Hair of the dog
Why would the hair of a dog help you get over a hangover?
This is another interactive video, so it’s good to watch it on YouTube for the full effect.. but I have the possible answers below as well.
Dog Hair Drink
Dog Hair in Wound
Shakespeare
the onaly cure is to drink or wate it out
Awww poor dog, thats a rough life it’s leading having to put up with her all day long jeesh. Hair of the dog for a Marina hangover would be hotforprofits.
random lesson—mothers are always right! how many before the one too many? clover honey wine is good like strawberry wine
so, is it bee wine? grape yeast? 
Marina works like a honey bee! Lucinda Williams – Honey Bee..rock on
Vitamin B1 and C and calcium with magnesium are good. Alcohol depletes vitamin b1 and makes you nutty
Hangover Regrets
…as you say, gross!!!!
Hangover cures…..use to sink a pint mid morning after a full on English Breakfast, followed by either a long brisk walk or bike ride. Oh, and a wtaer melon was always good.
Coke-Cola and plenty of water. Berrocca tablets full of goodies.
A period of time a while back, would never get a hangover just kept drinking….which was not so good.
Another cure which really did the trick was jumping out of a plane and drop 12,000 feet (parachute included!!!)
now days, plenty of water, fresh fruit, walk and avoid everyone for 24hours until my head gets back to base. Have not been hungover for ages but I dont drink hardly anything these days…… thats is unless my mad aunt visits….nutter, a lot of fun but oh my, need a few days recovery if she starts to put the world to rights. If we get to the story about all her collectable antiques & toby jugs I am locked in as no way out. I have tried several times to escape these 4am conversations but this just fuels her with more demands for booze and something to eat. The milkman comes and goes as with the second class mail, they do not stop, just wave laughing at us through the window as we dance to her golden oldie records (which I do enjoy). My calls for help are muted. While I lay there trying remind me of who I am and what just happened she is already visiting other relatives aiming to put the world to rights again…..the medical world hold their own breaths as she defies all. She is a nurse and has been refused to donate blood……….thinking about it, she will be due for her two month tour from NZ quite soon……..
Hi Marina,
Just wanted to let you know that this video done in wide screen format is also great. In the YT player the video is displayed in letterbox, but it is not bad. Using a Windows player the video is in wide screen format without the letterbox.
Menudo is the ultimate hangover cure.
One bowl and the hangover is far better.
I’ve heard that the prairie oyster is a great remedy.

Teacher -
Where did the word “Gadget” come from? And while I’m thinking about it, the word “Mug” has many meanings, from a cup, to a robbery… Could you look into them??
Test comment. Please ignore.
Can’t, it’s like a magnet.
“Kobe”
Is that the name of your pooch, Marina 
I thought that maybe it might have been the name of the desert, “Gobi” 
Pro’bly not 
Does this mean that Hot4Words is a basketball fan, or maybe a fan of Kobi 
It reminds me of an ol’ buddy that named his cats after boxing champions 
Oh, and thanks for that flute ‘n’ xylophone music 
It reminds me of the 1950’s travelogue music on TV 
(Gotta get that CD 
)
I was wondering where the word “whatever” originated from?
I’ve always been curious of the origins of the word “Qualm”.
Id like to know the Origins of “Orgasm”.
what about the word INSPIRATION and does INSPIRIT have anything to do with that word
Marina,
Excellent work on this one! Funny how science comes full circle from folk remedies to modern research. The dog hair concept is not dissimilar to a vaccine that uses dead diseased cells to stimulate an antibody reaction to fight the disease.
Hang in their good lookin’.
You’re the Best!
would love to know the origin of the word “tickle”
Please explain the greek origin of stoics and how it became an english word. I know it has something to do with the lesser socratics.
I’ve been curious for a long time, where did the word “Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia” come from & is it considered a real word? (my spell check doesn’t seem to think so)
http://www.hotforwords.com/2007/11/30/sesqui-wha/ Try this link, Think this is it.
Cap Jack Are you wearing out your F5, And starving to death yet?
Maybe Marina is your Syrian of the sea. Like in the Odyssey, Ulysses was drawn to the rocks. Stay off the rocks ol’ Man. It;s just the wind and the tide.
I heard a lone voice near the end of “Dog Hair Drink” video. Was the TV on? Did you have someone there talking on a cellphone?
Anyone else hear what I heard? Funny the things that get our attention that is just ilrelevant to the lesson.
CaptainJack, I heard that too.. I have a wireless mic.. I think it picks up radio stations… or perhaps it’s that damn poltergeist!!!
When the Police recorded “Does everyone Stare”, a wireless mike picked up some radio station playing opera. It was on the master tape, so they left it in rather than re-record – Check it out!
What the heck!
I thought you left them at the other hut? Did they follow you to your new place? Damn! You might have to an exorcist to remove the ghost. You better put Kobe to work and have her scare them off for you. 
The reason people are hungover when they wake up is because they are dehydrated and their meningeal sack (sack around the brain) is dry and constricting against the brain. The reason “hair of the dog” works is because it temporarily re hydrates you while numbing your senses a bit. I know nobody wants to hear this, but agua (water) is the best remedy for a hangover.
Drink malox when you get home, and two asprins in the am.
My trusty hot for words Marina. I would like to know the origin of the word “hookey” (to be truant; skipping or cutting class) . By the way I love the new thing you did with the Guess the Word Origin Game…funny stuff…as always love your videos and that smile of yours it brings the sun out everyday.
Maia Marina, new word requests:

