Book Signing in Los Angeles
Come meet me at Book Soup this Thursday, October 1st at 9:30pm. Information here.
Oh.. and New York was a BLAST! Thank you all for showing up!
Please rate, favorite and comment over at YouTube. Thanks! Marina
The thumbnail pic is from one of the pics in my book.. here is the full pic:










CrazyboyLA at Youtube posted a 5 minute vid of the event:

I’m in it too! You can see my back in a Black Shirt at 1:27 if you don’t blink.
I think it’s about time the word [ululate] got some attention! Onomatopoeically outstanding!
Ollie, I like your word request too.&.of WIKI.[Ululation
is also commonly used in funerals of martyrs in the Muslim world, since they are believed to be going to Jannah. It may also be used to encourage belly dancing. In the Middle East, zaghareet is an ululation performed to honor someone. In East Africa, ululation (or ililta) performed by worshippers is a feature of services in the Ethiopian Orthodox and Eritrean Orthodox Churches, and is also commonly used in secular celebrations such as parties or concerts]…Life in Africa: Song & Ululation
Hah! Thank you Leonard…but I know what it means! I studied Latin all through secondary school and university, and I know from where it was probably derived (ululare – “to shriek, howl”). Mainly, however, I really want to see Marina explain it, and then I want to see her rendition of how a ululation should really be!
Thanks for the reply though!
I’d like to request the word [kudos].
i would like to request the word [sophomore]
I see my favorite widget is back.
And also George is a happy camper.
George had a bad day
Would you post a print-screen that captures George?
Just got back from a short trip to LA.
I was strolling down Sunset about a block from the Viper Room and had the surprise of my life!
Big commotion in front of a BookStore – I got most of it on video.
I’ll post my POV on my YT Channel after I clear the camera and do some editing.
How Fun!
The vid is active on YouTube now:

It seems a little ‘jiggy’ tho – I’ll work on that tomorrow…
I was first…Good job !!!
Thanks for great footage Jody. I just watched on my iPhone.
Great, thanks for sharing
firefighters to cool the hot lady.
What a gentleman, to hold the helmet over her head, so not ruining her hair.
Book signing was a BLAST! I have fun stories to tell as well!!!
Thank you all for coming out. I’ll make a post about it tomorrow.
Goodnight
Great
…life is good

I am puzzled by the things people do or don’t do. I would have expected people to comment on the ad for your game when it first showed up sporadically (it now shows up with much more frequency) — but no one did. There is a 5 min or so long video of this event that includes you talking to the visitors; I would have expected someone to link to that video here, but no one has, not even the author of the video!
I did comment on the ad when I first saw it a long time ago; I did not mention the video of the event since I wanted to see if anyone else would. Not even the author mentioned it here! So strange!
Sorry I wasn’t able to make it to your book signing Marina.
I heard you had a Fire sale going on.
Looking forward to the video of this book signing.
Hi Marina,
Congrats on your book signing! Sounds like you had a wonderful time! I have a origin request for [enfeoff].
Semper Fi.
I’d love to help you pick up the books you dropped
and have them signed but I had a doctor’s appointment and didn’t have the time to get to LA after it.
But I did want to ask for a word request since I had run into someone that had commented on your interview for Current TV and somehow couldn’t believe the kind of success you have been able to achieved from your videos on YouTube.
I tried explaining it to him several times but he was such a [Doubting Thomas] that he couldn’t accept it since he maintained “She is a dime a dozen I could find one just like her in 60 minutes on the street!”
I told him “I would put money on the improbability of finding someone on the street with 2 advanced degrees in philology and the ability to write, act in, edit and promote the kind of lessons that Marina does.”
He was so stubbornly insistent about not admitting to any of your accomplisments that I told him that [denial] was much more than just a river in Egypt and I suggested he get treatment for Irrational Disbelief Syndrome since he was blindly dismissing any facts I produced about it.
Maybe if you did a video dealing with [Doubting Thomas] that are in a state of [denial] it would help bring them out of the darkness of willful ignorance and into the light of reason.
Maybe Sunbathing on Mars was for those of us who couldn’t make the signing and had to stay home. Thank you.

