Hi Marina,
I was watching The Bank Job last night (Jason Statham…oooh laaa laaa ) and heard the phrase “BELLY UP”. Of course, that got me wondering where Belly Up comes from….I think I know, but can you investigate that?
Can a person go belly up or just businesses? I’m very curious.
While in the Navy ( before the split up of the USSR ) I was preparing for a multi unit operation. An Op-plan was published with all the details of the operation, and it was classified SECRET.
While working with it one day ( in a sealed room with no windows ) I noticed that though the Op-plan was SECRET, all the paragraphs I’d read had a “U” in front, meaning they were UNCLASSIFIED ( a paragraph with CONFIDENTIAL information would have a “C” in front, a paragraph with something actually SECRET would have an “S” ).
While taking a break I paged through the Op-plan looking for any sections that were actually classified, and only found two. One was CONFIDENTIAL and I honestly don’t remember what it was. The other actually had an “S” in front. This one I remember verbatim:
“In the event of an actual armed conflict our probable adversary would be the Soviet Union or a Soviet Bloc ally.”
Was there anyone in the 80’s - on either side - who didn’t know this?
Yes, I could be court-martialed for revealing this, but they would have to admit that some twit had classified it in the first place. I think my pension is safe.
Oh thanks for that one Orion! Now I have to turn you in because I have this knowledge. Do you know the amount of paperwork I have to fill out? Well your lucky, because I hate doing paperwork so your secret is save with me. But I think NSA’s buddy’s have recored your message and will be contacting your shortly. Im just kidding about them contacting you…
I too seen many documents that where classified SECRET that I thought didn’t need that classification. My shipmates would joke and laugh at many of the classification. Then there where other documents that should have been classified SECRET and weren’t. Many times they where old documents. Sometime there is a date code of when the document was published.
Security was so loose, I thought a Russian spy could just walk up and say, “Hey Im your friendly neighborhood spy and I was wondering if you had any leftover secret documents I can get from you?” “Why sure let me get the round file and see what we have here.”
Now here is something you would find interesting. The recipe file box was classified information and had to be locked up every night. There is good reason for this. Now think about that one for a moment.

If your sister is in to a guy named John and he doesn’t even know about it, that is not love; That is infatuation. There’s a difference between a crush and real love… real love is reciprocated, whereas a crush is usually one-sided. Those who confuse their infatuation with real love usually end up getting a hard lesson in human nature, as the object of their affection will most likely reject them. For instance, if John has not interacted with your sister much, and hasn’t even gone out with her, he might be a little put off by all the interest in him. And, though it may sound a little crude, people need to spend a little time together in bed before they really commit to the whole love thing, at least that’s how a lot of women are (and some men).
Were this a real situation and not a hypothetical one, I would advise your sister to tone down her infatuation and wait to get to know John better before falling head over heels for him. It should also be expressed to John that she ‘likes’ him rather than that she ‘loves’ him. It’s even cool to express that she has a crush on him, though she might not want to come on too strong. Crushes and infatuation are cool (after all, they are very romantic in their own way), but one has to be smart with their crushes else risk losing the object of their desire. Maybe your sister should just seduce John and let him figure it all out in due time. All’s fair in love and war…
As for secrets, I have already (slightly) shared my secret of being a skilled fantasist when it comes to exploring a certain dark corner of human sexuality. Admittedly, it is an open secret, because there is no shame to my game. Still, I won’t go into further detail, as this is not quite the website for such discussions. Peace and love, Errin : )

