when she screams at 2:24 She reminds me of a zomby from resident evil she does the same sound lmfao and when she echos her self she remindes me of that little girl that says ” Your all going to die in here”
My random lesson selected by “Random Lesson”….I love it. Holy or what, I guess the graphics and all that video work stuff by HOTFORWORDS and “….from the past”; just makes me feel better. keep up the good work, over and over “Hallowed be my name” ACooper
mmmm looking svelte there Marina, or Lithe if you prefer. Wish hotforprofits would show herself off like that rrrrr. Anyways thanks for the remake I like the idea.
Marina here’s a picture of Gorby & Gorby. One part donated by Bob. I wanted to see what the port wine stain would look like on KobeGorby’s little head.
Is “All Hallow’s Eve” an anachronism? Or did the word “even” change to “eve” while the holiday was still called “All Hallow’s Even?” These are the questions that keep me up at night.
Sulfuric acid also loosens dead skin and has the additional benefit of killing live skin if you don’t like the idea of having all that icky skin hanging about you. You wouldn’t need a loofa, either, but you would definitely need a lot of beer.
I agree, you’ll need plenty of beer just to kill the pain. Just a joke I put up like Mijj does just to think your going to a sexy site. She didn’t look bad in her boy panties though.
HOMEWORK: I’m not going to dress up for Halloween this year. Instead, I’m going to carve/scuplt a couple of pumpkins to as much fine detail as I could.
Last year I down loaded some templates for pumpkin carving. I don’t remember the site but you should be able to Google for some pumpkin carving templates.
Hey Marina, great video and scary. You looked like you felt embarrassed when you did the scary scream. By the way since it’s another holiday will you be so nice and send us a Halloween card? Please. Here’s you a Halloween Treat
How does one disable the Co-comment stuff at the bottom of the comment dialog box? Co-comment boxes seems to pop up every time I place the cursor anywhere in the dialog box, even if it is not right near the bottom. It is as maddening as a virus.
Hate it,
Hate it,
Hate it.
Is there any way,
To dissipate it?
If you don’t want it any more just delete it from your control panel. I don’t use it so I don’t know how to turn it off, unless your running firefox then just click on tools and click on add ons and disable it in that section.
I don’t see anything in Control Panel that would be relevant. I don’t think what I do in XP or IE7 is going to change what is obviously coming from HFW’s server. I was hoping there was a user-selectable setting that would allow one to disable the Co-comment feature. It is SO annoying. Help, Marina.
Hey CampKohler, did you look in the add remove section of control panel it should be at the top of the page on the left if your running xp. There you can remove any program that is listed there. Just click on the cocomments program if it is there ans uninstall it.
ok, Marina Wordbuster … i have another vid for you .. this time it’s to tickle your mind rather than your soul. I’m *guessing* you might appreciate how the words have been toyed with in the first half of this .. [Roy Harper - The Lord's Prayer] (not that lord’s prayer .. his own one.)
now, ok guys .. .. i know this is the second vid i’ve drawn M’s attention to in the last couple of days .. but, that doesn’t mean i’m sucking up!
It is if you are in the U.S. In Britain, you would have to have a thousand more views. Whacky, huh? Maybe Marina could explain how that number in the U.S. got out of synch with that from the country from which the U.S. split. And how did it happen in a mere 200 years? There’s definitely a story in there somewhere.
WORD REQUEST:
I was surpised when I looked at SEXY wasnt in the list.
But maybe you dont need to do that word since your already doing it in every video anyway.
Word request. Why are captains in the Marine Corps, Army, and Air Force in the pay grade of O-3, while they are O-6’s in the Navy (Denotes a substantial increase of responsibility and pay)? Also, lieutenants in the Marines, Army, and Air Force are only O-1’s and O-2’s while they are O-3’s in the Navy. Why don’t they match up? I have my own unsubstantiated hypothesis.
WLIU, the naval captain probably reflects a probability that they will have a responsibility of or equal to that of the captain of a large ship. As far as the lieutenants go, I’d guess it’s just the whacky way the Navy does things sometimes, i.e. starting out with ensign, which bumps Lt. up one.
My thought is that when both words first came into being, lieutenants on land probably had an equal amount of troops as lieutenants on ship. Same with captains
The difference between cum and come is only a few letters, and they sound phonetically the same, even though they have different meanings. Or do they? Women have always been weaker then men, so is it possible that these words actually have similar meanings, i.e.: a woman making a man cum in bed is synonomous with making him come to her defence in a disagreement? I would be interested to know what you think.
…..M, do you mean you’re going to be hot4words, the evil sister for Halloween …{only difference between the two is one has a preposition for a middle name and the other has a number}
Howdy! I would like to know the origin of the word, or symbol, known as “Rx.” I see it a lot at pharmacies and I believe it means prescription, but I’m not so sure.
WLIU, I think it is a Latin abbreviation for take. A prescription would always begin with the “ingrediments” and method of preparation e.g. “Take two newt’s eyes, a bat’s wing, six pumpkin seeds, a handful of Kobe droppings and mix well.”
ice cream sundae -
why is the ice cream dessert called a sundae? like a chocolate sundae. has it got to do with sunday?
thanks for the great show you are awesome.
We all know the Bush-Gore election fiasco having to do with incompletely-punched chads still connected to the ballots, so you could just do chad. Chads have been around a long time as perferated tape was used by teletype machines as a way to store messages long before magnetic-tape or -wire recording was a twinkle in German eyes.
Are the quotes added automatic at midnight? Good day at any time, later PLOW me Under, wordrequest”ploughboy” or old russian saying of having to shoot a horse that wasn’t pulling together. Grid lines, a good one.
hello miss pretty marina,since it`s getting close to halloween when you sneak up behind someone and say “BOO!!!”can you find the origin and why say “BOO!!!” can you investigate?
do you just take video requests?
have a nice day!!!
If you really want to scare the bejesus out of someone, just stand quietly a few inches behind. When they finally discover you are there, their mind explodes. “Boo” kind of gives their mind a few milliseconds of heads up and is not nearly as effective.
Of course, if they turn around and bash you over the head with whatever is at hand, you don’t have a leg to stand on.
I have been making all kinds of “funky” boogers by rolling up chunks of dried rubber cement. I am going to glue them all over the front of my George Bush mask. Along with this I am wearing this t-shirt I got when I was in Boston… says… George Bush?… vegetable? or noxious weed?
My back pockets will be over-stuffed with fake US money.
Yikes!
WLIU, a catalyst is something that allows other things to react together without the catalyst being directly involved in or consumed by that reaction. Without the catalyst, the other things would not normally react. In other words, it’s a helper to the reaction. Because the catalyst doesn’t actually take part in the reaction, the helping would not likely be predicted, but rather be discovered by accident. Example: “I was a catalyst in Jim’s divorce when I showed his wife pictures of him naked in bed with another women. Who woulda thunk!”
Let it be known that the ancient were season watchers. They looked for signs in the seasons to know when to begin planting, when to start getting ready for winter. Now attach spiritual significance to what you observe. We are about to approach an equinox(Time of the year when the number of daylight hours equals the number of nightime hours)
There are two Equinii or Equinoxes(What is the plural of Equinox?). The Vernal Equinox which is the entry into Summer and the Autumnal Equinox which is the the entry into Winter. The Autumnal Equinox occurs in September, so why is ‘Halloween’ in October?