One of Marina’s “favorited” videos: “Tonight’s going to be a good night!” http://bit.ly/Y3YFp says it all about being at the bookstore tonight! The spirit of happy love in the most highly and well-produced music videos I’ve ever seen (and I was a founding member of the LA Video Music Alliance in 1979. This video is wonderful!)
Hey Mo, I sent you a Youtube message about your great new lipstick and how-since August and the racetrack- you’ve inspired me to develop a “franchise” for my pitch meetings in January (especially for the second-out book, “Son of a Planet”(I got .com last week).
To think that you, a former young pioneer, are on Sunset Strip tonight and in Beijing today they were wearing miniskirts in formation…what a planet! Go Girl!
Curly
***Word request***
[cobble together]
as in, to put together clumsily from crude or imperfect materials.
E.g.
The Afghans are attempting to cobble together a coalition government..(Ooo — I gave Bob a straight line!)
CuSith
and manalishi
Two words Request
CuSith is an enormous hound of the Scottish Highlands. It is said to be a dark green in color, with a long braided tail and the size of a bullock.
The only manalishi I ever heard of was Green and rocked!
Any help? I just wanted to get JP in there, any ol’ way
Love the roots…long live [roots]_-_-_-_-_[][][]_-_-_-_Fleetwood Mac blues band live – shake your money maker & heart beats like a hammer
I dare this word request….[road-kill]…Marina “rules”
work is calling me ‘lazy’
[stoned]
BTW What made you pick Dead black dog?
The dead is alive…Can a Woman Prong a Man?
cat animals…go panthers…go lions…
Why it’s so hard to put sex in the dictionary.
…[bengals]
Cú Sidh means “dog fairy” or “fairy hound” in Gaelic. The “cú” (dog) appears also in the nickname of Setanta, “Cú Chullain” (Colin’s Hound). “Sidh” is seen in “Bain Sidh” (”fairy woman”, rendered into English as “banshee”), and in the famous O’Carolan harp tune, Sidh Beagh, Sidh Mhor (Big fairy, little fairy.)
But obviously the “sidh” are not always the dainty little fairies we think of; sometimes they’re ghostly, fearsome supernatural beings.

