loved it. i think all 3 of the matrix movies (im not including matrix animated) are awesome
Oh lovely Lady Marina, what appreciation I feel for your glorious teaching! You ARE the matrix for all of us lowly students! (So far I’ve found it based more in ’source of servants’ uprising’.)
I now realize that your job is not ‘to give us all the answers,’ but rather to inspire us to find the answers for ourselves and our [families].
Still, someone’s got to [stir] the servants to turn to you and follow, someone who pledges his stirrer to you and you alone (as many would gladly do!)
I just found a Matrix Text effect for anyone who wants to pimp up their web site.
Marina, I would like to invite you to be my matrix.
@swampwiz: As you can see from what I posted above, she already is a Matrix!
I thought it was good, the best part of it though was the final fight between Neo and Agent Smith just epic!!!
By the Way Marina have you done the word EPIC before? I’m curious on its origin…
Woop! Woop! Woop! Woopie’s here put the toilet seat down.
Emotions, from happy to sad
Sad to happy
OMG how often do i say that… never…
Have you tapped into the Job Market yet?
I think the unemployment rate here in Canada went up 1% last month & everybody seems to be panicing.
In the 80’s it was 5% at least, higher than it is now, no panic & interest rates were like 14% & higher. no panic.
The power of the media drives the frenzy level up exponentially (I don’t have time to check my spelling today)
If you get some Job experience James, Make sure it’s a job where you deal with real people, it’ll be an eye opener for you I’m sure. Oh! & makes sure it’s “F-U-N”… I had a riot (almost literally) when I was young in my first few jobs.
He needs to learn what it is to pull weeds…………artificial intelligence proves its civility
does he eat?…job to rob 
The 1% must be those lazy ass French-Canadians, I always see them in warm climates in the winter.

Is it me, or does the internet seem a little shitty lately? I sometimes can’t even open my Yahoo! account for some reason. I don’t know if it’s the computer or the time of day. But I don’t think it has been compromised, since I have a strong password.
It’s not just you. I think the snow is stretching the wires a bit too much.

Nap Time night Marina and gang.
Have a good nap John. See you when you awaken.

201st Comment!
You musta been glued to the TV on Grammy nite.
LOL My wife & son’s girlfriend were all over, commenting about CU’s outfit… funny, I just enjoyed the show, she’s got “talent”
Actually I went to bed after Carrie’s performance. I don’t care much for award shows! It was an “interesting” performance.

‘os a lot of spots.
1) Although this video has had over 31,250 views, it is no where on YoutTube’s Most Viewed pages; any idea why? I suppose only a few at google know — so a better question would be: have there been previous HFW lessons that were in such a situation?
2) Is it my cache or something such thing or does the YouTube browse page now have Most Viewed as its dafault (albeit second) tab?
It’s your cache.
That’s what annoys me, why is it that when that when you refresh a page it still sometimes shows the crap you had seen ages ago!
What page are you going by now for a new video upload?
If Marina did something like this http://www.youtube.com/user/LKGProductions She would get away with it and its so funny. You think its really filthy at first but underneath its SOOOOOOOO Hilarious
Ha! Like a girl would know how far away a football field length is.
Quite funny – Nucular Fizzicysts
Why does it say they’re not girls? Am I going to have to watch all 26 videos to check for Adam’s Apples?
You and me too Bob.
Just make sure the two of you do not make a video of yourselves watching these 26 vids, “Two Dudes in a Shower” is something that I think the world is not yet ready.
Don’t worry, Bob, it ain’t going to happen.
The world may not yet be ready, but I’m sure it’s out there somewhere … along with the truth.
Bob, the snow is over…
Oh yes they are. Here it is. Two dudes in a shower.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_mY198_Aw9c
That is the most erotic thing I have ever seen.
I soo do not want to know how you even found that..
Bob you have got to watch this one and see what you think at the end of the video. I am not making any insinuations, but.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HTupNGd3Wu4&feature=channel_page
this is the first one i saw and i thnk the most funny http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N4o1RQBKw5M&feature=PlayList&p=35BFB3AEF60CFB48&index=0&playnext=1
I just watched them all Bob. No Adams apple.
I’ll never get that tune out of my head.
Thanks for the warning – can’t watch any YouTube at the moment – UK servers must be flooded with people staying at home because of the snow.
Porno music, no wonder & they are girls for sure
Don’t see any Adam’s apples here, boys.
James, lower down the page you wrote:-
and now we’re getting pregnancy test ads from Giggle.
NO WAY! Maybe I have set a trend ok……. Flowers! let me know what happens
OK. Flowers – showers – Marina could tell us why the thing the water comes out of is called a [rose].
A rose by any other name would make you just as wet.
HAHA!
So did I.
Good find James, I never heard of 2 Hot Girls….
I couldn’t be bothered to go on a porn site, and I wasnt in the mood for that any way, so I just typed hot girls and clicked #1 But I don’t think they are all that… Maybe if marina was involved….”and we like it that way!”
Look at the stat of this messy thread!
Marina, I want to be your patrix.
Real men don’t pay for their tricks!
Marina I have a word request of [Retirant]. Does it have anything to do with a tyrant? I know some of us on here are retirants, but I wanted to keep the word in use as it came from the save the word, words page.
Do you mean “recalcitrant”
1 resisting authority or control; not obedient or compliant; refractory.
2. hard to deal with, manage, or operate.
–noun
3. a recalcitrant person.
Or do you really just want to say we are ‘retirees’
perhaps recalcitrant retirant
“If the shoe fits”
Yea the shoe fits very well.