hey been wondering about this. in the u.s. we say, “down on the farm, cattle on a ranch, on the north slope, out on the town, etc…” but we don’t usually say, “dog on the backyard, animals on the zoo, monkeys on the jungle” what determines the use of the word, “on”? i have a theory, but just wanted to know if anyone else is aware of this pattern?
My first thought would be that the IN almost signifies withing a boundary… such as in the zoo would imply within cages or the zoo itself.. dog in the yard might imply within the fence of the yard… the jungle might be within the boundaries of the trees.. and the on almost implies an open area.. BUT… you could look at the usage of the phrases.. “Where is the dog?” means, where is he located.. and you would say “In the back yard” meaning a certain area… the Lion is IN the zoo, meaning confined. Out on the town would mean getting away from confinement…. branching out into other places.
I don’t know.. just taking a stab here.
yea, that’s what i was thinking. i also considered these examples, “on the sidewalk, on the river, on the highway, on the trail.” these examples represent areas bounded on both sides yet open ended. now here is what i started thinking about. we say, “in the middle of the highway” but we say “on the side of the highway” now the reason must be that being, “in” the middle one is bound on both sides, but being, “on” the side, is beyond the boundary and thus boundless. as is the case with being “in” the middle of the river and being “on” the river’s edge. yea, the difference i think are the boundaries.
If Marina is taking a stab, that makes her a femme fatale.
Alright, the Prose Perro chiming in here…
First, let’s identify the problem. A person gets on a plane, not in one. A person gets on a bike. A person gets a rowboat or canoe, but on a sailboat, You get on a train, but what really starts screwing with your head is that you get IN a caboose. And to really fry your brain, you do get ON a bus, but once you’re on a particular bus you are said to be IN the bus.
The word “in” tends to emphasize “enclosure.” If the thing encloses you, then you typically get “in” that thing. Hence, an animal is “in” the zoo, etc., but “on” the prairie.
However, that’s not always the case, and it looks like the use of the word “on” is prevalent when you board something by walking. Hence, you get “in” a car, but “on” a train or a plane. Whether you later sit down appears to be irrelevant.
Although you enter a caboose by walking, you are already on the train when you do that – walking from car to car – therefore you get “in” the caboose and “on” the train.
that makes sense prospero811, i can imagine some of the difficulty boarding these early vessels, they had planned a boarding dock at the top of the empire state building for airships, imagine the view from that gangplank! i think that there is almost a flow chart approach to boarding, the most dangerous or exciting part is getting on, after that your in. so to describe it one would place emphasis on the, “on” part. “whew, i finally got on the titanic yea!” even now with airports and the unexpected events that occur to travelers boarding or getting “on” is something to emphasize. of course getting “on” the plane doesn’t mean your “in” the air yet.
Insane.
It’s Hick Talk, Hay seeds’ Plow Boys, Them good ol boys down on the farm.
you made me think of something. the difference between, “in your head” and “on your mind” ain’t that interesting?
If you take word phrases to literally they really don’t make sense. Idioms, grammatical syntax’s.
i meant that the two phrase although similar describe two different perceptions of the brain. “in your head” implies isolated such as the boundaries marina discussed, the brain isolated in the skull. or “on your mind” the expanse or boundless characteristic of the mind as in beyond limits. i’m not interested in the literal interpretation.
In any case If you are IN the road, May not be so good for ya. SPLAT!
and if your on the road again, you may be Willie Nelson!
George Carlin (RIP) used to have a great fear of getting on a plane. He said he’d rather be IN the plane!
BW, Yes I have seen this pattern but just blew it off. Interesting though.
Marina, Wow great theory. Your insight of words is just amazing. You too BW!
I’m just going to sit here and bask in the glow of your thoughts.
thanks for remembering me.
English is just crazy in its use of prepositions. You can take a ride “on” a train, but you’d think someone was crazy to take a ride “on” a car.
Nick
save a horse…
and call me cowboy…
Your so very right Nick. Whats worse is I learn form people that have it all wrong. I still get laughed at when I mess up.
never end a sentence in a preposition is one I can think of.
Isn’t it;
Save a horse,
Ride a Cowboy?
Also eat a Cowboy.
Whenever I’m taking a flight somewhere, and I hear someone say that it’s time to get on the plane, I say “Are you crazy? I’ll get IN the plane, but I sure as hell ain’t gettin’ ON the plane!”
“Get in the aeroplane” sounds right, not “get on the aeroplane”, has something to do with the “aero”. “Get on the plane” still sounds better than “get in the plane”… maybe just in my head though. I missed all this earlier… interesting. Cheers
Thanks Capt. Jack! I really appreciate it!!!
Yeah, she did look particularly radiant. Maybe her boyfriend just proposed – or something…
Nick
I think its new pad, new puppy, great support from her loyal students, etc. Am I close?
The new videos are very professionally presented. Also, Marina is doing long takes rather than the short choppy ones of times gone by. She has befriended the camera, and has done so beautifully. Great job! I loved your appreciative comments Captain Jack. Now and then, we really do need to express how we feel about our beloved teacher.
I had to look up the word ‘befriended’. I guess it’s a shorten word for ‘become friends’. Humm always learning here.
I think it is important to give feed back to a teacher as to let them know how the lessons are working out for them. I always seem to beg my students for the same thing. The answer is always good and they recommend me to other potential students. So I ask them is there one thing you think I can improve on that would make the learning experience better. Some say its perfect and some say that I need to work on this and that. Which is good to hear so I can alway try to improve my abilities. My goal is to become the best nautical instructor on the planet. Tall order yes, doable yes, easy no.
Marina’s glowing personality just pull me into a subject I really struggle with. Yes at first I was attracted to her beauty that got my attention. But it was her intelligence that kept me here or I would have left months ago. I used to hang around people that where more intelligent that I was. Loved those days! But those friends have moved on and I have lost contact. Today it’s not only Marina but you guys also. Even if Marina left her site I still would be on here every day. Of course Marina would be greatly missed and I would freak out. I would have to goto one of those AA meeting or start a MA meeting.
You guys have also taught me many things. For that I am great full to be in your presents. It’s really all of us that makes this whole learning experience wonderful. I love hearing all the stories about everyone. I get many emails from many of you and we are always talking about interesting stuff. If it wasn’t all of you here I would be hard pressed to keep visiting also. Thanks everyone for your friendship and contribution to HFW.
Jack