Hi!I’d like to request the origin of the word [Breadwinner].I mean I know it means the person in the family with the most money but why Bread??
Did you know that you can post your favorite
HotForWords video lesson in the Forum?
Here is the link and the directions in how to
post your favorite HotForWords video lesson.
also recently learned the origin of the word [slave]. Those people of color with whom i’ve shared the origin were quite surprised to learn that the original ’slaves’ were from europe, and how much longer a period of time these people suffered from European ’slave raids’ than did the africans. perhaps you might want to look into this one.
That poem was good. I don’t think he was talking about you though, just saying that the woman in the poem was as hot as you are.
hey, if you like poetry, why don’t you set up a section on your website specifically for people to post their stuff?
but also I have word and phrase requests.
1. I would like to request the phrase [baited breath]
2. I would like to request the word(s?) [lollygag]
[BLUEBLOOD]
[TRUE BLUE]
[ALL SHE WROTE]
Grassy-ass, Dear Teach.
YOu definately did create a market for your book with your silly suggestive videos. Someone once told me in a letter about writing short magazine articles on the end times to try to create a market for my little books. Maybe my two Mobipocket.com ebooks might be offered for sale through Borders, who knows. I am beyond caring.
Do you agree with the Mayans and Nostradamus that the end of time is 2012?
Jesis in the Bible said NO ONE KNOWS THE DAY OR HOUR ONLY HS FATHER IN HEAVEN. But with the beginning of the nuclear age wiht the atom bombing of Hiroshima in 1945 it looks like the e3nd approaches. Even Maxim magazine once had an article of the 15 most violent war hotspots in the world today. And of course, the Jews going back to Israel after WWII is like the “swallows returning to Capistrano” signalling that spring is near. World just gets crazier and crazier until we all destroy ourselves!!!
Yeah! Those pesky Israelis! Now they are bitching about Iran having the bomb. I mean, what have they got to worry about? The solid, unequivocal strength of our president will save them!!
BTW, Netanyahu’s speech to the UN was one of the best ever
“Have you no shame?!”
IDEA
Why don’t we just put Netanyahu and Ahmidinajad in the ring. I know that N was an IDF commando and head of Mossad which means that whatever A was is irrelevant. Bee thinks he would resemble an ink stain before we would have a chance to stop the whippin’! I can dream, can’t I?!
I do not have any Israeli flags hanging my home as some followers of a certain apocalyptic minister were shown to wave Isreali flags at a church rally. I do not secrelly own any Israeli war bonds (I head them advdrtised on WCBS AM 880 once before. Paul in
Romans did say it was his desire that all Israel would be saved. Yet the earliest persecutors of the christian church were the Jews.
When I began my background research into history pertaining to the end of the world, I bougth a copy of Bernard Grun’s TIMETABLES OF HISTORY and looked up wars and various disasters and jotted them down in a yellow notebook in 1989 which either disappeared or I threw out. My conclusiion was the title THE 1900′S; A CENTURY OF CRISIS. WORLD War I, World War II, the Cold War, the nuclear arms race as contrasted to the Pax Romana of the Roman Empire of the Caesar’s where there was peace. Like the birth pains of the Olivet Discourse the wars of our time and orher disasters justs getting worse and worse until Armageddon.
iran has no bomb.
yet
no
I was wondering where the phrase [Gitchy Gitchy Goo] came from. Its like what people say when they’re tickling someone, what have the words [Gitchy Gitchy Goo] got to do with tickling?
A comment on the thumbnail for this video,nice skimpy black outfit,but look out for that peekaboo wave they can be deadly.Just kidding you are the best!
How did the toxicoligst thing go?
Don’t know yet.. waiting for results.
Prayers said. Fingers crossed.
Marina, hope the book signing went well; I’m sure it did.
When are you coming to visit your overseas fans!! We would love to see our incredible teacher who brings a
to learning.
Such a
For those of you that are going, Have fun.
And try this. Tell her your “nick”name and see if she knows who you are.
Jambo!
By the look of your gravatar, I’d say you are a van loodglazuur vorzien son of a rijk, a little van-meevoeren, von-naaiplombe and vin-besturen also, but only at certain times when you feel wondervurtzeengenireezed like an elektrische geleiding znw. This is of course my personal opinion, and I might be totally wrong on that!
Did I mention that your gravatar + your nickname look like a perfectly equilibrated combination of the von-vin-van-diesel locomotive in a box? Well done, chief!
That’s what everyone does… they did it at ComicCon, NY and will surely do it tonight
Your nickname was Koba?
Extra homework for the ones that go to the booksiging. Where does Koba come from and why was it HFW nickname.
George’s smile looks extra big this evening
Ps the yellow is a hot color, does your site-name good.
Ja see this one-”nick-name”
[Holland]
Thanks Leonard, you are going, aren’t you?
Sorry for the extra homework
The Mermaid I remembered, but Koba….
Give her the dutch kisses.
Hi Marina,
Maybe you could get a substitute teacher(s) so you could go on a book tour! Then we could ALL come out and meet you!
(Oh wait…scarey thought!
)
[oh, brother!] just where did this come from and why “brother”?
If there was ANY way I could justify makng the trip I’d come, Dear Teach. I keep hoping you’ll swing through The Republic some day. I know you’ll be a hit at Book Soup, so have a blast, and continued success, Marina.
Hey Marina, I was just wondering if you could explain the origin of the word [shortcut]. Thanks!
I know your book covers “hot dog” as it refers to the food but [hot dog! not as it refers to the food but as an exclamation of surprise or awe]
When you look for word requests by searching for square brackets, do you get back the entire comment or just the part within the square brackets? I suppose it is more than just the stuff within the square bracket since you would need to know who made the request, but the information about the about the author can be provided without providing the entire comment. So what is it that the search returns?
Not being too terse am I? I don’t get much feedback on what I write, so when I end up being verbose. Personally, I like reading terse writing — in fact, I honed my reading skills while reading math books — those books are extremely terse; a well written math book is so terse that one must spend days on each page to properly understand it!
More on “hot dog” not as noun but as interjection:
“Hot diddly dog!”, supposedly in the closing song for some Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.
“Oh, hot diggity, dog ziggity, boom what you do to me”, a Perry Como song that I do not like.
“Hot diggity dog”, somebody made this up on urban dictionary.
Have you thought about doing [emergency]? Specifically, is there any relation to “Emerge”?
Hey I was wondering if you could find out about the words [chill out]. Very curious about this one. Thanks
@latesthotforwordstwitpic Uh oh. Look where Marina is. I’ve been to that place, it’s like costume supply bonanza. She’ll be there for hours!
at :49 seconds you and Gorby look really good. Sexy gum chewing is OK when we’re not in class!
Maybe sometimes in certain situations it’s probably best to just kick back on the sidelines and just watch.
Can’t make it to your [shindig] down in L.A., but I’ve heard requests for the Seattle area. That would be nice if things work out to where you can come up here.

yeah, what the hell? where the fuck you goìng?

