    i would vote for you. You couldn’t have screwed thinks up have as much as Bush did.
    And if we get screwed, it might as well be by someone whom is pleasing to the eye

  2. About those numbers…
    Guess how many nulls are in those numbers!

    (Sorry, but I couldn’t find it in English)

    “The nominal names of degrees of thousand”
    (if I translated it correctly :smile: )

    Именные названия степеней тысячи

    To 2009 Marina – Bet you didn’t think that numbers like this would become so relevant so fast…

    For the citizens of 2059 reading this – what numbers are you dealing with now? Did Marina think ahead far enough? :???:

    She’s still a babe at 78 right now. Follow her on Twitter, but don’t be offended if she doesn’t follow you back! :smile:

  4. You sure do look great in the colors of red, white, and blue, especially when you can see most of your body to contrast it!! :wink: :wink:

    I would gladly have voted for you over either of those two posers. HFW for pres and HFP for VP lol. White house press briefings would become so much fun.

    ASAP Word Request for “Admendment” to save America

    Marina you are a financial genius. Your resourceful thinking to slash the national debt from 48 trillion to 48 billion is way better than the old fashion method of printing more money. It’s even better than when the USA went off the gold standard. It more than rivals using the tax revenue from Social Security to balance the federal budget. You have figured out how solve the national debt problem faster than inflation. Overnight, Awesome!

    However I must inform you that you need to be born an American to become President and carry out your plan. But an amendment to the Constitution could change that. So let’s tackle the problem head on by changing the meaning of amendment. That could be done with one really good word lesson.

    No doubt you are just the woman for the job. How many times we have seen you start with a word and by the end of the word lesson its meaning is changed entirely.

    It’s an easy job for you. I’m so happy about this.

    So let’s get started now. We have only a few months left before the election. I’ll start the research for you to speed you on your way.

    Hmm. Middle English amenden from Old French amender from Latin émendāre “to correct”. Nothing helps so far. From ex- “out” + menda “fault, blemish”. Nope I’m stuck.

    OK trying another approach and having a look at the Constitution. Article Two “…. The President must be a natural born citizen of the United States, be at least 35 years old, and a resident of the United States for 14 years …” dammit, two more qualifications neither of which you meet now.

    Forget the whole thing. I’m really bummed.

    • Hi dvorak,
      The heck with the rules…. Marina is being recruited to be president… the only viable alternative to all the alternatives by popular demand. Check out the news. Marina 4 President :grin:

      • dvorak says: 7.1.1

        Hooray! The groundswell of Marinacrats is sure to get a majority of the votes in November.

        We can get used to word lessons in pants suits if it will save the country.

        And what to do about Article Two? Has anyone ran WhiteSmoke on the Constitution yet?

        • I think we can deal with one qualification fairly easily: “natural born citizen of the US”
          Well, we’ll have to make her a citizen, of course, but by the next elections, that should be done. So no problem there.
          As to natural born: The founding fathers must have meant the process of giving birth, perhaps thinking that someone born through a caesarean section might suffer damage to the head and be less capable of carrying out the office.
          Now, whether or not Marina was born “naturally,” due to advances in medicine humans born by c-section do not generally suffer any damages from the process.
          As many Americans today are born by c-section, this part of article 2 is obviously discriminatory to people born by c-section. Therefore, it should be amended immediately.
          And once we’re at that, we can get rid of some of those other qualifications, too.
          How about that?

    omg! this explains why Stephen Hawking uses the word thousand million instead of billion. He knew the billion was different for Europe and America. Thanks for this explanation HotForWords :)

  11. tedt says: 5

    Billion=Milliard in german (Milliarde)

  12. danvonbose says: 4

    One million = One thousand thousand
    One billion (US) = One thousand million
    One trillion = One thousand billion
    One quadrillion = One thousand trillion
    and so on by the Latin prefixes
    quintillion
    sextillion
    septillion
    octillion
    nonillion
    decillion
    unidecillion
    duodecillion
    We’ve got some large numbers here, some not recognized by the spell checker!!

    I like your hair in this one too, and you’re a bit shy which is cute…

  14. donv69 says: 2

    Wait, you forgot milliard.

    - million
    - milliard
    - billion
    - billiard

    I know the French and the British use this as well where a milliard = 1000 million.

    BTW, to make it even more confusing, french Quebec use the European form and the rest of Canada uses the U.S. form.

    As far as I am able to tell, the original billion (a million million) is as good as archaic now in Britain.
