word fisticuffs for my friend Joanne

It comes from the idea of military commandos who would go into battles with the bare minimum.
If you’re going commando you’re going with the bare minimum of acceptable clothing.
I think that’s right…

Arachnophobia is a fear of spiders. Spiders are arachnids, hence the ‘arachno’ part. This comes from the greek ‘arachne’ meaning spider.
Phobia comes from ‘phobos’, the greek for ‘fear’. Some just stuck the two words together to mean fear of spiders.

Hahahahahahaha that’s a good one!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So it is clearly greek word? Interesting…

Comes from latin. ‘Sui’ meaning ‘self’ and ‘caedere’ meaning ‘to fall’. They were then compounded into suicidium which is where the English comes from.

hmm just sitting here reading some posts… put me in mind of a word I’ve used in the past to mean an idiot … PUTZ.

Like “That guy in the video is such a putz”

What is the true meaning of the word putz and wheres it come from?

Obviously of Welsh origin — “w” is a vowel in Welsh, as in [cwm], “valley, cirque,” which rhymes with English “doom.”

[Pwn] was originally Welsh for “play on words.” :mrgreen: Or maybe not. :roll:

oooh yiddish? that is different.

The use of w as a vowel would also be an interesting topic, although I don’t think it applies in the case of [pwn] which is a word that came from the internet.

“Let them eat cake”…why not?….[margherita pizza] :smile: ——In the 1st century BC, the Latin poet Virgil refers to the ancient idea of bread as an edible plate or trencher for other foods in this extract from his Latin poem, the Aeneid:

Their homely fare dispatch’d, the hungry band
Invade their trenchers next, and soon devour,
To mend the scanty meal, their cakes of flour.

Ascanius this observ’d, and smiling said:

“See, we devour the plates on which we fed.”

These flatbreads, like pizza, are from the Mediterranean area and other examples of flat breads that survive to this day from the ancient Mediterranean world are focaccia (which may date back as far as the Ancient Etruscans), coca (which has sweet and savory varieties) from Catalonia, Valencia and the Balearic Islands, the Greek Pita or Pide in Turkish or Piadina in the Romagna part of Emilia-Romagan in Italy. :smile: Marina!!!—Could you do a show on [BREAD]….HotForWords makes words tasty

The origin of the word “pizza” is unclear, but by 997 it had appeared in Medieval Latin, and in 16th century Naples a galette flatbread was referred to as a pizza. The pizza was a baker’s tool: a dough used to verify the temperature of the oven.[citation needed] A dish of the poor people, it was sold in the street and was not considered a kitchen recipe for a long time…sourced from link :smile:

Of course, that’s merely a request… :roll:

Marina, I just got an email from cards@hotforwords-cards.com asking me to re-sign up. Thunderbird, my email program, labeled it as a scam, but it often erroneously does this. Was that a legitimate message from you or some sort of scam?

BTW, I call my dates, “darlin’.”

Dear Teacher,

could you please do the word [spectrometer] for us?

Thank you again,

Scott

Hello ecwrocks152,

Hello hotrocky,
I would like to address your question and concern.

First, keep in mind that I am not speaking for Marina. I have not touched base with her on this, however, such emails are very common and I am familiar with similar emails in the past as well as some comments she posted last year.

Last year, Marina posted a comment regarding finding a cheaper alternative to the company she was using. Sending emails such as the cards that Marina sends out can get very expensive if one wants to send out let’s say more than tens of thousands of emails. So, it seems this email served two purposes. One was to let you know about the latest lesson, and second it is a way for Marina to know who is still interested in receiving email notifications.

I received what I presume is the exact same email that you received. If after you read my comments it seems that my email is different from yours, then ignore my comments.

You did not identify an important piece of information which is the Subject line. My email said; A new lesson from HotForWords. Did your email Subject line say that? If so, then I presume that we received an identical email and I will proceed with my comments.

Regarding your questions:
You said that your email asked you to re-sign up. Presuming your email and mine are identical, I did not see that wording anywhere.

My email said; “Please confirm your continued interest …”
I am being very picky about the wording because re-signing up and confirming may seem like the same activity to you, but actually can and usually does have very different motives which I won’t get into, but is very common in the industry.

Regarding Thunderbird.
You said that Thunderbird labeled it as scam, but often erroneously does. I disagree with that characterization. All filters do their job based on a set of rules. An erroneous flagging would occur if an email was flagged where there was no rule to be broken which is extremely rare.