Well, they will certainly be happier after today! Tell them they now own 60% of GM. Tell me, do these people pay taxes? To paraphrase Churchill, ’socialism is a great idea until you run out of other peoples money!’ Change is what was voted in and Change is all your gonna have left. Wait until inflation hits next year, its gonna make the late 70s seem like picnic. People just seem oblivious…

I am gonna mis you.
Ohhh man, what’s the deal Venomrock67?
I like having you around. You offered some great comments and I loved reading them. Love the Zep In The Light. Hope all is well on your end and don’t stay as stranger too long. I wish you well.
VRock didn’t say he was leaving. What’s with the Bon Voyage atmosphere around here(?) Maybe it’s the soft color tones of the sea {site layout}
Kicking back on the sidelines and watching and laughing at us, is kinda like leaving as he is just going to be a lurker. So, if his last sentence wasn’t some kind of au revoir…. Let’s see about his clues…
He’s going on a day trip, but can’t explain it to us since this will be his last time as he heads into the light. Oooohhh, that explains it.
Of course, he’ll be like Evan, he’ll be gone for a few days, and he’ll be back. No one can leave this site. People have tried, but they always keep coming back.
Hi TA Karl
There might be an issue that I have and I have to step back and take a breather……will see.
Peace Bro
Are you going to the “big house”?
Good morning / good night.
No
Never been there, But you’re actually pretty damn close.
This kinda describes the situation i’m in in my personal life.

Hello Marina,I wish you good luck at your book signing . You look sexy and cool
in that go daddy top!Great job at editing all those video’s together.That kid on there is smarter than me,it was also so cute.I see you had Gorby with you at the signing at New York.Thank you for your time.Hope to hear from you soon
Is it worth making a new channel for my new videos?
No.
I was wondering because Misscupacke did it.. Mind you you are huge on youtube and hot4words only has about 1000 subs… I thought maybe a new channel will establish a new audience for me, but last time it didn’t go far… Thanks Marina, I will stay put… By the way, come to Quebec… That is about halfway from me
She’d have to mount a real effort to get there, eh, Bob?
Are you being Contrario again?
I’ll have to send in the SAS to catch you and put you out of our misery.

Hey M. I don’t know if it is just my two computers but the thumbnails you put up like the one at the top where you are dropping the books will not go to a large size when you click on the little green arrow. It will flash back and forth between small and large and revert back to small. I have noticed this with other pictures people have put up that have the same little green arrow to make them larger. Didn’t know if it was a glitch or something.
Hey Mike,
I have never had a problem with the shadow box. If you have several FireFox Add-Ons running, those may interfere with the shadow-box and image sizing since it uses JavaScript. For example, if you are running some kind of pop-up blocker, that could also interfere with the sizing of the image. You could disable one Add-On at a time to see which one is the cause, or if you are running a pop-up blocker or Ad blocker, you could try disabling those.
Hey Pal, I don’t use an add blocker as I click the adds for Marina. After I left the comment for Marina and came back the computer later on the shadow boxes started to work on both computers for me. I don’t know if M did something or not. I tried it in FF and in Explorer 8 and was having the same effect on both browsers. My laptop is getting older and the video card can’t keep up with the newer videos as I get the spinning wheel and the video freezes. This happens on YT and Marina’s site. Thanks for the help as I think I may check and see if my Java script may need upgrading.
By the way Mike, laptop hard drives are typically slower than desktops and if the drive is more than 7% fragmented, it will slow your system down. Yes, I would agree that your system as it get older and log files and the registry grows, your system will get slower. Getting the spinning wheel is one indication of a slow system and might be the reason you don’t see the resizing. I have a very barebones system, which is very fast.
Your JavaScript does not need upgrading as it is integral to your browser. Whenever you upgrade your browser you get the latest JavaScript. Performance of a PC is most critical in order to enjoy all of the new features flawlessly.
Hey Karl, I went back through my add ons and got rid of a few I didn’t use any more. Then I went to msconfig and unchecked some of the items that loads on start up that I really don’t need to load every time the computer starts. Last but not least I went into control panel and deleted out any programs that were useless and just taking up hard drive space. I’ll do a defrag tonight after I go to bed. My Windows Live One Care takes care of my Fire wall and virus protection but it’s not the best when it does a tune up at defragging the hard drive, it leaves items still fragged. So I’ll use xp pro’s defrag to tighten up the files. Thanks for the help.
Great Mike!
Regarding the tweaks you are doing.
Definitely remove as many programs as you can that load on startup as you said. That will free up memory. Before the defrag, you will want to remove the temp/tmp files and other large sized files that you no longer need. Lots of log files can be removed. If heavily fragmented, you may want to do another defrag.
Seattle, Marina! Come sign books in Seattle! Captain Jack and I will serve as your escorts and bodyguards!