There is fetishism for all things demonic on ‘Halloween’. So it is not a Holy day. The good thing to do is not to participate in any activity on this day. In other countries people go to pray for the dead, to ask God to forgive them and provide them rest. Here, people fixate and get pleasure from things demonic.
The ancients attached spiritual significance to what they observed in nature. The summer is seen as a time of joy and life; the winter, one of barronness and death. They mustve viewed the Equinoxes as the crisis(’turning’ point) between them.
Saturnalia, celebrated at the Winter Solstice is a time of death and rebirth… particularly of the sun. The days (daylight hours of the days) dwindle shorter until the solstice, then begin to increase again.
Beardozer? i can’t say i’ve ever heard that word before…
But i just can’t figure out bulldozer, I was thinking along the lines of a sleeping cow (dozing bull)? but I can’t see any connections between a sleeping cow and heavy machinery…
Goy… goyim is plural. And I must apologize if I have misled you. I am not Jewish, though I would be proud to be so if I were so blessed. My upbringing and studies have afforded me some knowledge in this realm, but I am a gentile. But this doesn’t stop the yentas in my neighborhood from trying to play matchmaker…
Oh, I forgot, shiksa is correct… and acceptable and almost always meant in a humorous way in the US. (Only in one case have I ever met anyone who felt insulted by that word.) Watch out how you use it elsewhere though. Some may take offense. The root word from which shiksa is derived is sheketz, and it is definitely not a compliment. I believe sheketz roughly means forbidden, unholy, or abomination.
My Yiddish is not so strong (not my forte, heh). I know more Hebrew. Have you ever met anyone who spoke Ladino?
I just fuc%in woke up and some darn upstart is all but callin Me a Hick!! Round here Son,Ya gotta be careful with Yer lips,some good ole boy will tie Ya to a Driftless tree(You know the ones,Kobe dropped down to pee on em during his balloon expedition)and whup the snot outa Ya.
Driftless area is a close enough 20 since allllll the pretty Beaver already got My address,and,My Kids,house,car,retirement,biz and about 1/2 My pride.
Didn’t anybody tell Ya son,,stopped callin it “beaver” looong ago! Now I gotta go see if My GF is wearing “squirrel covers” or not,I wanna “tear one off” before I go to work!
Well TY dez! Now,ummm,how the heck did I become Mr “Trucker-talk”?!?!
I do have a pair of walkie-talkies tho,and a pair of police scanners,and a pretty big “pair” in-general! Ooops,better amend that,*had* a pair of scanners,some woman(crazy ex-neighbor lady)stole My big one,still have My portable tho. Apparently She didn’t ever figure out how to use the scanner She stole cause She got busted,if the scanner was workin She woulda known they were comin!! I think that’s just ironic.
Cheese orbs,and beer?!?! WTF!! I can just imagine the orangish and foamy upchuck!!! Ahhoooooogie yuck! I shouldn’t think about stuff like that before My mornin pot of mississippi mud kicks-in full throttle!
You didn’t dez,did Ya? I thought it was danielpool that started that,,no matter,,I am hardly ever 100% serious anyway.
Yepper,I was a teen in those days,cb radios do have their uses and a heckuva lot more range than walkie-talkies. I’ve driven some machinery,a few big flatbeds,boom trucks,endloader,backhoe,dump truck,skid loaders and even a small caterpillar once,but,never got to drive a semi tractor,with or without trailer. Maybe someday,just to say I did.
Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne,
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
I would like to know where the phrase “Birds of a feather flock together” or even just “Birds of a feather”.
And I am gonna be in my ACUs for Halloween this year lol
…..well I’m going out and buy a white T-shirt put an impression of a tire tread across this shirt, then I can go out as ‘roadkill’ ……with my Pepe le Pew mask I’ll be a dead skunk in the middle of the road….
more music uploaded! a little excellent prime krautrock from 1971: [amon duul - race from here to your ears]
(in three parts: Little tornadoes, Overheated tiara, The flyweighted five)
Marina, in the theme of Halloween, could you look at “familiar”? It usually means something intimate or friendly. However, a witch’s black cat was considered a familiar, meaning a demon or evil spirit. How did the two meanings come to be?
What is the origin of the phrase ” That’s all she wrote ? ”
For example, a newscaster might say, ” If Candidate X doesn’t win Ohio, that’s all she wrote. ”
Or if a baseball team doesn’t start hitting the ball better, that’s all she wrote. ………Thanks and great job !
Marina, at the end; to get more traffic to here why dont you have a picture that says hotforwords.com then put one of those annotations that have a link to the site in it? I am sure that would make more traffic.
Marina I think what James is trying to say is something like this at the end of your videos on utube. But instead of Rhonda’s Myspace site it would say subscribe to HotForWords.com.
also Dez liubit referenced back to a Russian language also.I used Google Translate and Babelfish and they both came out with the same translation. He could be calling James a rooster vacuumer. If you know what I mean. lol
Yikes… gives a whole new meaning to Rhode Island Red!
I found a Russian translation for the Beatles hit: She Loves You. I note the use of the word “liubit” for love.
Ona tebya liubit- she loves you
Ona tebia liubit.
Ona tebia liubit
Ona seichas liubit tebia
Ushla tvoya liubov’
To chto bylo ne zabutet’sya
No ona poliubit vnov’
i zhelanie tvoye sbudetsya
Ona skazala, chto gotova vsye prostiit’,
Potom skazala, obesh’ala polubit’
Ty obidel tak eye.
Rassudok poteralyala ona.
Seichas do neye doshlo. Chto ty eto govoril liubya.
Ona skazala, chto gotova vsye prostiit’,
Potom skazala, obesh’ala polubit’
“malenkii” looks to be translated as “small” or “little”. So what it looks like is… (apart from the rooster vacuum option)
“James does not love Marina? James has a little dirty (filthy) mouth.” or perhaps…
“James does not love Marina? James is a little ass-mouth.”
OMG That F**king scared me!!! You know I flatter you with my words when I respond with homework, and I’m serious all the time, I am serious I am serious. You scarred me! And of course I am going to flatter you with my words because you are hot. Hence Hot For Words. Yeah that f***king scared me!
I’m a Zombie with a Brainz Fetish. Not so scary, but seeing as you have Intelligence I just might have to EAT YOUR BRAINZ!!!
лучше перейду на английском чтоб все понимали. I would like to know the origin of the word, actually they’re couple of words but it could be simplified to one – bollocks?! I am a big fan of British humor and I am curious why “dogs bollocks” is supposed to be good and “plain” “normal” bollocks is bad or simply crap. What is the idea and where it comes from? I hope it is not a very vulgar demand i have there. I came with this one while watching your video about Bear and Bull.
P.S. А и можеш называть меня белый или просто Паша
Dear Marina,
I just saw your ceasar video and it reminded me that once i herd the word Czar came from ceasar. Did it? And how did it change from ceasar to Czar.
By the way. I’m still waiting for my word request. here they are again.
Phantasmagoria
Misanthropic
Extemporaneous
Circumlocution
Bacchanalian
Anthropomorphic
anyone of these would be fine. Big THANKS.
I don’t think I shall be loosing my head, dressing up this Halloween, but I have found suitable costumes for capman and Kobe, and also one for Capt.Jack.
I like the effects you produced in this video, particularly the colour negative one which made it look as though you had a fluorescent lamp stuffed under your … err … shaggy rug.
My costume is a ’stoner’ I call Mr. Pot Head or Mr. Phd for short.
I walk around smelling of the herb and having the munchies. I also have delusion of grandeur, then upon review of these delusion on the next morning I realize all my ideas really suck.
Hey HotForWords Before I Make A Request I Wanted You To Give A Shoutout To The Girl I Like “Kusa Thy!” and i have a GREAT Word For You..”Selfish”, explain how they put those words together to make up a totally different MEANING..Help!
I want to really upset and terrify the other party-goers, so I’m going as a mass-murdering war criminal who destroys his country and turns it into a bankrupt fascist dictatorship, if I can find a GWB mask.