There is one easy way to define Love;
Love; You would die for Her.
Lust ; You want Her body and sex the hell out of Her.
Friend; You want her body but, She doesn’t think of you like that.
Teacher; You want Her body.
You don’t really love someone unless you are prepared to allow them the freedom to do something you disapprove of, even if their doing so means that you can never see them again.
Marina , Why not just get a rock and have it chrome plated/ electroplated and just give it a toss, and say there take that you little witch. Then the only question would be witch little witch you would toss. Way i see it you can’t do without the little witches
I not only spanked my kids, I spanked them again if they complained about the punishment, or said I was unfair. We never spanked them without thoroughly explaining why they were being punished and what we expected from them. They never threw tantrums, by the time they could form sentences, and to this day I am always told what great daughters I have. They are mostly grown now and I had no major problems with them, as I thought I would in their teen years. They argue about who’s clothes are whose with each other, but that’s about the worst of it. I know they wouldn’t have turned out so well if we hadn’t of given the tough love. One time when my daughter Asia was 4, she hit her little sister and immediately knew she was in trouble, she she walked over to me and turned around and bent over. That was a tough spanking to give, but I had to be consistent, since we had a rule . I am very close with all three and and they have told me that they are thankful for their upbringing, when they see other kids acting up, and the parents act like it’s out of their hands. I don’t believe in this time out stuff, especially when the child is still allowed to throw a fit. All they do is eventually calm down and then they are set free with no real consequences for the the bad behavior.
Here is my daughter Asia, to put a face with the name.
lol. cool. looks like she’s got some funny stuff. like, “dad playing video games…I am genetically doomed to never grow up”, “my dad is the meanest dad ever.” haha. :PP

again (short version) My hat’s off to you geronimo.
That was a tough spanking to give,
They (spankings) are & should never be easy to administer. Your daughter is a “jem”. Nice looking, with character, which doesn’t just happen. Jems are formed, but are valued for their rarity.
“Spanking” is debatable. I agree with you, but I made it a point to never spank when angry. I can count on one hand the number of times I had to do the corporal punishment thing to each of my three kids. The most memorable… having to discipline my only daughter for a temper tantrum & defiance. I was angry, I put her over my lap & hit my own hand, held over her derier, to protect her from my wrath. Funny, she cried more that time & I think it was that one time, that seems to have had the biggest impact on her inappropriate behavior. She is just married now & her new hubby seems to be, like my daughter, very happy.
Sounds like you haven’t grown up yet either…
geronimo replied on July 26th, 2008 12:31 pm:
Yeah, I never said I was mature, just well behaved. (mostly)
your daughter is awesome - don’t let her go on America’s Got Talent ’cause the Hoff will hit on her…
i’m impressed, really…
the ex & i gave spankings when i was still there - or at least i did; now she grounds them or uses the timeout thing…too late for the 16-yr-old, but my 10-yr-old is the sweetest kid i know…
take care, and thanks for sharing -

geronimo replied on July 26th, 2008 1:55 pm:
Thanks Nudder! My wife and I split up about 5 years ago, but the one thing we always agreed on was how to raise the girls. That makes a huge difference in the eyes of the kids. If the parents don’t agree on that, then they immediately see that the rules are one parents opinion and not written in stone. Kids pick up on these things quickly and will pit one parent against the other if they see the opportunity.

I wrote a long comment, but it won’t let me post it. Any one know why? Is there a word limit?
did you put a few links in it? because with wordpress you have the option to review comments first (if they, for example, contain more than a certain number of links), and then you can permit them to be posted (”moderate” them; in this case it should read “comment is awaiting moderation” right after you were trying to post it.). this helps to prevent spam since spam often contains a lot of links.

The name given, by players of the game CoD4, to the assault rifle mounted grenade launcher do to the fact that it is seen as requiring little skill to use and the fact that it is, in fact, a tube.
but what i mean with noobtube is when you watch a noob playing, when you are not in the game( looking trough killcam or spectator) thats what i mend with noobtube, can you make a video cause everybody uses it the wrong way ( i just blurred the word out when i was playing on cod and just saw a video on youTUBE)