I love to come but I live 2 far from L.A. BTW lovely pic
I could be seen in the background of the crowd wide shot. I was holding my camera. My brief foreground appearance–”It’s-it’s great to be here”–is good enough for me.
will you be wearing sandals?
Good luck at the book signing! I’d go but i’m all the way across country.

At first, I thought I was housesitting for a friend that night, but then I discovered it was the following night I’d be housesitting. So I decided to go to Book Soup on Thursday night, and contacted my friends about coming along. But now I’m having trouble with a swollen tonsil and swollen glands, so it is doubtful I’ll be able to make it there unless I get much better in the next few days. : (
Whether I make it or not, I wish you the best, Marina, and am sure you’ll have a great night. Peace and love, Errin : )
p.s. No afterparty planned as of yet?
Hows the video coming along?…St James Infirmary Blues Andy Griffith … Music is music and get well and be HotForWords…love and peace
I shot a music vid of a live performance of my song ‘Here Comes The King’, but it was done on an outdoor balcony and ended up picking up too much street noise. The plan is to re-shoot the video this weekend while I’m housesitting out in La Crescenta, but that might be delayed if I’m not well enough by Sunday. The plan is to shoot two videos of the same song: One a live performance, the other a ‘regular’ video where we’ll dub in the lo fi album recording I have of the song. Then I’ll start up my YouTube channel with both vids, and we’ll see what happens. Marina has very nicely offered to promote my YouTube Channel… well, to be honest, doing a music vid to start up my own YouTube channel was her idea, not mine. I just know how to take very excellent advice when I’m given it.
thanks for the reply
You’d better get better!!
I hope [TEACHER]
…beas are good and just like this site….updates screwed me up..
I’m slowly but surely getting better, Marina. I of course want to be at my best if I’m going to go to one of your events and possibly meet you in person. Kind of hard to look your best when you’ve got swollen glands about the neck area. And who wouldn’t want to look their best when in the presence of the world’s loveliest philologist?
But, hey, if my homework assignment is to get better by Thursday night, I better do as teach says! I’ll most certainly do my best to come through and show up for your fantabulous L.A. book signing. Time will tell…
Peace and love, Errin : )
Great place Book Soup. If they take pesos & I’m in town (by chance) I’ll try to come…

Not the lead, maybe a background vocal. Todd voice has more dept / is wider than the lead on SD Dirty Work.
You’re so nice to people.
What is up with that girls chest 56 seconds in? It looks like it is caved in.
Some recent tweets of yours prompts this question: do you maintain/obtain a sense of pride from the fact that you were born into a fairly rich family and from that you not only smoke, but the cigarettes you smoke are expensive?
No but I a m a little bit of a snob. My yweets were sticking up for spricket24.

Actually its http://www.jamesingtonthethird.com/Characters.html I don’t know what is so important about the captial letter
Good luck at your book signing! I hope it increases sales of your book! I won’t be there, since 9:30 at night is a bit too late for me to be out!

The kid is really cool.
Marina I hope you feel better soon, let’s hope the toxicologist solves the problems.
What a great video compilation and
you with that little boy was too adorable.
I enjoyed this video very much. I saw MCLIJazz, one subscribers
on this site and the guy that recorded his own video.
Be sure she gets this one PK
If this is mold She can have it cleaned. But you need to find the source and thats moisture. Otherwise it will just keep coming back.
Nine out of ten times its water-vapor from the inside of the house.
(Your breath, showering, cooking, etc)
The vapor needs a colder area to condensate on. What you need to do is make sure the air can’t get into the wall!
The other one could be the airco. She did say it didn’t work all the time. And reducing air in temperature results in condensation. Is the drainage of the airco in that position?
Seriously, if it is that it can affect your respiratory health.