And I’m going as a lame do-nothing that allows whacko zealots to carry violence and distruction into our country unhindered to reduce the population to hiding their children under their beds for their entire lives (unless they change their religion, of course, and then everything is miraculously OK).
Puts a new perspective on Trick or Treat, doesn’t it?
<soapbox>The way I look at it is, so what if she is merely ordinary? What’s wrong with a citizen vice president or president once in a while? I mean, look at Clinton with his scholarly honors. Didn’t stop him from ignoring 800,000 murders in Rwanda did it? (Any boob could figure out that few hundred tons of well-placed bombs that would cause them to stop and think would certainly be better than doing nothing, regardless of the collateral damage. Especially after the 400,000 mark was reached.) But nothing was done! (oh, well, they were only natives.) It seems to me that nothing she could do (short of nuclear mismanagement) could come out as wrong as that. A good heart goes a long way. </soapbox<>
Federal Bureau of Intimidation… er, Investigation. I used to work at Quantico, both as a Marine and a civilian. The FBI academy and its personnel are very cool.
Marina can you place more toys in the HTML code section also more emoticons……i just need more ways to creatively express myself. ……{ maybe bake us some cookies too }
If you put too much in, people will start using huge fonts or whatever in order to stand out, which can be distracting to say the least. It depends on who the users are; just anyone from anywhere will take advantage (witness the YouTube comments), but a close-knit group tends to use self discipline and conform to the norm (or at least be thoughtful of others).
One technique is to add a new allowed tag and see if anyone abuses (vs. uses) it. If they do, delete it; it they don’t, leave it in. Some tags are less likely to be abused, such as >olstrong<? Strong allows the browser to display whichever font the user has set up for emphasis (whereas bold just gets you bold).
One thing I wish I could disable is the annoying Co-comment Updated Converstion thingy. It keeps popping up and I have no use for it.
Some tags are less likely to be abused, such as >olstrong<? Strong allows the browser to display whichever font the user has set up for emphasis (whereas bold just gets you bold).
OK, I finally figured it out! I was using my invented technique of reversing the angle brackets to keep the tags from executing (but since they aren’t allowed anyway, I probably didn’t even need to) and I didn’t remember that Word Press swallows up everything between a left bracket and any following right bracket no matter how much text is in between, including whole sentences. Therefore, that techniques only works when you type just one tag; two or more and you are in trouble.
Now I have just discovered the real answer; if one simply substitutes the HTML entity code instead of actually typing the brackets, it appears normally, yet doesn’t execute. So then, it should read:
Some tags are less likely to be abused, such as <ol>, so you could start with that one. BTW, what’s wrong with <strong>? <strong> allows the browser to display whichever font the user has set up for emphasis (whereas bold just gets you bold).
One can’t let little technicalities like that stand in the way of a good fantasy, can one?
WLIU (this hearafter is the new standard HFW abbreviation for “without looking it up”), whippersnapper refers to a young or inexperienced person, especially an annoyingly rambunctious or unruly one. It originated from the tendancy of new horse wagon drivers to snap their whips over the horses, but seasoned drivers would merely utter a command and the horses would obey. The former would ostentatiously put on a show, wheas the latter quietly demonstrated their mastery over their animals. How’d I do?
The term originated from the feelings of the auto workers at the General Motors plant in Marion, Illinoise. They felt like puppets on the assembly line, with the bosses pulling their strings every second of every day, especially after efficiency experts had studied and timed their every move and then specified exactly how the job was to be done, with no deviations allowed. The workers finally had enough and the Marionettes, as they became to be known, killed all the supervisors and executives. Unfortunately there was no one left to pay them, so they all starved to death.
Dear совершенная Marina, You must do enormous work to produce your videos! First, you probably eat nothing for three hours before filming, so you will look thinner. Then you set the videocam on it’s tripod and set up the microphone. You select a skimpy outfit to wear, put on make-up, arrange your hair and get in position before the camera. You recite the script for the opening and main speech. Then, there’s more work. After you eat a miniature meal that’s low-fat, low sugar and low-calorie, you must begin editing! You add the opening and closing videos, add still pictures of yourself, place new photos in your introductory video, and insert many pop-up images that you move in and out of the screen. You also add background music, and lots of sound effects, too. For this video you added negative images, tinted images, bloody image inserts, reverberation and other sounds! It’s lots of amazing work!
I’ll need to play my guitar for days to create enough sound files for my own videos, and I haven’t written the first script, yet!
For your homework, I don’t have to dress up for Halloween. I just pass out candies to children who call. If I would get many young, slender women to dress in tiny clothing just like Hot For Words, I think I’d have a very happy halloween!
Your dear student, seesixcm6
Do you eat nothing for three hours before filming, too?
I’m glad you’re already posting videos. I’m still working on background music for videos I plan to do.
it’s not like they’re epics. most of them (’cept for the last two) took 1..2 days. – except .. they were very hard working days .. i had a lot to learn.
so .. yeh .. well .. i dont technically think there was a “3 hours before filming”, because that would have been the 3 hours at the end of the previous work.
what are you using for the music? .. a music prog or live?
I’m recording music I play on guitar on a cassette tape recorder right now. I hope to transfer it as background music to videos, later. To prevent problems with the music industry, I’m trying to use music at least 100 years old. “Home on the Range”, “Ode to Joy”, and stuff like that.
Copyrights are now the life of the author plus 70 years in the U.S. (Disney got Congress to pass this for them so that they could keep Mickey Mouse from escaping into the public domain.)
i played a little guitar yonks ago … just before i abandonned it i got some bits of stuff onto cassette. at some point i’ll have a shot at transcribing into my music prog. Trouble is .. i have v little music theory and cnat for the life of me work out what notes i’m playing unless i can put my hands on the neck of a guitar and actuall play the thing.
Homework: I’ve opted to go with the
Secret Service agent costume. I wear my
Brooks Bros. suit, dark glasses (heh heh),
and the earpiece, of course. I have a route
planned to hit 4 spots where I am sure
to encounter people costumed as candidates.
Part of the act is to not smile, and “talk”
to my shirt cuff. No makeup, no mask
Nobody I’ve seen has thought of this so
it should get some laughs
well .. i think it’s possible to be rational and human and lean to the right .. i mean .. you don’t have to be insanely Bill O’Reilly right or George Bush right.
plus .. why do people assume that the more attractive someone is, the more likely they are to be soft hearted and lefty?
at core, M’s a serious business woman, and hard working business people tend to be politically left inclined. … Not that it’s impossible, but just that it’s something that wouldn’t come natural to a person involved in that kind of struggle .. they’d have to seriously put time aside to consider that kind of stuff.
so .. maybe M is left inclined .. but maybe not.
plus .. america hates lefties… M doesn’t want to be hated by america, does she?
This year I am planning on wearing clothes that have gotten paint on them, and putting a bandage around my ear. Van Gogh is a bit surreal for Halloween, but it is an easy costume.
Marina, this is completely sincere. I think I love you. You are gorgeous, intelligent, clever and funny. OK maybe I just have a little buzz on from getting the first comment in. But really, you’re great. If I thought I stood even the slimest chance, I swear I’d ask you to marry me.