My secret is a Russian one: For five months 1988-1989 my phone in Connecticut was wiretapped by FBI Counter-Intelligence. The reason was that the CIA was managing my protective surveillance (using FBI since I was inside the USA) after the NSA intercepted an intelligence “shopping list” (WITH MY NAME ON IT AND MY BOOK ON HYPERSONICS) transmitted from KGB headquarters “Moscow Centeral” to the KGB station chief in Washington. His name was Alexi Moryakov. I had talked with Alexi once about Soviet hypersonics and I liked him. His “cover” at Washington was “Science attache”. But, in fact, this smart, funny and capable 35 year old was a brigader general in the KGB and station chief for all of North America- from Mexico City to the North Pole! The FBI agent in charge of protecting me asked me if I would help the FBI bust Moryakov. Because of my work at the 1987 Paris Air Show (video director for Aviation Week Magazine) I knew already that things in Eastern Europe were going against the Soviets. And I didn’t think that “decapitating” Soviet intelligence in Washington at that time was smart. So I said no to helping bust the KGB man in Washington (who it turned out had developed traiters in both the FBI (Howard) and CIA (Ames) and was using there betrayal of Russian spies for the USA and this caused the murder of some 20 American spies in the Soviet Union.
I am really proud of you, Marina I love you Marina (and your work-mates who produce HotForWords) because you are so hard working and nice and happy…and for a Russian woman to have come as far as you is so amazing. Thank you for being you! Ochen Spaceeba, vwi ochen prekasniya devochka! Dzhon

Politicians don’t use this word! I want leaders who are responsible to the people. What is the origin of the word, Responsible?
PPS: Sorry for spelling mistakes in “my secret” post above. I’ve been writing my novel all day and it’s 1am and I’m burned out!
In case you think I’m making the above up, the FBI told me I was one of the most popular American writers to be published in the Soviet military’s classified compendium of western military science

There is one easy way to define Love;
Love; You would die for Her.
Lust ; You want Her body and sex the hell out of Her.
Friend; You want her body but, She doesn’t think of you like that.
Teacher; You want Her body.

As Chris Rock said.. you haven’t been in love until you’ve contemplated murder!
You don’t really love someone unless you are prepared to allow them the freedom to do something you disapprove of, even if their doing so means that you can never see them again.
Marina , Why not just get a rock and have it chrome plated/ electroplated and just give it a toss, and say there take that you little witch. Then the only question would be witch little witch you would toss. Way i see it you can’t do without the little witches
Marina, the man is the mind the of female, the female is the mind of the male, and at certain times they are each the half of each other.
Word request: delusion

Marina, what’s the origin of ‘dude’? And what was it’s original meaning?
Keep up the great work!
THE dude.

I not only spanked my kids, I spanked them again if they complained about the punishment, or said I was unfair. We never spanked them without thoroughly explaining why they were being punished and what we expected from them. They never threw tantrums, by the time they could form sentences, and to this day I am always told what great daughters I have. They are mostly grown now and I had no major problems with them, as I thought I would in their teen years. They argue about who’s clothes are whose with each other, but that’s about the worst of it. I know they wouldn’t have turned out so well if we hadn’t of given the tough love. One time when my daughter Asia was 4, she hit her little sister and immediately knew she was in trouble, she she walked over to me and turned around and bent over. That was a tough spanking to give, but I had to be consistent, since we had a rule . I am very close with all three and and they have told me that they are thankful for their upbringing, when they see other kids acting up, and the parents act like it’s out of their hands. I don’t believe in this time out stuff, especially when the child is still allowed to throw a fit. All they do is eventually calm down and then they are set free with no real consequences for the the bad behavior.
Here is my daughter Asia, to put a face with the name.