The usual terminology that is used is False Positive and False Negatives. Scam filters that are very simple like in Thunderbird will present you with many False Positives. If you don’t like that, then you can turn it OFF. You can also activate your Junk filter which works differently and you have more control over your emails.

Keep in mind there is a difference between “scam” and “spam” (junk) and there is a difference between sophisticated filters and simple ones. That scam filter is very simple.

In Thunderbird under Options, then Privacy, you will see two tabs. One labeled E-Mail Scams and one labeled Junk. The Junk filter refers to “spam”. Notice that the Junk filter can be trained by you where the Scam filter has no user options.

This is a huge never ending topic and there is way too much that can be said about it.

Karl, The Thunderbird scam filter tags all messages that have to do with guns rights, liberty, Ron Paul, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights or Fully Informed Jury rights, so I tend to think it was programmed by a Socialist or lover of big government. I’m still getting the notices from HotForWords, so I have not responded to the other mail. Thanks for the info.

Dear Marina – I am wondering if there is an etymological correlation between the words свидание (meeting, date, rendezvous) , данный (given) and дать ( to give). If so, it is interesting, don’t you think, that the same connection exist in the English word “date” as you so beautifully point out? Please check out my Learning Russian blog http://learningrussian.wordpress.com Спасибо! До свидания!

Hi Rocky,
Sorry Rocky, but you are confusing SPAM with SCAM.
Scams are emails intended to deceive and in almost all cases, the keywords like guns, constitution, etc has nothing to do with it.

SPAM mostly does have something to do with keywords and you are able to manage those keywords using your SPAM filtering. If you need help with that I can assist you.

SCAM and how it works
Scams or commonly known as phishing emails are intended to deceive. There are many ways I can send you an email to deceive you and the SCAM filter will Flag that email.

Here is just one example of a deception and I want you to prove this to yourself.

For example, I’m sure that you have received a web link that might look like this which may be underlined or it may be an image or a button.

I want you to click the following Yahoo link. Where does it take you? Yahoo right? That was not a deception. This is a normal link.
Yahoo

OK, now, I want you to click the following link that says Yahoo. Where did it take you? It took you to this HotForWords site, right? That WAS a deception, but that does NOT mean it was evil.
Yahoo

OK, are you with me so far? Thunderbird Scam filters look for rules of deception.

Now, I want YOU to send yourself an email from another account, preferably one that has a different domain. If your normal email is an AOL account, send yourself an email from GMAIL as an example or have a friend send you the following email.

In the email all I want you to do is to put in one deceptive link, with no words. But, in this case, I want you to make the deceptive link some phony URL such as the one that follows. I am using square brackets and spaces in the URL so it is not rendered. You will want to use the real HTML angle brackets and remove the spaces.

This is a deceptive URL, but does not mean it is evil. In real life, that numeric URL could be a real Yahoo URL.

[a href="http : // 12.23.34.56/click.html"] Yahoo [/a]

The above link does not exist. Thunderbird does not care whether the link exists, it cares that it was a deception URL and so, that email with that single link and no words will be flagged as Scam.

That is just one rule of many which are used to identify an email as a Scam and has nothing to do with Spam.

Here is one of hundreds of web sites that talk about what a Scam or Phishing email is all about.
http://www.microsoft.com/protect/fraud/phishing/symptoms.aspx

So, to address your concern about all of those other emails that you are getting and why they are getting flagged as scam is because inside the emails there are phrases and HTML codes that can be labeled as potential means for deception. It doesn’t mean that they are, it means that they could be. The Scam button that Flags your emails is an alert (Flag) and not a declaration of a scam.

THANKS…”kill a screw”…good one, I had friends that would say; an open bottle is soon to be an empty one…

Gelato, plural gelati, is Italy’s regional variant of ice cream. As such, gelato is made with some of the same ingredients as most other frozen dairy desserts. Milk, cream, various sugars, flavoring including fruit and nut purees and air are the main ingredients. Gelatin (spelt “gelatine” in Commonwealth countries, from the French gélatine) is a translucent, colorless, odorless, brittle, nearly tasteless solid substance, derived from the collagen inside animals’ skin and bones. It is commonly used as a gelling agent in food, pharmaceuticals, photography, and cosmetic manufacturing. Substances containing gelatin or functioning in a similar way are called gelatinous. Gelatin is an irreversibly hydrolyzed form of collagen, and is classified as a foodstuff, with E number E441. It is found in some “gummy” candies as well as other products such as marshmallows, gelatin dessert, and some low-fat yogurt. Some dietary or religious customs forbid the use of gelatin from certain animal sources, and medical issues may limit or prevent its consumption by certain people.