How cool is all of the above
VERY 
Boys;
Marina is a VERY sweet and Lovely Person. BUT lets keep in mind she is a Internet star doing a Job. Making videos and having some fun. Interacting with us for….Fun. Lets try and keep reality and fantasy separated. Or you will be sure to be disappointed and crushed. In her REAL life, It is very different and she will be first to say that she whats to keep the two separated. ( Just my thoughts not hers )
Lets have fun and make her a big star doing it.
Most hated
RRR
captain Jack you suck !
Must get real lonely out at sea .
If you’ve ever had an impact on anything ever it will be a total miracle, or accident, oh not talking about the impact you make on your toilet seat, ’cause you’re not worthy of being hooked-up to the same public sewer system as Capt. Jack.
Menudo? wasn’t that he name of Ricky Martin’s boy band?
**Marina** Ok something broke. I just received and email for your post Hair of the Dog about 19 minutes ago. Its 23 hours late. It used to take 15 minutes or so. What happened?
Yea I just got mine too
tres!
I think they only go out like once a night.. 5pm PST or so.. so if I upload after 5pm.. then you won’t get it until the next day.
Oh Ok that makes perfect sense.
Now we know not to use email as an immediate indicator of your new posts. Will just have to use the “Elite Panda” force to predict the next lesson. 
“Use the force Luke, use the force!”
Trying to compress this latest video and it keeps failing! Arrggghhh!! And it’s the special 200th video you were all taking about! Hopefully it will be up within an hour or so.
Ok, great Marina. I can wait. I was just getting ready to head out the door to get dinner but I’ll just sit here and wait, while putting pressure on you to finish. hehehe *Hey try rebooting your computer* sometimes the computers memory leaks or get corrupted a bit.
“Arrggghhh!!” Oh you a pirate today? LOL. I feel your pain! I wish the darn computer would just work!
Shiver MY timbers!
NOPE!!!
Is anybody else having problems with the smiley faces not working.
Sorry, should have put it here.
NOPE!!!
ok lets see I can’t any of them to work. I just rebooted my computer too.
I found out the problem Mike. You didn’t pay your smiley bill! They pulled the plug on you!
I think you can go to Wal-Mart and pick up those discount smileys. 
Not too bad but they are old school. And at least they are homemade! 
Damn, that didn’t work. The darn site read my old school smileys and converted them. Oh well you get the point……
Mine are good on Firefox,
what’s your platform?
You may need to blow up
your hotforwords cookies.
When you accept the new
cookies, this should force
an update check and the
smileys data should come
back. If that doesn’t work,
there are other ways to
restore the emoticons,
If the file is missing or
corrupted, that’s the
fastest wasy I know
to get it back.
Good luck
I am using ie7 and MSN. I have cleaned out all of my history, cookies, and anything else I can think of but they still won’t work. They did earlier today so I don;t know.
Might just be my mouse. I switched computers and they are working on this on.
New mouse tommorrow 
I just uploaded firefox on the day that they were trying to set the record and I found out that there are issues concerning safety.
I just used it today and after I was done I used norton360 for a complete scan and there was a virus. I should have wrote it down for reference.. I think is had “star’ as part of it’s name.
Marina, thought you and the others might enjoy this, the “World’s Ugliest Dog Contest”.