HOLy….Flagellation or flogging is the act of methodically beating or whipping (Latin flagellum, “whip”) the human body. Specialised implements for it include rods, switches, the cat-o-nine-tails and the sjambok. Typically, flogging is imposed on an unwilling subject as a punishment; however, it can also be submitted to willingly, or performed on oneself, in religious or sadomasochistic contexts.
I love a random and all saints day is a real thing…Helloween – Push (from Better Than Raw)
mmmm looking svelte there Marina, or Lithe if you prefer. Wish hotforprofits would show herself off like that rrrrr. Anyways thanks for the remake I like the idea.
a glowing skeleton
Here’s a cool video I think you will get a kick out of watching it.

Marina here’s a picture of Gorby & Gorby. One part donated by Bob. I wanted to see what the port wine stain would look like on
KobeGorby’s little head.Is “All Hallow’s Eve” an anachronism? Or did the word “even” change to “eve” while the holiday was still called “All Hallow’s Even?” These are the questions that keep me up at night.
Here’s a little relaxing moment to soothe all those tense muscles.

Just a joke I put up like Mijj does just to think your going to a sexy site. She didn’t look bad in her boy panties though. 
I never knew it was so much work and planning to take a bath!
I just take a shower when feel like I need one!
It’s great to be a guy!
What a cool video.. You totally scared me on 2:23 (yea right, even when your trying to be scary you look cute)
Hello my sweet friend,this web site had been to wonderful,Iliked to it!You are very nice!

Hey Marina, great video and scary. You looked like you felt embarrassed when you did the scary scream. By the way since it’s another holiday will you be so nice and send us a Halloween card? Please. Here’s you a Halloween Treat
Oh let me guess….. Ghostrider (gravatar), right?
Yes sir, Ghost Rider

How does one disable the Co-comment stuff at the bottom of the comment dialog box? Co-comment boxes seems to pop up every time I place the cursor anywhere in the dialog box, even if it is not right near the bottom. It is as maddening as a virus.
Hate it,
Hate it,
Hate it.
Is there any way,
To dissipate it?
If you don’t want it any more just delete it from your control panel. I don’t use it so I don’t know how to turn it off, unless your running firefox then just click on tools and click on add ons and disable it in that section.
I don’t see anything in Control Panel that would be relevant. I don’t think what I do in XP or IE7 is going to change what is obviously coming from HFW’s server. I was hoping there was a user-selectable setting that would allow one to disable the Co-comment feature. It is SO annoying. Help, Marina.
Hey CampKohler, did you look in the add remove section of control panel it should be at the top of the page on the left if your running xp. There you can remove any program that is listed there. Just click on the cocomments program if it is there ans uninstall it.
Here is their site contact that you can ask them any question to get help. It’s an e-mail address.