Gël:

Lichk (Ô¼Õ«Õ³Ö„, also Romanized as Lichk’ and Lichq; formerly, Gël and Gyol) is a town in the Gegharkunik province of Armenia. Lichk and Gyol mean “lake” in Armenian and Turkish, respectively. :cool:

From going fishing?

My guess is that someone new to the West might have one of those new-fangled powder horns made from tin (vs. from real animal horn).

Nice “Fireman Hat” lamp. Did you get that for Christmas? :cool:

Hwk: “Date”, and nothing in the world beats a good one…

Except that when they were made of tin, they were flasks rather than horns. Still puzzled! :?:

Karl : I found the latest lesson in my spam also; it said to reconfirm sending updates… :?:

“Conservatism, ever more timorous and narrow, disgusts the children, and drives them for a mouthful of fresh air into radicalism.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882). U.S. essayist, poet, philosopher. “Power,” The Conduct of Life (1860).

“For never yet one hour in his bed
Did I enjoy the golden dew of sleep,
But with his timorous dreams was still awaked.”

William Shakespeare (1564-1616). British dramatist, poet. [Lady Anne on the misery of being married to Richard III.] Richard III.

Mr. and Mrs. Somebody still go on dates. With all of everybody’s schedules, we have to plan a future date for any possible “romantic get togethers.” :roll:

Hello my dear friend leonard,
I hope that you do not take offense at my critique of your comments.

You said:
“I found the latest lesson in my spam also;”

If it is true that you found the HotForWords email in your spam folder, then what you said is accurate. However, the addition of the word “also” at the end is false and should not have been added.

The discussion with Rocky and me concerned the flagging of his and my email as SCAM which is something totally different than when an email is sent to the SPAM folder. I did not find my email in the SPAM folder and Rocky did not say that his was in the SPAM folder so your word “also” would not be accurate.

Then you said:
“it said to reconfirm sending updates”

Are you sure it said “reconfirm”?
The email that I received from HotForWords did not have that word anywhere in the email. In the email it said;
“Please confirm your continued interest…”

The action that you may have been doing was a reconfirming, but that is not what it said in the email.

Sorry for being so anal about these small details, but as you know “the devil is in the details”. :smile:

You’re receiving this email because you signed up to the HotForWords website. Please confirm your continued interest in receiving emails from HotForWords.

:oops: I thought that also….t h a n k s for your concern….DIDO-thank-you :smile:

well – its yiddish – but – then again – i like to point out how all languages are related – PUTZ – is slang for the male member – its something you PUT somewhere – and that is it’s core meaning – its why a PUCK sounds so much like F–K! a puck is something you shoot into a goal as well. and P and F are very close etymological relatives. It’s why FISHES are PISCES and FATHER is PADRE, etc.

HI kARL: “the devil is in the details”.
Are the details through?…Should I continue looking for “HotForWords” email in spam?… or forget about any email concerning HotForWords? :shock:

Hi Leonard,
Yes, you should look for any HotForWords emails in the spam folder, but you can automate that process by using your email filters and let them do the job for you. What email client are you using? I use Thunderbird which lets me designate any HotForWords email as a friend so it gets routed to a friends folder instead of the spam folder.

You should also understand the difference between a scam or phony web address versus the legitimate one. You know what the HotForWords address looks like above in the address bar and anything that looks suspicious you should proceed with caution.

In the late 99s’ I bought several Rebecca St. James CD’s though a christian CD club. I used to really like her voice in the late 90′s. she becamse like the living patron saint of sexual abstinance. I am not willingly celbate I really want a lady. There was a blond woman who looked and sounded like her on BLIND DATE. and she said all kinds of filthy sounding stuff about sex to her date on camera. It was funny becasue of what rebecca stood for sexual purity to teenage girls. I want a girlie and I feel exhausted from writing to girls on the internet and chatting on IM with some who got downright abusive towards me, some form nigeria an ghana some white some non-white. Network Europe pointed out that there are 10 million poor in europe too. I think they abused me because I could not send them money.

[SCIENCE]… :cool: ….Hendiadys (pronounced /hÉ›nˈdaɪ.É™dɨs/, a Latinized form of the Greek phrase ἓν διὰ δυοῖν, hèn dià duoîn, “one through two”) is a figure of speech used for emphasis — “The substitution of a conjunction for a subordination”. The basic idea is to use two words linked by a conjunction to express a single complex idea.

English names for hendiadys include two for one and figure of twinnes….Butterfly is a SLANG word…