Hi Marina,
Word Request: catawampus (sp?) unsure
If you could let out the info on this one that would be bonza.
Thank you
Catywampus, heard it used
again – can’t spell it, best shot
best definition is that it means
“out of skew”, misaligned
I’m sure it has more meanings
than those two.
Good request, dude
Hi Marina
I was wondering what is the origin of tenderhooks, as in “to be kept on tenderhooks”?
Thanks
Dec
Dec, I believe it’s “TENTer’s hooks”, the hooks that go in the grommets that stretch a tent tightly, so it would be like you are stretched tight, pulled in all different directions at once…. In the old days when tents were made out of canvas they had to be stretched tightly to keep rain out.. and if you touched the canvas it would leak inside the tent…. ah, the good old days…
You’re wrong!
Ok, now you sound like my wife!
I found no explanation in Websters on tenderhooks. But I did find one on tenterhooks.:)
You’re right…It’s tenterhooks, but I know the origin has something to do with weaving!
Tenderfott.
legal tender
tender mercies,
tenderloins, ummm..
that’s a good place
to stop
DoH! tenderfOOt
I read books often. But my sister reads books oftender.
i’ve always thought it was tenderhooks, too…but the reasonably legitimate sites i’ve perused all indicate it’s tenterhooks…
oh, well, camping’s alright…
with the right company…
Yay! I got one right! My hangover remedy is (!) never drink cheap whiskey – go with a single malt Scotch, some good Cuban rum or Russian Vodka. Everclear is good too. Also never mix drinks – no rum and whiskey, no beer and wine…
Just out of curiosity, but what’s your favorite libation Marina?
COME ON!!!
Marina is from the land of Vodkya!
I doubt she drinks single malt…
maybe a little pink squirrel?
It’s sort of random but could you look into the origin of “dude”?
Origin of Dude?
Recently took the place of , Man in the vernacular.
Really stoned Surfers could never remember names. ie, Hey Dude, got any herb? Give me a ride, Dude. That Dude is so wasted.
Dude, That Be-och is Smoke’n. Or the ever so great, (What are you doing ) is replaced by, Dude? or DUDE!!…?
With the appropriate hand jesters, ” Dude ” Can get your point across to even the most intoxicated.
Later, Dude.
Dude??!
Dude was used by cowboys a
l-o-n-g time before the California
surf culture snatched it in the 60’s
Dudes & wranglers (not the blue jeans)
tend the herds on the prairies and
plains. Shhhh,might stampede the herd
If you want to meet a lot of dudes, try a dude ranch. Not to be confused with a chicken ranch, where the ladies aim to please…
I am currently wondering about the words, “Flea, Tick, and Mite”. Seeing as I am currently in an infested home of fleas, I am curious.
Now, pardon me, I am about to go squish some more of the buggers.
Dear Teacher,
I have two suggestions. How about the expression, “Two bites of the apple.”? I understand it’s related to the saying, “Two flips of the coin.”
While on the subject of second chances how about some research on the origin of the expression “Hump day”. It’s been a long work week!
Cheers,
hump day,
hump in the road,
one hump or two?
what the heck is a dromedary?
Dromedary, dromedary is a type of camel.
http://www.thefreedictionary.com/camel
Same as Marina!
Right! so the dromedary is a one-hump camel.
Don’t settle for a static photo. Try a videodromedary.
Hey Marina
I want to make a wordrequest. With the European football cup final coming up this Sunday I wanna’ know the orgin of the word “Soccer” (cause’ it’s quite obvious where the word football comes from). 
Woo, i got it right.
As for homework, I actually watched a British show called Brainiac a while ago, which tests various beliefs and myths (kind of like Mythbusters, if you’ve seen that). in one episode they tested a bunch of remedies for hangovers, and when the subject tried drinking a tall glass of water before going to bed after drinking, he had no hangover at all in the morning.
I don’t drink, so I haven’t tried it, but since a hangover is just dehydration it makes sense.
Wasn’t there a mustachioed superhero named Brainiac?
Hello teacher,
I’ve always wanted to know the origin of the word hacker. I’ve always been one myself, sorry to say, and I never quite figured out where the word actually came from. A disgrace, I know.
Thanks.
Hacker? ummm… what
hacks have you worked?
My first was a trojan horse
called “The Phantom”.
This was 35 years ago
and on an NCR mainframe.
It cleared out all memory arrays
(effectively stopping all work)
and then echoed a message
to every console which read:
“I am the Phantom program
Catch me if you can”.
Then it would reseed a
time between 30 seconds
and 30 days to restart,
rename itself, and go
dormant until the next
call (no resident memory).
When they dismantled the
core bubble memory, to
locate and remove it,
it was hitting about
2-3 times a day. Whoops.
Two hour after they rebooted,
it was back. Phantom could
sense logic probes through
a sophisticated reference
file, kind of like virus scan
tech of today. At the first
probe, it called a computer
in another city, and copied
itself along with a set of
instructions to call back
in a week and reinsert itself,
trying indefinitely if no answer
I was a minor – left no
tracks – didn’t get caught.
I wouldn’t even try that
today – no way
Clock speed was slower,
tiny, narrow bandwidth,
Phantom was a hack,
more inconvenience
than viral.
I used to play in traffic
too, so what?
Caught you, i knew you would have to boast eventually. What you doing boasting or complaining?
more nostalgia than anything…
remember 8″ disk drives?
that was a BIG deal at the time…
Hey Marina – Speaking of Shakespeare, how about doing a lesson on words coined by Shakespeare? I believe there are quite a few of them.
Like ‘jet-set’.
Actually, I’ve started going through all my Shakespeare just to footnote the phrases still in use today. I started with Julius Caesar (an old favorite) and here’s the list:
Act I, scene 2 “Beware the Ides of March”
Act I, scene 2 “…it was Greek to me”
Act II, scene 2 “A coward dies a thousand deaths, the Valiant, once”
Act III, scene 1 “Et tu. Brute?”
Act III, scene 1 “Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war”
Act III, scene 2 “Friends, Romans, countrymen. Lend me your ears. I have come to bury Caesar not praise him”
It’ll take awhile to get around to them all, but I did Julius Caesar in one day. I could probably use some help….
The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars but in our selves that we are underlings. – Cassius
Yeah, great play.
Quite a few movie titles have been pirated from lines in Shakespeare plays. It might be fun to gather a list of them.
Hello My Dear Teacher,
It was reported today, ‘Sharapova Stunned by 154th-Ranked Kudryavtseva’
Could you look into the origin of the word tennis and does it have anything to do with the number ten? This could be a two lesson request as the number ten itself seems to be mysterious. Lots of words contain the number ten, but may not have anything to do with the number; e.g. tent?
Thank you, and as requested, I’m being good
P.S.
I reviewed your Love
video and saw that you mentioned that tennis was imported from France. Perhaps, the origin of the number ten might be an intensive lesson as there are many more possibilities. Some other words that contain the letters “ten”, and does it have anything to do with the number ten?
often, tennis, attention, tendon, tenable, pretend, Lieutenant.
Then, of course there are the many uses with the number ten as in
Ten Commandments and 10-4 and so on.
I would like to learn the origin of the word jacuzzi.
I always wanted to know about the word Mannequin (did I spell that right?) Like where did it come from and all that jazz.
where dose the words yes @ no come from or why ist yes @ no.
Marina have you tried these for what you are looking for in pinup girls.
http://www.rainfall.com/posters/pinups/catalog1.htm
Where did we start using “boo” as an affectionate term for another person?
Do you mean boo or beau. I know we us beau alot refering to a lover.
Right, beau exists too.
But I’m talking about boo as in Chris Brown’s song, “My Boo.”
Both are referring to the same thing. Maybe they’re related?
That would make a good one to investigate. I’ve just never heard of it spelled that way. I don’t read very many books. Good luck with your request.
Mike
Or have heard Chris Brown sing my mistake about the book and song.
@ tayljim your other youtube video didn’t work either. I think this is what you want
http://youtube.com/watch?v=GZAGsOJnQRo
Thanks, don’t no what I did wrong, checked the third posting
over before submitting it and didn’t see any errors
It was the ie after the http:// the rest of it was just fine.
By the way that was a cool video.
Hi tayljim,
I hope you don’t think I am too pedantic
Here is a screen shot of the errors.
Hope this helps you.