Look under the comment box at the top of the page and see if you can log out or change your options from there.

ok, Marina Wordbuster … i have another vid for you .. this time it’s to tickle your mind rather than your soul. I’m *guessing* you might appreciate how the words have been toyed with in the first half of this .. [Roy Harper - The Lord's Prayer] (not that lord’s prayer .. his own one.)
now, ok guys ..
.. i know this is the second vid i’ve drawn M’s attention to in the last couple of days .. but, that doesn’t mean i’m sucking up!
ps. .. i remembered to make it public.
+ no more vids for a while cos i think you may become weary of em.
will this vid be missed due to poor timing?
That’s 1/8 of a billion!!
It is if you are in the U.S. In Britain, you would have to have a thousand more views. Whacky, huh? Maybe Marina could explain how that number in the U.S. got out of synch with that from the country from which the U.S. split. And how did it happen in a mere 200 years? There’s definitely a story in there somewhere.
good one, Camp .. that’s a mystery and an annoyance when watching news reports.
….or 1/4 billion (+ or -) eyeballs
….this is dedicated to the one eyed love – the freakin’ Cyclops
WORD REQUEST:
I was surpised when I looked at SEXY wasnt in the list.
But maybe you dont need to do that word since your already doing it in every video anyway.
Word request. Why are captains in the Marine Corps, Army, and Air Force in the pay grade of O-3, while they are O-6’s in the Navy (Denotes a substantial increase of responsibility and pay)? Also, lieutenants in the Marines, Army, and Air Force are only O-1’s and O-2’s while they are O-3’s in the Navy. Why don’t they match up? I have my own unsubstantiated hypothesis.
WLIU, the naval captain probably reflects a probability that they will have a responsibility of or equal to that of the captain of a large ship. As far as the lieutenants go, I’d guess it’s just the whacky way the Navy does things sometimes, i.e. starting out with ensign, which bumps Lt. up one.
My thought is that when both words first came into being, lieutenants on land probably had an equal amount of troops as lieutenants on ship. Same with captains
2nd lts can have troops, but I don’t think ensigns have anything.
The difference between cum and come is only a few letters, and they sound phonetically the same, even though they have different meanings. Or do they? Women have always been weaker then men, so is it possible that these words actually have similar meanings, i.e.: a woman making a man cum in bed is synonomous with making him come to her defence in a disagreement? I would be interested to know what you think.
…..M, do you mean you’re going to be hot4words, the evil sister for Halloween
…{only difference between the two is one has a preposition for a middle name and the other has a number}
Howdy! I would like to know the origin of the word, or symbol, known as “Rx.” I see it a lot at pharmacies and I believe it means prescription, but I’m not so sure.
WLIU, I think it is a Latin abbreviation for take. A prescription would always begin with the “ingrediments” and method of preparation e.g. “Take two newt’s eyes, a bat’s wing, six pumpkin seeds, a handful of Kobe droppings and mix well.”
Hey Marina, I was wondering where the words goblin and troll came from. I’ve never understood what they mean.

why not wear a costume marina ?
I am dressing as a gentleman from the 1776 period. I might even make a video to share with you Marina.

“Dilatant”: Thank you, your new fan.
I will be working Halloween, which is scary enough without the costume.

ice cream sundae -
why is the ice cream dessert called a sundae? like a chocolate sundae. has it got to do with sunday?
thanks for the great show you are awesome.
Hi again Marina!
can you please do the origin of “hanging Chad”?
We all know the Bush-Gore election fiasco having to do with incompletely-punched chads still connected to the ballots, so you could just do chad. Chads have been around a long time as perferated tape was used by teletype machines as a way to store messages long before magnetic-tape or -wire recording was a twinkle in German eyes.
Whew ! That was a scary lesson. The only reason I didn’t run away was because Marina was looking so fine.
Hi Marina,
Can you please tell me the origin of the words “Doppleganger” and “Dead Ringer”?
Thank you!

hello miss pretty marina,since it`s getting close to halloween when you sneak up behind someone and say “BOO!!!”can you find the origin and why say “BOO!!!” can you investigate?
do you just take video requests?
have a nice day!!!
If you really want to scare the bejesus out of someone, just stand quietly a few inches behind. When they finally discover you are there, their mind explodes. “Boo” kind of gives their mind a few milliseconds of heads up and is not nearly as effective.
Of course, if they turn around and bash you over the head with whatever is at hand, you don’t have a leg to stand on.
you know how you can “think of somebody” .. can you “feel of somebody”?
….now is the time for some Reggae Redemtion Song – Bob Marley
great song
Hi Marina could you please sing a song i love to hear you sing in one of your videos
She knows better.
Hi Marina,
I am going to be the “Scary Booger-Bush-Man”.
I have been making all kinds of “funky” boogers by rolling up chunks of dried rubber cement. I am going to glue them all over the front of my George Bush mask. Along with this I am wearing this t-shirt I got when I was in Boston… says… George Bush?… vegetable? or noxious weed?
My back pockets will be over-stuffed with fake US money.
Yikes!
….once had a tee shirt I bought in Jamaica it said:
…………“Reggae not Regan”
don’t bother trick or treating the house below me.
Hi Marina I was wondering In my English class we were talking about the word catalyst can you explain that in more depth for me
WLIU, a catalyst is something that allows other things to react together without the catalyst being directly involved in or consumed by that reaction. Without the catalyst, the other things would not normally react. In other words, it’s a helper to the reaction. Because the catalyst doesn’t actually take part in the reaction, the helping would not likely be predicted, but rather be discovered by accident. Example: “I was a catalyst in Jim’s divorce when I showed his wife pictures of him naked in bed with another women. Who woulda thunk!”
Hello brothers and sisters:
Let it be known that the ancient were season watchers. They looked for signs in the seasons to know when to begin planting, when to start getting ready for winter. Now attach spiritual significance to what you observe. We are about to approach an equinox(Time of the year when the number of daylight hours equals the number of nightime hours)
There are two Equinii or Equinoxes(What is the plural of Equinox?). The Vernal Equinox which is the entry into Summer and the Autumnal Equinox which is the the entry into Winter. The Autumnal Equinox occurs in September, so why is ‘Halloween’ in October?
There is fetishism for all things demonic on ‘Halloween’. So it is not a Holy day. The good thing to do is not to participate in any activity on this day. In other countries people go to pray for the dead, to ask God to forgive them and provide them rest. Here, people fixate and get pleasure from things demonic.
Keep well everyone.
The ancients attached spiritual significance to what they observed in nature. The summer is seen as a time of joy and life; the winter, one of barronness and death. They mustve viewed the Equinoxes as the crisis(’turning’ point) between them.
Saturnalia, celebrated at the Winter Solstice is a time of death and rebirth… particularly of the sun. The days (daylight hours of the days) dwindle shorter until the solstice, then begin to increase again.
I’ve got a word request; Bulldozer, the Tractor like machine with a large scoop at the front.
Also do beardozer.
Beardozer? i can’t say i’ve ever heard that word before…
But i just can’t figure out bulldozer, I was thinking along the lines of a sleeping cow (dozing bull)? but I can’t see any connections between a sleeping cow and heavy machinery…
She just did one on bears and bulls (it sucks when you have to explain a joke). There’s some history here.
@Dez, you secretly want the polar opposite of your mother,
no I’m not crazy just an observant goyim
also i am right handed
and typing with your left.
….sticky yuk!
Goy… goyim is plural. And I must apologize if I have misled you. I am not Jewish, though I would be proud to be so if I were so blessed. My upbringing and studies have afforded me some knowledge in this realm, but I am a gentile. But this doesn’t stop the yentas in my neighborhood from trying to play matchmaker…
…good for you…now when I make a yiddish joke someone will know what I’m talking about
Oh, I forgot, shiksa is correct… and acceptable and almost always meant in a humorous way in the US. (Only in one case have I ever met anyone who felt insulted by that word.) Watch out how you use it elsewhere though. Some may take offense. The root word from which shiksa is derived is sheketz, and it is definitely not a compliment. I believe sheketz roughly means forbidden, unholy, or abomination.
My Yiddish is not so strong (not my forte, heh). I know more Hebrew. Have you ever met anyone who spoke Ladino?
it’s been 2 1/2 hours and Marina hasn’t started a new page.
does anyone know if she’s ok?
marina who?
marina who = hair woman
she’s not hair.
hare*
but if she’s not hair, then “hair woman” wouldn’t be an anagram of “marina who” – so “hair” must be apt – for the sake of art!