lol. cool. looks like she’s got some funny stuff. like, “dad playing video games…I am genetically doomed to never grow up”, “my dad is the meanest dad ever.” haha. :PP
Dang! I didn’t even know she wrote that!
Did you see her comic on the dream I had? That was word for what really happened.
yeah, seen it. that was funny. dude. “bummed out” … what the hell.
I guess I am not the word smith that she is. I was obviously more than just bummed out.
I spent more than 1/2 hour wrighting a reply & it failed to post LOL.
again (short version) My hat’s off to you geronimo.
They (spankings) are & should never be easy to administer. Your daughter is a “jem”. Nice looking, with character, which doesn’t just happen. Jems are formed, but are valued for their rarity.
“Spanking” is debatable. I agree with you, but I made it a point to never spank when angry. I can count on one hand the number of times I had to do the corporal punishment thing to each of my three kids. The most memorable… having to discipline my only daughter for a temper tantrum & defiance. I was angry, I put her over my lap & hit my own hand, held over her derier, to protect her from my wrath. Funny, she cried more that time & I think it was that one time, that seems to have had the biggest impact on her inappropriate behavior. She is just married now & her new hubby seems to be, like my daughter, very happy.
Sounds like you haven’t grown up yet either…
Yeah, I never said I was mature, just well behaved. (mostly)
you are obviously a devoted & loving dad, ger…
your daughter is awesome - don’t let her go on America’s Got Talent ’cause the Hoff will hit on her…
i’m impressed, really…
the ex & i gave spankings when i was still there - or at least i did; now she grounds them or uses the timeout thing…too late for the 16-yr-old, but my 10-yr-old is the sweetest kid i know…
take care, and thanks for sharing -
tom
Thanks Nudder! My wife and I split up about 5 years ago, but the one thing we always agreed on was how to raise the girls. That makes a huge difference in the eyes of the kids. If the parents don’t agree on that, then they immediately see that the rules are one parents opinion and not written in stone. Kids pick up on these things quickly and will pit one parent against the other if they see the opportunity.
hi marina, your are bright sunny day.
how about the word “JALOPY” as refered to a car.?
Dave
I wrote a long comment, but it won’t let me post it. Any one know why? Is there a word limit?
did you put a few links in it? because with wordpress you have the option to review comments first (if they, for example, contain more than a certain number of links), and then you can permit them to be posted (”moderate” them; in this case it should read “comment is awaiting moderation” right after you were trying to post it.). this helps to prevent spam since spam often contains a lot of links.
It had one link, so I removed it and it still won’t load. I can send these short comments which weird. It won’t even start to load.
Thanks aLx
well, in this case i don’t know why you can’t post it either. :/

what is the origin of mathematics?the word and, if you could, science of;perhaps also later development and most important discoveries (geometry,integrals,game theory, etc.).thank you very much and have a nice day
Don’t keep the secret, Marina!
Please tell us salty dogs the origin of the word ’snorkel’, the thing which allows us to breathe while just below the water. Snorkeling can be fun!
Secretly, after a few beers I fancy myself as a bit of a Ricky Martin on the dance floor, unfortunately at best I’ve been told it’s more of a Ricky Bobby

Here’s an original one. I love Marina. Yeah. I know. There are a thousand comments JUST LIKE THIS ONE. Mum’s the word. Yeah.
i created a word on COD4( a videogame) the word: noobtube i looked my word up and it said:
The name given, by players of the game CoD4, to the assault rifle mounted grenade launcher do to the fact that it is seen as requiring little skill to use and the fact that it is, in fact, a tube.
but what i mean with noobtube is when you watch a noob playing, when you are not in the game( looking trough killcam or spectator) thats what i mend with noobtube, can you make a video cause everybody uses it the wrong way ( i just blurred the word out when i was playing on cod and just saw a video on youTUBE)
Greetings Marina,
What is a magnet made of
And is there any way to remove the magnetism from myself 
How does a magnet work
Hello, everyone! A d*ldo made in Japan in my closet is a skeleton in the closet……….
oh, my…the very idea!!!…
All of things made in Japan are awesome and impeccable.
then bring it out of the closet…
and put it in the nightstand, where it belongs…
I don’t think that a nightstand is a spot where it should be in at night.
Could get funny, fumbling in the dark for a flashlight…
lol…you are right…
mark this day - i said a woman was right…
Tom
Welc*m to my world!!
I don’t think you did, Nud.
This thread seems to be proof of the dictum:-
“There are only two types of people on the internet, men and men pretending to be chicks.”
Remember the Golden Rule.
The first one to mention Japanese webcams gets shot.
Bang Bang
Aaaaaahhhh. (Dies)
i was thinkin’ the same as you about three messages deep…
i’m slow on the uptake, but i get there…
oh, and i guess that means i still haven’t admitted that a woman can be right…
but you can ask your wife before you answer that…
annudder
Jeez, Bob! How DO you come up with all this stuff? You’re truly amazing!
hi marina i was just wondering where the word alcohol or universe/university and the phrase “hum drum” came from?