I’ve noticed sometimes the HTML
tweaks don’t take. I always close
my sets, though so I dunno the bug!
Mine did the same thing as his,
took you to the index (somehow
it truncates the string suffix)?
a lot of sleep and water
Marina, what if it’s a hairless dog???
Then you want get a cure for what ailes you. Might have to wear the whole dog on your sore or bobo. That was a good one sniperskaya
I think then you just soak the dog’s foot in hot water for a few minutes then drink the water, works almost as well!
Teach is there a problem with the avatars or is it just me? My PC
ow – dog foot water!
sounds like more
Shake-spear
Marina would you mind if I posted a joke? It’s not a contriversal joke.
Blick! Poopy paw juice!
You might want to look at tayljims video on coke and rum. It has a lot of pinup pictures of ladies like you were looking for.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=GZAGsOJnQRo
Thanks Marina, but I’ll have to take your word on that…
In the Orient, they eat dogs… and snakes… snakes are supposed to be an aphroidsiac – which I can NOT understand – I mean, if a beautiful woman won’t do it for you, why the hell would a snake do it for you? And BTW Marina, why are female dogs called “bitch”??? Where did that term originate???
Hmmmm, I’ll pick video answer number 2!
Then not get bit ?
I knew a guy, okay he was basically a drunk, who had a hairless dog, and now I know why…
Hahahahahahahaha!
not that i’m bitchin’, but that’s a bitchin’ question, go here to see the bitchin’ answer, bitc…’er, sniperskaya…
oh, and i think most hairless dogs have hair somewhere…but what’s interestin’ is that the trait is usually dominant…once a breed has it, it spreads naturally through the population…
http://caninebreeds.bulldoginformation.com/hairless-dogs.html
Ok for the homework I like to sleep in the bathtube when I get drunk it’s cool and feels good.
That way if I get sick (like Bob) I can just shower off the next morning clothes and all. 
Another home remedy. 
I am glade I went ahead and watched the fourth video. That is the best one. Sounds like you have a cold or the sniffles. Do you need a mustardplaster
I looked back at some of her old vids and came upon cool and lame.
There was like 6 comments total ?
Try out my new log in name; eGREGious …?
I put that one in my favorites folder on utube. She was just so precious. Now look at the comments we are already up to 113 at my posting.
Very Cool!
Look at this site http://www.hotforwords.com/2007/06/18/dont-be-lame-be-cool/#comment-30059
I love these new interactive videos. It makes us think and if we are wrong then we get scolded just like in a real classroom. Do you paddle
I got it right on the second try 
corporal punishment in schools is banned in most countries, except the US, ‘course…even here there are few states in which it is still legal…
so if you get the vid wrong, capman, go stand with your nose in a corner…
What if the room is round. My son went to school where thy had pods as classrooms. Just completly round
Try to find a corner to pee in:)
Hey that sounds like a Polack joke. Wait a minute, I’M POLISH. Okay, never mind!
dadblast the Feng Shui fanatics…
take all the fun outta learnin’…
nose to the chalkboard, then…
unless all they have is projectors…and whiteboards…
and don’t pee in public…
unless it’s a public restroom, then stand three feet back from the urinal like the rest of the guys…
Hi Marina , our favorite teacher
I’m a new user .. and I’m italian so sorry for every english mistake.
I want to know the origin of the word “fuck” .. i found something on the web but sounds like a legend and i want to be sure..
In few words .. the legend narrates that in England, a lot of years ago the people can’t have sex without the permission of the King. Only if you were a member of the King’s famiily you can have sex free. When you wanted to have a child , you asked to the King the permission to have sex, and the King gives to you a plaque that you must applied on your door. What was wrote on the plaque? F.U.C.K.
Furnication Under Consent of the King
is it true?
thanks a lot , bye
Ding ding winner: You’re the 3000th to request ” F.U.C.K ”
The word is ;
Acronym…..Fornication Under Consent [of the] King.
Derogatory You are such a Fucker!
Adjective….You are such a fucking Girl.
Noun,………What kind of a Fuck are you?
Verb ……….Are you a Fucking Girl?
All ………….Fuck ya’ Fucking Fucker! Fuck? Fuck!!
This is only a small example of the versatility of ” FUCK.”
Those with very limited vocabulary, A must know .
It is used to convey emotion, FUCK? / FUCK!..etc.
Just by adding Fuck to any sentence, you will be ” Hip and Cool.”
There you go.
#3000 and counting.
Dr. E. Gregious. Lol
oh thanks this is the best way to say “you’re welcome”
go to fornicate yourself man