Cool guitar work… good beat

that reminds me of a word i created back in school for a ethnomusicology class, “polyethnophonic” i like that word.
all the words you make are way too long .. as if you’re trying to impress. That word should have been “plethonic”
shutthefuckup
LOL… I love both of these polysyllabic words. Buzz, your penchant for vocabulary is astounding.
that’s a good word, however .. shutthefuckup … could be shortened to shutfup.

What was the ring called?
{the ring used for pleasure}
Sorry, it wasn’t my intent to label you as “CB Guy”.
I remember the days when CB talk was the fad… back in the days of Convoy and the saga of the Rubber Duck.
You didn’t dez,did Ya? I thought it was danielpool that started that,,no matter,,I am hardly ever 100% serious anyway.
Yepper,I was a teen in those days,cb radios do have their uses and a heckuva lot more range than walkie-talkies. I’ve driven some machinery,a few big flatbeds,boom trucks,endloader,backhoe,dump truck,skid loaders and even a small caterpillar once,but,never got to drive a semi tractor,with or without trailer. Maybe someday,just to say I did.

Wrong ring but a cool(though darkly foreboding)poem che volet;;
One Ring
Ash nazg durbatulûk, ash nazg gimbatul,
Ash nazg thrakutulûk agh burzum-ishi krimpatul.
Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne,
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

Marina, in the theme of Halloween, could you look at “familiar”? It usually means something intimate or friendly. However, a witch’s black cat was considered a familiar, meaning a demon or evil spirit. How did the two meanings come to be?
hmmm…i always thought a witch’s familiar was a demon or spirt (not necessarily evil) known to the witch, and hence “familiar” to him/her…
Good suggestion… It could be, but the etymological info I’ve found does not clarify if this is the case or not.
Hi Marina..
Love your videos..
Also in the spirit of Halloween, I’m just wondering where the word “Will-o-wisp” Come from..
I don’t see anything related to it being a wisp..
Thank you..
I mean a “Will” not a wisp..
I was too engrossed watching your video..
lol..
That is truly a great one, Marina – thanks!
Hi Marina
What is the origin of the phrase ” That’s all she wrote ? ”
For example, a newscaster might say, ” If Candidate X doesn’t win Ohio, that’s all she wrote. ”
Or if a baseball team doesn’t start hitting the ball better, that’s all she wrote. ………Thanks and great job !
Idea for your videos
Marina, at the end; to get more traffic to here why dont you have a picture that says hotforwords.com then put one of those annotations that have a link to the site in it? I am sure that would make more traffic.
oh, just what we need, lots of youtubers running over here and being rude instead of just being rude there…
oh, wait, i’m a youtuber…a youSpud, maybe…(-;
ah, didn’t think of that
You can’t link outside of YouTube with those annotations James. Good idea though!
Marina I think what James is trying to say is something like this at the end of your videos on utube. But instead of Rhonda’s Myspace site it would say subscribe to HotForWords.com.

Oh, thats a shame.

Some one posted this on my video
James ne liubit Marinu???… James malenkii zadrot!
I think its croatian. Does any one know what it means?
I think you are right about it being Croatian… perhaps Serbian.
I believe it translates “James does not love Marina? James is a bad man!”
I found a site that translates zadrot as Russian in origin…
Zad=butt
Rot=mouth
Zadrot=butt-mouth
I don’t think this is the case, however, Marina should know if it’s Russian… or ask Pavel
also Dez liubit referenced back to a Russian language also.I used Google Translate and Babelfish and they both came out with the same translation. He could be calling James a rooster vacuumer. If you know what I mean. lol
….i do know what you are saying Capman
Yikes… gives a whole new meaning to Rhode Island Red!
I found a Russian translation for the Beatles hit: She Loves You. I note the use of the word “liubit” for love.
Ona tebya liubit- she loves you
Ona tebia liubit.
Ona tebia liubit
Ona seichas liubit tebia
Ushla tvoya liubov’
To chto bylo ne zabutet’sya
No ona poliubit vnov’
i zhelanie tvoye sbudetsya
Ona skazala, chto gotova vsye prostiit’,
Potom skazala, obesh’ala polubit’
Ty obidel tak eye.
Rassudok poteralyala ona.
Seichas do neye doshlo. Chto ty eto govoril liubya.
Ona skazala, chto gotova vsye prostiit’,
Potom skazala, obesh’ala polubit’
“malenkii” looks to be translated as “small” or “little”. So what it looks like is… (apart from the rooster vacuum option)
“James does not love Marina? James has a little dirty (filthy) mouth.” or perhaps…
“James does not love Marina? James is a little ass-mouth.”
my favorite new insult… ass mouth.
….sounds like a bad case of the zxactlies
……that’s when your breath smells exactly like your asshole
James I translated this much using Croatian.
James does not liubit Marino? … James malenkii zadrot!
Latvian translation.
James not liubit Marina??? … James malenkii Zadra!
Since it is almost Halloween, I was wondering where “boo” originated.
And most importantly! why “boo!” is used at sporting events. If a crowd does not like something they “boo!” It has always fascinated me.
Marina!
OMG That F**king scared me!!! You know I flatter you with my words when I respond with homework, and I’m serious all the time, I am serious I am serious. You scarred me! And of course I am going to flatter you with my words because you are hot. Hence Hot For Words. Yeah that f***king scared me!