A retirant is a chemical used by employers to reduce the workforce by shedding older workers. It works by activating the goof-off center of the brain, which starts the employee desperately seeking ways to retire. When the employees are not looking, a company human resources worker will casually saunter by their desks or work stations and spray a mist on the workers. The mist induces an almost irresistable urge to leave and play golf.
It’s true, I tell you.
Capman911: Do you remember that guy who dropped by the station and showed you a spray bottle of “engine polish.” Now you know.
Yea I remember him and her very well. It WAS the Human Resources Department that came by that day and sprayed me and said good by. But when I retired from my job I got to keep all of my Fire Fighting gear and insignias and badge. About $3000.00 worth of equipment. I had just gotten a brand new set of turn out gear and leather boots. My son is breaking in the boots at the fire department he is on. Miss the people though, but not the BS.
I guess you’re getting plenty of BS here in hotforwords, especially from CK and me.
Naw I love it. BS and all.
If you guys are going to talk about me, please use my name. Using my initials does not fool me. I’m not toopid, ya know…
I thought retirant was a chemical that you drop from helicopters to put out forest fires.
They push us out of helicopters too.

Marina,
I, like most men, have the propensity to allow our minds to swim in the warm waters of the gutter. I am sure you have been asked to elaborate on a few of these words but one has my appetite for your wisdom piqued. Could you give me the origins of the word [ cunnilingus ]?
Scott
PS I have also wanted to learn to speak Russian, could you occasionally give us the Russian translation on some of your words?
We already know that Lady M is a cunning linguist.
I have suggested in the past that M should knock off a Russian version of each lesson and put it on a Russian version of her site, but no response. I have also suggested that commonly-used phrases have foreign language equivalents (and their explanations) given from a group of native-speaking consultants, but no word back on that either.
or maybe just add the Russian equivalent of the word, for instance, the Russian word for Matrix. Spell it out in English, Russian, and Cryllic, and give us the Russian pronunciation. That would be 2
.
Umm… you mean you want Marina to make a painting of the word in acryllic?
Isn’t lipstick more her medium?
Contratulations thoughtonfire on being one of the winners.
As Bob said on the GTW Game page, where does one even begin without knowing the definition. These are awesome and challenging brain teasers for sure and again I learned something new. I love these games. Also, excellent video. That horn dog Gorby cracks me up. Where is she? That’s what he said. Too funny.
Is there a way on Twitter that when someone sends you a regular comment it will show up in your email. If I get a direct message it shows up, but I was wondering about the general messages.
This is to anyone.
No email on replies, but when you look in the “replies” box of your twitter page you see the replies… only your followers see your replies… but if you reply to someone that doesn’t follow you, the reply shows up in their reply box… make any sense?
Yes it makes sense. I wish the regular comments could show up in the email as I don’t check my Twitter to often. I miss some comments for a day or two until I check it.
Yah! but when thousands of people start to follow you, and they will, your email account would explode.
When you want to check just your replies click on the @replies, then you can just see who replies to you.
The home page is the default page