Madam;
…..Thank you for the kind offer of Fornication,
Perhaps in the future, We can make it a date.

kniffo,
Greetings and welcome. I think the radio show she covered this topic on (Maxim #2 or #4, one of those) was lost when she changed servers. Basically however, it’s been done and is an unlikely candidate for re-run. Still, there are probably other words you’re curious about, so feel free to ask, and don’t worry about the dog. He barks all the time.
hii hotforwords, I have one maybe hard word… Where is the word šiljak (shiljak) coming from?

Thats ok shiljak. Marina knows what you are trying to say. It is all cool. We are one big happy family here.
Where does the word lollygagging come from?
As in “Stop lollygagging and come on!”
lolloygag on a lollipop?
.. and a hey lolly lolly!
Chompin’ at the bit while
sittin’ in traffic bitchin’ about sandbaggers,
honkin’ the horn at all the damn foot-draggers,
and flippin’ the bird to all those lollygaggers
in front of ya…
Since “lolly” refers to one’s tongue, I guess lollygag means to swallow one’s tongue.
How about the word “entropy”. I’ve known the definition of this word for a long time, but I’ve always wanted to know the origin of it. I pose this challenge to you Marina.
the bringing of chaos to order,
usually due to heat – good
question (origin). Do you
think it might be Latin?
I’m not sure
Drinking alcohol actually makes you smarter. Brain cells are like a herd of buffalo, and alcohol is like the predator stalking the herd. The predator naturally goes after the weaker and slower members of the herd, and kills them off, leaving the main body of the herd stronger and swifter as a result. Likewise, alcohol kills the slow and the weak brain cells, which is why when we drink to excess we always feel much smarter than when we’re sober.
I’m not going to get buffaloed into believing that! I’m much too smart…
I herd that. Nice usage!
Who is the weaker? The Importance of family , working together gives strength.
national geographic ended up doing a special on that youtube video.
I’ll agree with you prospero. You can’t tell a drunk anything. He thinks he knows it all.
Especially when it comes time to take his car keys. 
if he doesn’t lose ‘em, first!!
By any chance are you a painter by trade?
Caught a painter in a closet having a beer,
He said it counteracts the paint fumes.
How true how true
A lady walked into her living room when the painter was setting up to do the ceiling, and there she saw a pint bottle of Jack Daniels sitting on the stepladder. Noticing that she had seen his whiskey, the painter quickly opened it and poured out three three quick spurts into the paint bucket as if measuring an exact amount. Then he stirred it, gave the paint a long sniff as if analyzing all its contents, and closed the bottle. “Now it’s ready,” he said as he poured some out into the roller pan. “This stuff’s much cheaper than the thinner they sell at the paint store, and it works better, too” he said as he hastily put the bottle in his toolbox.
Have you seen a painting by Dali? More than beer going on there. I’ve always like surrealism in both visuals and stories.
Oh, I almost forgot, yes urine is sterile as you pass it but you can’t convince people of that fact.
I’ve been to Figueres, Spain. That’s where Dali built a museum to himself. Some of Dali’s works are true masterpieces, though he compromises aesthetics sometimes with the little political figures that sometimes intrude otherwise purely surreal landscapes. My favorite is The Metamorphosis of Narcissus (political figures notwithstanding). But there are a number of other great paintings which I could cite. The Temptation of St. Anthony is a fave. If you like melting clocks, autocannibalism, and crutches, you’re bound to like Dali.
They say you can’t rollerskate in a buffalo herd. Maybe if you get stone drunk first, you actually can.

Actually i’m not an authority in hangover therapy but i know an old,classical Russian remedy -опохмелитсьа- (read opahmelitsa) according to which the best remedy to recover your lost lucidity and consciousness is drinking a well determined and required quantity of vodka 
Honestly i don’t know if you had better to try this therapy since it works just with Russians….the best thing is never getting drunk… i think that Marina would quote ”getting drunk is not sexy”… if you are interested, i’d rather give you some suggestions in order to cure your wounds without having recourse to dog hair;try the Samarithan’s therapy with wine as disinfectant and olive oil as lenitive,it wonderfully works!,if you think that this remedy is quite expensive try sulphur….it doesn’t smell that nice but it was the most widespread remedy on the battlefields in ancient times….. P.S.-I’d like so much to know which is Marina’s favourite kind of wine!
I agree with most of what you said, the English part anyway.
While getting drunk is not sexy, it can often lead to sex.
You need to watch Beerfest, the movie. It’s like a warning
melikadothechacha,thank you very much for replying,i hope that one day you will even agree with what i say in Russian,if you will try to follow capman’s decision…
thanks for the suggestion,as soon as i can i’m going to watch Beerfest 
As a renowned connoisseur of wine, I can tell you my favorite. CHILLED.
So if your favourite is chilled, you should try ”passito” even if this is quite rare to be found….anyway it’s nice
to meet another connaisseur en vins!