My secret is a Russian one: For five months 1988-1989 my phone in Connecticut was wiretapped by FBI Counter-Intelligence. The reason was that the CIA was managing my protective surveillance (using FBI since I was inside the USA) after the NSA intercepted an intelligence “shopping list” (WITH MY NAME ON IT AND MY BOOK ON HYPERSONICS) transmitted from KGB headquarters “Moscow Centeral” to the KGB station chief in Washington. His name was Alexi Moryakov. I had talked with Alexi once about Soviet hypersonics and I liked him. His “cover” at Washington was “Science attache”. But, in fact, this smart, funny and capable 35 year old was a brigader general in the KGB and station chief for all of North America- from Mexico City to the North Pole! The FBI agent in charge of protecting me asked me if I would help the FBI bust Moryakov. Because of my work at the 1987 Paris Air Show (video director for Aviation Week Magazine) I knew already that things in Eastern Europe were going against the Soviets. And I didn’t think that “decapitating” Soviet intelligence in Washington at that time was smart. So I said no to helping bust the KGB man in Washington (who it turned out had developed traiters in both the FBI (Howard) and CIA (Ames) and was using there betrayal of Russian spies for the USA and this caused the murder of some 20 American spies in the Soviet Union.
I love you Marina (and your work-mates who produce HotForWords) because you are so hard working and nice and happy…and for a Russian woman to have come as far as you is so amazing. Thank you for being you! Ochen Spaceeba, vwi ochen prekasniya devochka! Dzhon 
I am really proud of you, Marina
PS: Marina, yesterday I wrote the campaign manager for John McCain and shared with him the one word I shared with Barak Obama’s communications people, when they were in laramie last march.
RESPONSIBILITY.
Politicians don’t use this word! I want leaders who are responsible to the people. What is the origin of the word, Responsible?
PPS: Sorry for spelling mistakes in “my secret” post above. I’ve been writing my novel all day and it’s 1am and I’m burned out!
In case you think I’m making the above up, the FBI told me I was one of the most popular American writers to be published in the Soviet military’s classified compendium of western military science
“Voyennaya Aviatsiya i Raketnaya Teknika”

What a great post and secret
It beats the car tipping or window breaking or other secrets I’ve been packing around.
Hi Marina, im really interested about the word “robot”, i just do know it has something to do with work, but i wanna know more…
… so, umm, thats my word request so i hope you will share my interest and use it in one of your great vids.
thx.
Good word choice, A@ron, as the Russian word for “work” is RABOTIYOU. I would guess that the European origin of the word means “worker”
The word “robot” entered english from a play “R.U.R. Robert’s Universal Robots”.
Umm, ehm…
Thats not exactly what i want to know,,,
Yeh, umm and by the way…
…plz stop telling something just like this to us even its truth or not…
…dont u you realise ure just ruining her job?

Just another brick in the wall.

Secrets eh? Sorry dear Teacher, but as a favorite song reminds me:

Where treasure hides
Who shares your bed
And how to catch your foe
Hi Marina, I have always wondered how the word “dork” made its way into English slang. I believe that the original meaning came