You go into ‘Settings’ and custom tailor your replies under the ‘Notices’ tab
How do I add a picture to my Twitpic page for my avatar. I have one on my Twitter page but can’t figure out the twitpic thingy.
Mike you don’t have a ‘Most Visited’ tab in your tool bar.
My Twitter email account is not my main account so I don’t see incoming emails.
But with the ‘Most visited’ tab I’ll just open a tab and check it out often.
Thanks Che.
Hey Mike, I don’t know of a specific Twitter app that does what you ask for, but there are many apps that do fancy things for you.
Maybe twhirl.org might do what you need. I haven’t checked into the details. Also, Google “twitter with firefox” and you’ll see a many twitter plugins for FireFox. Or search, “twitter apps for windows”. Some of the Twitter apps act like an email client where you are notified of incoming twitters and you can read them as if they were email. Sorry, I don’t have a recommendation, but if I find one, I’ll let you know.
Thanks Karl, I’ll check into the plugins for FF and see what they have and look around the internet for something like that. But it could be a disaster like BillyB said if you start getting a lot of twitter emails it could be a head ache.
Click this link it’s the help page for Twitpic answer is the first question
can you look the origin of the word Blog
blog = Web log
Also note the instructions at the top of the reply dialog box regarding putting requests in square brackets. That’s how she finds them now. (By using the brackets, her assistant no longer has to be able to read.)
Are we or are we not in the matrix?
Frankly, there is simply no known method known to humanity that’s capable of unraveling this mystery once and for all.
Which would you choose, Marina? The blue pill, or the red pill?
The last matrix movie was not as good as the first.
I was just wondering why your “caption” read “I’m the one”?
Is Marina married? I’d be heartbroken but happy.
Aside from that, with valentines day coming up,
Where did the word flower come from?
flow = to go with,
-er = suffix, someone who does
I go with the flow a lot, but I’ve never considered myself a flower.
Hi, since there is so much talk about the financial crisis I would like to now the etymology of the word [bankrupt] if i am not wrong this is a kind of interesting story which has its roots in the roman empire. I also would like to know the etymology of [pleonasm] and [oxymoron] if u don’t mind. Thanks a lot ; )
Hi Chapultepec,
Marina has done Oxymoron; click here.
["Bankrupt"] comes from the Italian “banca rotta” or “broken bench.” Interesting story, I hope Marina does it.
¿Es Ud. de México? Yo he visitado a Chapultepec — el parque y el castillo, y las estatuas de los Niños Heroes.
Can you [omit] this word?
I hope you do realize that you are literally asking M to not do your word.
I asked her if she can avoid it. If she can’t here we go.
I didnt watch last matrix movie! sorry!
I didn’t see any of them. I’m not sorry at all.
Hi Camp,
Haven’t seen you yet at the ‘Pun My Word Forum. It’s not exactly up a lazy river by the old mill stream, but might be good for a few chuckles.
You left out a letter in the clue.
.
Recently, there has been the news story of a mother of six children who has given birth to eight more. It might be appropriate for the YouTube title to cash in on this news item, perhaps, “Birthing octuplets” or “Mother of fourteen” etc.
In my opinion, it is proper for only an animal to be a matrix. A human female, such as the woman in the news, who makes herself into a matrix is behaving irrationally.
The primary purpose of sex in humans is enjoyment (not procreation); birth-control and, in instances when that fails, abortion are proper human actions.