If you are at the book signing and you are pretty strong you get to go with her and [ move house ] .
For some reason, I have been thinking Oct 1 was this Saturday! I see the instructions say “5 stars if you like to party
” — I don’t like to party! (I haven’t seen the video yet; need to download and watch, else this pc will crash.)
No homework?
Homework?
I got one for you, delete the word culture. And see how nature is treaded once humans see there part of nature
I am gonna do a wordrequest on that one, but not just now.
I would love to make it….

If she doesn’t get well you automatically get a present at the book signing

the “lead” in leadville refers to the soft, malleable metal lead • wiki. so maybe it would correspond to one of your translations. but it most likely would be one of those names that don’t change with translation.
p.s. i know.. wiki is not the most reliable of sources.. Oo
lol! thanks for the pass on wiki, rijk. btw, is your nick like the english name, “rick”, or is it something else entirely?
“Lead” has so many meanings it’s plumb ridiculous!
[plumb] — how did it get the meaning “absolutely”?
@rijk
cool. that was really an in-depth description of how you got your nick. loved that. mine is taken from the herb, damiana, which is said to be an aphrodisiac. i’ve used it for so long that it feels more like my real name than the one my parents chose for me..
@rijk
you have chosen a really good gravatar to go with it.
But mine is not a nick, its, and I quote you the one my parents chose for me
lol! thanks. i like this gravatar, too.. it’s a hint at one of my fave things..
you’re fortunate that your parents chose your name well. my parents didn’t choose well for me, so i renamed myself. ~smirk~
I wonder if the dutch lead(lood) is where the English load came from?
Damn! I love the way she says that!
Pick van loodglazuur voorzien chief. I think it sounds mighty, ready to influence a pair of poor, weak and unprepared eustachian tubes. I like aanknopingspunt vooorzitten manegen too, but my first choice would definitely be van loodglazuur voozrien. Yes, van loodglazuur vorzien is definitely a winner. OK! I now need to van loodglazuur voorzien my way through my day! Bye bye for now voorzeetten managen de aanwiijzingz!
@rijk
lol.. yeah. but unfortunately i still have to go by the name my parents chose in RL unless i go through a legal name change. which isn’t totally outer limits.. why not?
p.s. you’re a sweetheart..
i didn’t know that you have colorado roots, leonard. that’s cool. leadville isn’t that far from where i live.
Yea thats in there thats Lood. But no village starts with Lood.
Maybe your right and he just says she was form Leadvill Collorado
although I could say its Leiden. That is a city.
Or I could just be losing it.
ps i forgive you on the wiki
I love history…my grandmother was born in Leadville and her father had worked the medical trade…
my grandfather was a topper and worked for Edison’s wood shop{Shiocton} and arrested for refusing to burn his straw crop[hemp]-1930’s
my dads side liked to …[show-off]….rope maker and trainer and ….[Golden Gloves]—[Chicago]…
Damiana says: 1.2.1.1.1 ….thanks for the lead lead!!!
some gold and dope for rail workers{not drunks}
The Irish were not as good of the China-man working…alcohol…from the wiki lead
it is not a nick, my nick was already taken.
its a dutch name, it literally means: wealthy, rich, … nation, kingdom, ruler of the village, … One heck of a name to live up to.
it is related to the Germanic Rik and that sounds the same as Rick.
In English it would sound like Marina’s O’reilly. But only use the sound of rei and ad a “k.
And yours, Is it slang for diamond or … ?
But mine is not a nick, its, and I quote you the one my parents chose for me
A kiss to the lady.
You’re a self-made woman, you even redesigned your name. *\o/*
you don’t do it because you don’t want to hurt your parents.
@leonard
so much cool information in your comment about lead. the one part i knew about was the lead in wine (though i thought it came from their drinking goblets) which led to dementia.. crazed. lol!
i love history, too.. fun to hear more about your family. i feel an affinity being a native of colorado..
YEP…thanks much
I like the gravatar, also
Rocky Horror…
Ode to Rijk
Sometimes I climb upon my bijk
And ride along the river dijk
On other days I take a hijk
The great outdoors is what I lijk!
Not bad, not bad at all! Well, Evan, this is not exactly the Saga of Erik the Red, so to speak, but this mini-ode to Rijk is definitely a picaresque little one… I am myself thinking about sculpting a mini van loodglazuur voorzien totem of Rijk (with his permission of course) and selling it on the web (perhaps on Amazon) for $1.99 + taxes’n shipping fees.
Thanks, Owen I like it
What about the $1.99 + taxes’n shipping fees mini van loodglazuur voorzien totem idea? Do you like it too?