Приветик моя дорогая учителница
лучше перейду на английском чтоб все понимали. I would like to know the origin of the word, actually they’re couple of words but it could be simplified to one – bollocks?! I am a big fan of British humor and I am curious why “dogs bollocks” is supposed to be good and “plain” “normal” bollocks is bad or simply crap. What is the idea and where it comes from? I hope it is not a very vulgar demand i have there. I came with this one while watching your video about Bear and Bull.
P.S. А и можеш называть меня белый или просто Паша

Good to see the vampire voice comeback Marina!!! I think samhain is actually a pagan festival. Actually a pagan told me it was a pagan festival.
I am going away for 6 days on tuesday so let me know what I have missed!
Dear Marina,
I just saw your ceasar video and it reminded me that once i herd the word Czar came from ceasar. Did it? And how did it change from ceasar to Czar.
WORD REQUEST:
Why do words like “retard” and “retreat” have the prefix “re” when they aren’t repeated?
You mean “peated?”
as a red lobster
or a black or cricket
black crow or cricket

It looks like kungfu86 is copying your style of dress, Marina.
Bob I keep hearing this about Kungfu 86 who is she?
She’s the one who requested “peruse”.
kungfu86’s channel
kungfu86’s web site
She’s looks to be a teenager or in her early twenties and is very pretty in her video request. If the 86 refers to her birth, that would make her 22.
(If that doesn’t get everyone digging back to find her, I don’t know what will.)
Bob did it Marina do a word request one time before for her
i cant remember what it was
I think I would have remembered if she had.
Don’t rock the boat Bob. Kung fu is kinda hot too.
She’s not kinda hot; she’s smoking hot.
Yes she is. But I saw her on Marina’s site and EVERYTHING is relitive.
I have to chose between Batman and the Reaper
By the way. I’m still waiting for my word request. here they are again.
Phantasmagoria
Misanthropic
Extemporaneous
Circumlocution
Bacchanalian
Anthropomorphic
anyone of these would be fine. Big THANKS.
…..now it is time for some Afternoon Delight
i’m happy for you, sorry if i interrupted.
LOL
Hey, responded again… sorry, but it’s very wordy.
Audio bandwith is very narrow. Did you put a mic in front of a speaker (instead of using an electrical connection) to record this?
I don’t think I shall be loosing my head, dressing up this Halloween, but I have found suitable costumes for capman and Kobe, and also
one for Capt.Jack.
I like the effects you produced in this video, particularly the colour negative one which made it look as though you had a fluorescent lamp stuffed under your … err … shaggy rug.
Bob that was a good one. I had to save that one. I may use it for my Halloween costume
How do you know her rug is shaggy? You’ve been peeking?
My costume is a ’stoner’ I call Mr. Pot Head or Mr. Phd for short.
I walk around smelling of the herb and having the munchies. I also have delusion of grandeur, then upon review of these delusion on the next morning I realize all my ideas really suck.
Watch yourself out there on Halloween, Mr. Potato Head… some undead stoner may carve you out and turn you into his next bong.

I want to really upset and terrify the other party-goers, so I’m going as a mass-murdering war criminal who destroys his country and turns it into a bankrupt fascist dictatorship, if I can find a GWB mask.
that would be terrifying.
Look at those soul-less eyes…
And I’m going as a lame do-nothing that allows whacko zealots to carry violence and distruction into our country unhindered to reduce the population to hiding their children under their beds for their entire lives (unless they change their religion, of course, and then everything is miraculously OK).
Puts a new perspective on Trick or Treat, doesn’t it?
so your going as palin?
<soapbox>The way I look at it is, so what if she is merely ordinary? What’s wrong with a citizen vice president or president once in a while? I mean, look at Clinton with his scholarly honors. Didn’t stop him from ignoring 800,000 murders in Rwanda did it? (Any boob could figure out that few hundred tons of well-placed bombs that would cause them to stop and think would certainly be better than doing nothing, regardless of the collateral damage. Especially after the 400,000 mark was reached.) But nothing was done! (oh, well, they were only natives.) It seems to me that nothing she could do (short of nuclear mismanagement) could come out as wrong as that. A good heart goes a long way. </soapbox<>
what dose FBI means
Federal Bureau of Investigation or Female Body Inspector
Hi Cap! I like the 2nd one better! Wish I could get that job!:mrgreen:
It means “fake breast implants” (as opposed to the real ones).
Fake breast implants vs. Real breast implants?
Federal Bureau of Intimidation… er, Investigation. I used to work at Quantico, both as a Marine and a civilian. The FBI academy and its personnel are very cool.
well that explains your skills!
Oy, if only! Sometimes I long for those government bennies…