I did not like the first Matrix movie, and saw none of the sequels.
The “we are living the dreamers dream” plot line is overused to me, and Keanu Reeves is not that great of an actor.
I know I am in the minority on this one, but she did ask.
Marina,
HOLY CRAP! Saw your tweet. Are you saying the couple that fists together stays together?
I don’t know how this popped into my head.
But whatever, I will share…
Most of the world’s babies, are born with a clear image of our dear teacher on the brain, for a brief period of time! How do I know that? Well I do, and I can prove it.
You didn’t notice it because they all stutter: MA…MA-MA.. MARINA
Keep your ears open next time a baby tries to say her name, and give it a little guidance. Yea, we’ll make subscribers out of all of them, we just need to remind them a little, that’s all.
Don’t know about you, but I really made myself laugh with this one.
OK, speaking of laughs…
If we have Fractured French and Elliptical English, surely we need Ruptured Romanian and Russian!
BTW 5AM your time, right? I think you need some sleep!
No I don’t! Exam is in two hours
Ruptured RO and RU are cool… It makes me want to learn them both.
Oh, I flabbergasted myself once again.
Bet I can’t learn Russian in the same amount of time it took me to make myself conscious of the fact that I already know Romanian.
Maybe Marina would like to provide free video courses for us.
New channel opportunity? Or am I thinking to far?
HW: It’s been awhile, but I think I liked it. Just very [weird]. (That’s also my word request: [WEIRD]
BTW Marina,
My apologies for all the silly obnoxious twitterpated things I said to you while I had a crush on you. As opposed to all the other silly obnoxious things I say on this site.
Funny, she doesn’t look crushed!
How did you manage to crush her without leaving any marks?
I just don’t understand English any more!
Oh, I just said a mouth full.
This is gold!
REQUEST
[crush] – [have a crush on someone]
Does that mean you’re cured?
Or are you just being a ham?

Hey Chemikal, you got flabbergasted just now, didn’t you?
Yes, I was… wow, thanks Chemikal!
Dude, you’re talking to yourself!
You’re loosing it… All those exams are taking their toll on you man, try to take it easy.
Just two more to go, but these allnight-ers aren’t helping too much. I can’t concentrate enough not to get chronically bored, every time I look away from the book.
Hi Chemikal,
There’s a full moon tonight. For a quick break from boredom, I suggest getting away from books and computer, stepping outside and howling at it. Always works for me!
If nothing else, it kills everyone else’s boredom as they go out to see what the hey is going on. 
Full moon really? Haven’t you morphed into a claymore-wielding werewolf yet?
Oh my, forgot about it! I must go!!
Naa, moon doesn’t rise here for another — let’s see — two min…BWAAA HAHAHAHAHA
WATCH OUT PEOPLE!!! EVAN IS MORPHING!!!
He looks hungry,RUN AWAY!
So scary!
Noooo, I can’t, I’m too skeered!
It’s just crawling with vampires and werewolves at this time of night!
Piece of cake! You can calm down the werewolves with pepermints and chocolates, and give some fresh garlic from gran’ma kitchen to the vampires. They’ll become as dociles as kittens and puppies.
Right, and that’s suppose to make me feel any better?
Nop, this doesn’t make me feel safer at all!
Aw come on Chemikal. Don’t paranoy yourself. These are pesky little suckers. Just strap on your best pair of caligulas.. erm.. I mean your best pair of steel-capped leather boots and kick their sorry butts out of the way!!
Uh, they pee on you?
Absolutely washable. Provided they are not skunks!
I thought all those critters were in Transylvania. Aren’t you in Bucharest?
And if I accidentally run into one, you’d have me tell it the same story?
“Uhm… weren’t you supposed to be in Transylvania?”
They are everywhere now… check my post “this”-”that” post above.
Whatever…if your eyes get too tired, just give the book-a-rest.
Book-a-rest. They are Hungry for a pun like that.