Thanks,

sweet, I knew it was #2
I remember coming across a couple of references of ‘hair of the dog that bit ya’ as a form of remedy. That was a great Interactive video Marina, well done!!
The best thing for a hangover, is to drink lots of alcohol first
The rubbing kind
No just kidding. Tried it when I was younger. Nasty stuff. 
Yup! for the best hangover – LOL
The best hangover remedy is:
Water/juice
Aspirin
Pizza
Sleep
The best hangover remedy is a sobering thought.
I once heard that drinking Rum and Coke does not produce a hangover, because rum is made from sugar and Coke is full of it.
Anyway, “Hair of the Dog” is no friend of mine as it’s the reason my wife won’t agree to me keeping a dog, despite the fact that I’m always tripping up over her hairs in the carpet.
Life’s like that; you can reason with a dog but not with a woman.
The answer is the basis for “homeopathy” – “like cures like”.
I guess that wine was the basis for “holistic” healing. Yeah, right.
Warren believe it or not when we were small my mother would put urin in our ears for an earache then followed with a cotton ball.
Man the things our parents used to give to us when we were little. I can remember drinkning kerosene and sugar for some ailness. I don’t remember which one though. I guess she loved us or was a physcho. No just kidding about the physcho part. But I guess it would be called home remedies. 
Urine, or urea, is a sterile solution initially.
In the pioneer days, fresh urine was often
used as a lavage treatment for open wounds.
Water, untreated, was a guaranteed infection,
so ureic acid was used as an antiseptic!
Lost a LOT of pioneers from bad medicine.
A dog’s saliva is better, anyway.
The dreams that you had were definately “sweet dreams”.

Bob Careful with comments like that or you will suffer the wrath of ERRINF!!!!
Actually, Bob’s comments could lead to him having an unhappy, unsatisfied wife. I suppose I could yell at him to give her an orgasm, just like I harped into prospero the other day to go satisfy a woman rather than waste his time thinking about me. But I doubt that will help any. Men who don’t get women just don’t get women. They probably don’t even get the double entendre I used in the last line.
And I ditched the F so that my handle here is just Errin here. My ‘wrath’ is a bit of a show, as I am a bit of a showman. But hey, I’m always willing to bruise a few male egos out there. It’s what seperates the men from the boys. Plus certain women find it a turn on.

Come on chacha, Marina doesn’t love us, It’s pure LUST!
I like tomato juice and beer miked. It’s a good drink.
Before going to bed on a libationary night take 1 (or 2) Bayer asprin as you’re going to bed. Not only does this spare you from a hangover it actually cured me of hangovers completely & I don’t even use the asrpin trick anymore–haven’t had one in 15+ years. Some of these nights I’ve drunk enough to float captainjack’s boat.
In the restaurant business people often asked if Menudo was truly a cure for hangovers and I would say “absolutely” because putting anything soothing and neutral into your system helps, along with some food (not a drink) that has a little sugar.
Don’t use bars much anymore the last time I drank a lot was wine with dinner.
Never ask a bartender how to cure a hangover (they don’t know) they’ll just say ‘when I drink…’, but turn and ask any cutomer in a bar & you’ll get lists of remedies.<—Funny how the world works…
Ahhh<, for the sake of full disclosure it might have been a bit more than just wine at dinner, but I’m sticking to the above story.
Bar-tenders will tell you about the “Hair of the Dog” just to sell you another drink.
Anyway, I left my tender down at the dock.
Cool! When I see this phrase, I think of the awesome Nazareth song called ‘Hair Of The Dog’, a favorite of mine. Here’s it’s lyrics:
Heart breaker, soul shaker
I’ve been told about you
Steamroller, midnight stroller
What they’ve been saying must be true
Red hot mama
Velvet charmer
Time’s come to pay your dues
Now you’re messin’ with a
A son of a bitch
Now you’re messin’ with a son of a bitch
Now you’re messin’ with a
A son of a bitch
Now you’re messin’ with a son of a bitch
Talkin’ jivey, poison ivy
You ain’t gonna cling to me
Man taker, born faker
I ain’t so blind I can’t see
Red hot mama
Velvet charmer
Time’s come to pay your dues
Now you’re messin’ with a
A son of a bitch
Now you’re messin’ with a son of a bitch
Now you’re messin’ with a
A son of a bitch
Now you’re messin’ with a son of a bitch
What’s even cooler is that my friend Timothy, who also functions as my live sound engineer for music gigs, was working a show for a friend a few weeks back wherein the singer from Nazareth was performing some solo stuff. After the show was over, he went out of his way to find my friend Tim to compliment him on doing such a good job of making his set sound good. The coolest part was that he told Tim that it sounded like ‘tits’, which is actually a huge compliment coming from a drunken Scotsman, apparently. Peace, Errin : )
I’ve used that saying over the years. Guys know that to mean the best.
That is a great song errin.
I glad you sung the lyrics for us, in a sense. I always liked Nazareth when I was younger and still do 
Come on errin we are not all malechovanist pigs. Talk to us. I not trying to come on to you I am to old for you anyway.
You got that right about the sand! It has saved me more than once!