If it’s cold out on Halloween, you can wrap yourself in an enigma.
Marina can you place more toys in the HTML code section also more emoticons……i just need more ways to creatively express myself.
……{ maybe bake us some cookies too }
If you put too much in, people will start using huge fonts or whatever in order to stand out, which can be distracting to say the least. It depends on who the users are; just anyone from anywhere will take advantage (witness the YouTube comments), but a close-knit group tends to use self discipline and conform to the norm (or at least be thoughtful of others).
One technique is to add a new allowed tag and see if anyone abuses (vs. uses) it. If they do, delete it; it they don’t, leave it in. Some tags are less likely to be abused, such as >olstrong<? Strong allows the browser to display whichever font the user has set up for emphasis (whereas bold just gets you bold).
One thing I wish I could disable is the annoying Co-comment Updated Converstion thingy. It keeps popping up and I have no use for it.
Rats! Something went wrong again. It should read:
OK, I finally figured it out! I was using my invented technique of reversing the angle brackets to keep the tags from executing (but since they aren’t allowed anyway, I probably didn’t even need to) and I didn’t remember that Word Press swallows up everything between a left bracket and any following right bracket no matter how much text is in between, including whole sentences. Therefore, that techniques only works when you type just one tag; two or more and you are in trouble.
Now I have just discovered the real answer; if one simply substitutes the HTML entity code instead of actually typing the brackets, it appears normally, yet doesn’t execute. So then, it should read:
Dang, left out a semicolon. We REALLY need edit back!
Even though I’m old enough to be your father, I always enjoy your videos. You’re one of the best videos on youtube.
How about the origin of the word “whippersnapper”?
Thanks
> “…old enough to be your father….”
One can’t let little technicalities like that stand in the way of a good fantasy, can one?
WLIU (this hearafter is the new standard HFW abbreviation for “without looking it up”), whippersnapper refers to a young or inexperienced person, especially an annoyingly rambunctious or unruly one. It originated from the tendancy of new horse wagon drivers to snap their whips over the horses, but seasoned drivers would merely utter a command and the horses would obey. The former would ostentatiously put on a show, wheas the latter quietly demonstrated their mastery over their animals. How’d I do?
I’m going to be a Marionette, and I was wondering, what’s the origin of that word ? Thank you, Marina!
The term originated from the feelings of the auto workers at the General Motors plant in Marion, Illinoise. They felt like puppets on the assembly line, with the bosses pulling their strings every second of every day, especially after efficiency experts had studied and timed their every move and then specified exactly how the job was to be done, with no deviations allowed. The workers finally had enough and the Marionettes, as they became to be known, killed all the supervisors and executives. Unfortunately there was no one left to pay them, so they all starved to death.
At least I think that’s how it went.
Dear совершенная Marina, You must do enormous work to produce your videos! First, you probably eat nothing for three hours before filming, so you will look thinner. Then you set the videocam on it’s tripod and set up the microphone. You select a skimpy outfit to wear, put on make-up, arrange your hair and get in position before the camera. You recite the script for the opening and main speech. Then, there’s more work. After you eat a miniature meal that’s low-fat, low sugar and low-calorie, you must begin editing! You add the opening and closing videos, add still pictures of yourself, place new photos in your introductory video, and insert many pop-up images that you move in and out of the screen. You also add background music, and lots of sound effects, too. For this video you added negative images, tinted images, bloody image inserts, reverberation and other sounds! It’s lots of amazing work!
I’ll need to play my guitar for days to create enough sound files for my own videos, and I haven’t written the first script, yet!
For your homework, I don’t have to dress up for Halloween. I just pass out candies to children who call. If I would get many young, slender women to dress in tiny clothing just like Hot For Words, I think I’d have a very happy halloween!
Your dear student, seesixcm6
That’s uncanny .. that’s exactly what i do when making my humble animations!
Do you eat nothing for three hours before filming, too?
I’m glad you’re already posting videos. I’m still working on background music for videos I plan to do.
have you seen my videos? .. they’re seconds long.
it’s not like they’re epics. most of them (’cept for the last two) took 1..2 days. – except .. they were very hard working days .. i had a lot to learn.
so .. yeh .. well .. i dont technically think there was a “3 hours before filming”, because that would have been the 3 hours at the end of the previous work.
what are you using for the music? .. a music prog or live?
I’m recording music I play on guitar on a cassette tape recorder right now. I hope to transfer it as background music to videos, later. To prevent problems with the music industry, I’m trying to use music at least 100 years old. “Home on the Range”, “Ode to Joy”, and stuff like that.
Copyrights are now the life of the author plus 70 years in the U.S. (Disney got Congress to pass this for them so that they could keep Mickey Mouse from escaping into the public domain.)
you not hveing a shot at recordig your own stuff?
i played a little guitar yonks ago … just before i abandonned it i got some bits of stuff onto cassette. at some point i’ll have a shot at transcribing into my music prog. Trouble is .. i have v little music theory and cnat for the life of me work out what notes i’m playing unless i can put my hands on the neck of a guitar and actuall play the thing.
Homework: I’ve opted to go with the
Secret Service agent costume. I wear my
Brooks Bros. suit, dark glasses (heh heh),
and the earpiece, of course. I have a route
planned to hit 4 spots where I am sure
to encounter people costumed as candidates.
Part of the act is to not smile, and “talk”
to my shirt cuff. No makeup, no mask
Nobody I’ve seen has thought of this so
it should get some laughs
That’s a good costume. If you see a person who’s costume is ahmadinejad kick his just for the fun of it
Hi Marina 5*
that was so scary. You did a excellent job on explaining Halloween i liked it very much thank you 
the sequel?
Marina is leaning to the left in this video
{…..some kind of political subliminal message, i wonder
}
her right tho.
when it comes down to it, M rests firmly on the right.
….exit stage right – Snagelpus
*Snagglepuss voice*
“Heavens to Mergatroid! It’s getting very political, even!”
well .. i think it’s possible to be rational and human and lean to the right .. i mean .. you don’t have to be insanely Bill O’Reilly right or George Bush right.
plus .. why do people assume that the more attractive someone is, the more likely they are to be soft hearted and lefty?
at core, M’s a serious business woman, and hard working business people tend to be politically left inclined. … Not that it’s impossible, but just that it’s something that wouldn’t come natural to a person involved in that kind of struggle .. they’d have to seriously put time aside to consider that kind of stuff.
so .. maybe M is left inclined .. but maybe not.
plus .. america hates lefties… M doesn’t want to be hated by america, does she?
Looks even, left & right, to me anyways, but I wasn’t going to say anything… I’m too polite.
Boo!

i’m dressing up as a volleyball referee on Halloween – i have a match at a prestigious downtown Atlanta university…
hopefully the coeds will be running amok in just being genie outfits when i get done…
drat…scratch the “being”…
Marina would be perfect in that “I Dream of Genie” outfit.
Except that, unlike the original, she would get to show her navel.

I love Cassandra Peterson. She’s a laugh-fest.
Hey ChaChas I found you another pirate fish, but this one is gold.

Oooo that reminds me… never vote for the lesser of two evils… Vote Cthulhu!
h.p. lovecraft, perfect for halloween!
oh wow, i just realized the humor of not voting for the lesser of two evils and choosing cthulhu… primordial evil. i’m slow.
It’s OK, Buzzword… we know that you were distracted by the wonder of the Necronomicon.
isn’t this about the time someone tells that awful joke about the lesser of two weevils?
Do tell, do tell, I haven’t heard it… but I have heard this one…
What do you get when you cross a burro with a Vadalia onion?
Whoops, that’s Vidalia…
The answer: a piece of ass that will bring a tear to your eye.
This year I am planning on wearing clothes that have gotten paint on them, and putting a bandage around my ear. Van Gogh is a bit surreal for Halloween, but it is an easy costume.
Marina, this is completely sincere. I think I love you. You are gorgeous, intelligent, clever and funny. OK maybe I just have a little buzz on from getting the first comment in. But really, you’re great. If I thought I stood even the slimest chance, I swear I’d ask you to marry me.
I sence a “restraining order” in the making.
BOO
Won!
…almost…
Hey, I got here first this is so cool