Marina,
How come there are video responses on YouTube, some over 2 min long, that have nothing to do with HotForWords?
Did you actually approve them, or is someone trying to cash in on your audience? Did you approve a short word request video, and did they then change the video to a long video unrelated to HFW?
–Hs4Mm
.
I’m going to keep trying. No way I can lose forever. I mean, odds are that eventually I’ll get a win… right?
Absolutely right!
Hell, I’m so dumb I’ve only gotten one correct.
Ohhh… no, don’t worry about it!
This just means that you’re a much healthier man because of it.
Do you remember the sensation you got right after she announced the correct word, and just before she naughtyfied us of the winners? You know, that light pounding in your ears… the sound of blood pumping, rushing through your brain.
Well, imagine some of us had to go through that each time.
If my brain can match up to the word games, my heart sure can’t!
Good luck on the next games.
Marina, would you please make a play-list on YouTube for the GTW games?
Thanks — can see the list.
Hi Marina,
I would like to request the phrase: [ what goes around comes around ] any ideas on the origin?
Thanks
Jordi
My succotash wish…
I never saw the “Matrix 3″ fully. {Don’t hit!} The word “Mater” has been used in a Dario Argento horror movie trilogy known as the “Three Mothers”. In the first movie, “Suspiria”, the witch was refered to as ” Mater Suspiriorum”-the Mother of Sighs. In the sequel the second “Mother” was called ” Mater Tenebrarum”-the “Mother of Darkness/Shadows. In the final movie-”The Mother of Tears” she was “Mater Lachrimarum”.
@fatheroftears
Finally the trilogy of the Three Mothers is complete as Asia Argento gracefully waltzes into the third episode. Shivers run down my spine… Oooohhh… Rome will never be the same
If a matrix is a female kept for breeding purposes, how did the term ‘matrix’ come to mean an array of numbers used for solving ( among other things ) simultaneous equations?
A ( mathematical ) matrix can be added, subtracted, and multiplied ( but NOT divided; although if the matrix is invertible you can multiply by its inverse) to or by another matrix ( with constraints to their relative sizes – a little bit complicated to explain here ).
Enquiring minds want to know.
.
orion_ss1,
From the meaning “womb”, matrix went on to mean
In solving a set of simultaneous linear equations, the symbols used for the variables are irrelevant — the essence of the solution lies in the coefficients and the vector on the right. To solve the equations, one performs row and column operations on the rectangular arrangement of numbers — so
.
Hence the term “matrix” is appropriate to the rectangular arrangement of numbers one writes out for solving the set of equations.
As I wrote in Comment 13 below, I wish I had known this when I first learnt about matrices!

I think Reloaded is the most action packed … come to think of it , I’m going to download the whole set , don’t really understand what the movies meant because i watched them when i was a kid ==
I WON!!!!
Can’t stop ——>

I’ve been naughtified
DUDE!! Congrats
Nice work, thoughtonfire!
Hey PT9 whaaassssuuppp.
Haven’t seen you around in a while. I thought you were through with school? Or have you just been goofing off some where? Glad to see you back.
Cp911= Mike
Thanks, Mike. Whoa, talk about your traveling incognito… I would never have recognized you without the fishbowl
!
Yes to both. After all, looking for work is the equivalent of goofing off, at least in this here economy, anyway.
I guess I should be out trying to make an honest living instead (stealing hubcaps & mugging gradeschoolers for lunch money)! Seriously, I wish I could have stayed in school for a couple more semesters just because the job market is such a bottomless pit. But NO-O-O!
Congratz TOF you have been
Naughtified
Thank you!
I almost forgot HW: I’ve watched all of the Matrix Movies. Me and my brother went to see the first one 7 times in the theaters and I fell asleep the last time.
We made website together too http://www.angelfire.com/ut/thematrix/
Good work thoughtonfire!!!
Looks awesome… but if I may suggest something… please adjust the font for the poor sighted. A lot of people that surf the web often have bad eyes. Damn the TVs and the computers, it’s totally their fault.
Sorry,
We lost the password years ago, cannot change anything. We made all of it in one weekend. And a lot of the links don’t work anymore, and there was some sounds on the website too. And a lot of abstract art by my brother. There were also polls, like which pill to take, red or blue?
Way to go, thoughtonfire!
Look at you big guy! Way to go!
Yes, you have been naughtified,
and I didn’t know matrix came from an female ain-imal…so great
Thanks