They knew they would need a elixir to fix themselves up the next day so they could make some more. 
Surefire cure for a hangover, Marina:
First you take a glass of nearly frozen unstrained tomato juice, you plop a couple of raw oysters in there and you drink it down. Breathe deeply. Next you take a mound, and I mean a mound of sweetbreads. Saute ‘em with some chestnuts and Canadian bacon. Finally, biscuits, big biscuits smothered in gravy. Now this is where it gets tricky, you’re gonna needs some anchovies….
That should do it.
Where do you get these chestnuts? – LOL
Throw in a raw egg and some
worcstershire sauce,
Make the biscuits with sausage gravy,

Hi Marina – here’s my suggestion. It comes (no pun intended) from my wife. Good etymology, and I suspect it’d make good video: dildo.

I heard the the music group -Steely Dan- took that name from an ad about dildo’s.
I wasn’t stuttering. I meant to type ‘that the”.
no, it is a reference to naked lunch by william burroughs.
specifically, a reference to a dildo in the book naked lunch by william burroughs. odd book.
Buz-ard you posted buzzword replied on June 27th, 2008 12:00 pm:
i meant that the two phrase although similar describe two different perceptions of the brain. “in your head” implies isolated such as the boundaries marina discussed, the brain isolated in the skull. or “on your mind” the expanse or boundless characteristic of the mind as in beyond limits. i’m not interested in the literal interpretation.
Yes; That is the same problem I had with, ( something and nothing. ) As you see with ( IN and ON ) ?? Madding?

Funny! In German you call a hangover a “Kater”, which literally means a “cat”. So quite funny that you get rid of it with a “hair of the dog”!
Yeah! I was right haha
Seems really weird to me to literally use the hair of the dog — I figured it was a metaphor to “use the poison that hurt you” or something to that effect — in your example, having another drink in the morning after drinking all night.
Look at snake venum for example. If a snake bites you they use a antivenum made from the same kind of snake that bit you for the cure. Mostly all of your ativiruses are made from a weaker form of the virus itself.
Same with all inoculations. Measles, polio, etc.
Thanks Geronimo for the back up. I knew there was more I wanted to add but had a brain fart
I should have posted here sooner. Seems that we had the same idea.
I like your gravatar- clever.
I don’t get hangovers very often. maybe either 10 molson Canadians or 10 labbatt blues might do me in. I’m not really a heavy drinker but I drink big once in a while depending where I’m at. The last thing I need is a DUI. I can’t afford that.

hmm – adults?
I would like to request a word please. How did the the word Dominatrix come to be? I know what it means, but such a strange twist. Not too many words end with an “x”. Thanks, Singsongdingdong.
Hi Marina,
This was an easy one.
I’ve tried several hangover remedies with varying degrees of success.
I’ll list them in chronological order:
1.) a Bloody Mary for breakfast
2.) a shot of hard liquor followed in 2 minutes by 2 shots of pickle juice
3.) a mimosa followed by a cup of coffee, black
4.) a pint of Gatorade
5.) ride my bike (must sprint HARD!) for at least 4 miles to flush the bloodstream and jumpstart the sweat glands and drink at least a quart of water during the ride
6.) two aspirin and a tall glass of water taken before bed
In every case, someone I trusted SWORE by their favorite remedy when it was recommended.
Most of them made me hurl! But #4 and #5 gave limited success (depending on whether I was careful to select only beer, or only wine, or only hard liquor, but not mix them during the party; having beer AND wine the same night, and especially champagne, makes for a sure-fire bad hangover tomorrow).
#6 works every time for me, especially if I start drinking water at the first moment I realize that my ability to walk or speak is significantly impaired.
I guess I should watch it again to see what happens when I pick the wrong answers. Great job. Marina! 5 stars.
Nazdorovye! Stoly shots all around.
Wine, then beer? Never fear.
Beer, then wine? Nein! Nein! Nein!
999 being the number used in the UK to call the emergency services.
Beer then wine are never fine
Wine then beer are very dear
That’s interesting, okay4now. The way I heard it was
Wine, then beer? Never fear.
Beer, then wine? Nein! Nein!
I thought about your version for a bit, and it seemed to me that rhyming “wine” with “fine” might become a possible avenue of mixups, especially when semi-plastered. No matter, though. One time is all it takes before I start saying “Never again!” while “steering the porcelain bus.”
Thanks for responding!
Ok I forgot the “/”.
Neat effect though! 
I have an idea. She should party with us, fri, here, saaaay 9ish?
How about a live chat?
Hey pagedoll whaaaaassssssuuuuuup! How about that big sand lot you play in all the time
If you fall down drunk it wouldn’t hurt or as bad. 
Yea buy that car-go boat and we all can gather on it.
Whaaaassuuuuup Mike?
If we get together for a party, I’ll need to know which coast to start riding my bike toward a couple days in advance! I only use my car for emergencies like school or work. My learjet’s in the shop.
capman911,
Yes, I think most people have one home remedy or another up their sleeve. I’ve had urine in my ear too.
you should do the word (or phrase rather) “teachers pet”
I thought you were trying to help me out there for a second. I thought you said that she should “do the teacher’s pet” (and, for the record, I am the still reigning teacher’s pet, since the Hot video).
It’s getting annoying, you playing this cracked record over and over.