I thought you apologized and said you would quit shitting all over the HFW site.
I lied! No, what I said was I wouldn’t just see something and hack it. I have been trying YouTube ATM.
Anyone understand why the title on YouTube is “I’m the one”? If you know, please explain!
OMG!! WHAT IF SHE IS PREGNANT!!!
or an animal used for repoduction..
Dam the rabbit died. Oh know Marina is pregnant. We started another rumor.
If you want to know what I think Marina, I think that GTW should be once a fortnight. Otherwise. We lose a lesson on the game and all the comments are the same which can be quite boring seeing everyone just posting what the last person posted.
Did you know you left the X out of “GTW Game IV Answer” in both places. Just a FYI.
I liked all of the Matrix movies.
HA! So she did, I normally point that stuff out but I am no good with roman numbers… Are you new here?
for those of you who are N.Y. Yankee fans you have to b very disappointed on what you all heard today . I’ve seen why A-Rod or I should say A-Fraud was so good in 2001-2003 with the Texas Rangers
. I’m glad the Chicago Cubs did not sign him.
Like how you left the vagina comment in there!
I didn’t hear her say anything about a vagina!
If you were watching you would have seen it.
Ok I watched it again and still didn’t hear or see it.
It’s there.
But where?
You will find it
LOOK PEOPLE!! THIS IS HOW A THREAD SHOULD BE!!
NOT SCATTERED ALL OVER THE PLACE LIKE
SOMEMOST OTHERS!!Well you don’t have to yell. I think the thread is like it should be. I don’t see it scattered any where.
I mean this thread is brilliant! Look at all the others. This one goes how it should!! Not just randomly
Just screwing with you James. This is Capman911.
WTF!!! How is it you? Why don’t you have your border… and ting?
I am using Moose and Squirrel’s login and just changed the gravatar and the name.
Is this better.
Sad sack sounds sad… Makes me feel bad… HMM twitter. FollOw Me!
I am already following you on Twitter.
I know, I just felt like saying it. Yay! I have the longest thread………
Well how much more can we add to your thread.
Your last video was great. Can’t wait for the next one.
Thanks. I just feel down sometimes that the only people that seem to comment on my videos are people from here. Also the only time I ever get semi decent views are when the video has someone else other than me in it.. I can’t get recognized off the back of others work all the time can I, it’s so fucking annoying. I haved stopped spiking my own views too, which I wish I hadn’t because now I see how few views I get. I know these things don’t come straight away but, I have been doing videos for a year now… And I still don’t have much in the way of views. But in people I have met on the net, it’s brilliant.
We all get that way from time to time so pick out one of your most favorite Marina videos and watch it and you will feel a whole lot better.

I originally posted to the wrong place.
When you’re young, the lenghth of your thread matters way to much. It’s a clitche’, but what matters more is how you use it. The “thread”
I didn’t care for the Matrix Trilogy.
I bailed on 2 and 3 (just saw bits and chunks of 3 while traveling on biz at some hotel many years back but to a first order approximation it appeared unwatchable) but 1st I thought creative and thought provoking; liked the “virtual comic book brought onto screen” in the opening sequence, very memorable when the chick in tight black outfit jumped through the window went ass over applecart down the stairs and bounced up with the two guns waiting for the Agent; also the phone booth escape just following was exciting. I’d give it my vote for best action movie scene ever. At that point on first view im sittin there going wtf?!?! … really a good setup for the rest of the flick. Intentional bail on 2 and 3 not to ruin the good memory of 1. Dig good comics greatly and a good comic book based movie = utopia of entertainment for this here nerd.
I guess some movies were best not to be made into trilogies. I can think of a few other trilogies where the 1st one was good and the other 2 sucked ass, such as Pirates of the Carribean and The Never Ending Story.
The book, The Never Ending Story is very good. It is another of those muli-levels-of-understanding type of “children’s books” that have an awful lot to tell us all, similar to Lord of the Rings trilogy and The Chronicles of Narnia. I highly recommend all these.
Aloha-aloha sexy teacher!
Just like a Hessian quadratic matrix, and although a bit hard to compute in practice, the functional determinants shaping up your local curvature are very well defined (colour-independant) and almost perfectly tuned.
You are without a doubt a very unique medium-scaled optimization coefficient of some local Taylorian expansional magmatic function. I presume you can climb a rock whenever you want to and wherever you choose to.

Be great For you to do The Word : BLACK
Black is Not a Colour of the Rainbow …But i think its a Colour .
Why was it called black…..i hope marina you investigate
Dear Marina,
While recently playing a game of [euchre], another player referred to the 4 cards left over after dealing the hands as the [kitty]. I have heard the term used to refer to a spare supply of cash but can you get to the bottom of the meaning of [kitty]? And while you’re at it, how about [euchre]?
Hi, Marina
were did the word [octuplets] come from that means 8
and why does the word october mean 10 not 8.
Originally, October was the eighth month in the Roman calendar. At some point, July and August were added (for the Julians and Emperor Augustus presumably). I guess they wanted summer to last longer.
Hey Marina,
Since you are the word expert maybe you can help. The longest technical word belongs to a protein that is important to muscle tissues. The word is 189,819 letters long. How do you pronounce this word and how did they come up with it? The link for the word is below, thanks.

I did like Matrix. All of them
Congratulations thoughtonfire and cherleader1234569!
I’m glad you’re back from the Grammy Awards. I hope you enjoyed the event. Was the music better live and in person than on TV? I hope you took some photos.
I never saw any of the Matrix movies. They weren’t interesting to me. I never liked Trix cereal, either. It was too sugary. Probably unhealthy, too.
Actually the trix part should have been “Trix are for hairs” as there are no native rabbits in North America, they are actually hairs.

Hello Marina,
This was a very good Game — Congratulations on its Construction and Execution! Please make the next one very hard too.
Regarding “It’s weird what matrix used to mean, right?” Yes. I wish I had know this when I first heard the word in Algebra class — things would have made much more sense and would have been easier to grasp. I had just assumed “matrix” was an arbitrary sound mathematicians came up with.
In ancient times, was matrix used predominantly for any one particular type of animal? Cow? Mare? Hen?
It is also odd that matrix is singular. One would think people kept one or a few male animals (e.g., stallions) and several females for reproduction — so one would expect a collective noun for “female animals kept around for reproductive purposes”.
What is the masculine form of matrix? Aviator-aviatrix, matron-patron … so “pator”
? Stallion?

Good question, hs4mm.
My initial reaction was “stud” but that can apparently apply equally to brood mares and other matrices as well as to the establishment that keeps them.
Marina, [what's the male equivalent of a Matrix]?
This may be the start of a new “Reverse Guess the Word Game”.
The homeys of Etymologia would like to know how HOTFORWORDS of The Republic of LEXICON: gets her pretty clothes [washed]? Because, I just done did it with my wash machine. I had already washed with other means; so, maybe HotForWords could investigate [soap] and [suds] and Marina’s first musical instrument (all clean freaks): the {wash-board(limestone slab)}.
thank you & God bless you and ecetera

Matrix Movie Mistakes
Hi, sorry for not talking to you for ages!
Marina,
Did you like the Grammys?
I watched the whole show… checked out all the blondes walkin by in the background lol (lotsa blondes there… whew). Been lookin’ for evidence of Marina’s presence at the show, let me know if you find anything else besides the twitpic. I’m getting too distracted
….Ha Ha lol, Gorby wants to know where his matrick is at, no wonder he destroys his toys he must be sexually frustrated and horny.
takes 1 to know one
“WTF…Breeding anti-inbreeding…oh God my washer is shaking”! Hope you haven’t broken it so early in the day
Good morning, your up I’m surprise
…you’re up….
So we want details from last night, come on dish, who did you meet.
LATE

Present.
The problem with the Matrix series is that the first five minutes of the first movie are the best from the whole set. Cool effects.
Oh yeah! Canned rats! tof. Good job.
How about the origins of the word Tattoo. I’ve heard several possible and not so probable ideas, not nothing solid.
.
Slainte, Irish_ink
[Tattoo] probably comes from the Gaelic [Tuatha] Dé Danann and the designs they painted on themselves.
Or maybe not probably. 
Yes I liked the last Matrix Movie not as well as the first two however.
I can’t make out what trix denotes as a suffix … “latin feminine agent/asian mouse”? (Write this out?) I have not seen any matrix movie.
Yes hs4mm. That is exactly what she said. Why does this seem so odd to you?
.
Oh Good that I am hearing what she is saying!
In aviatrix, administratrix, dominatrix etc. trix is denoting a female agent.
What’s the mouse for?
She said “Latin feminine agent noun”
Thanks (nouns, with s).
