Hey, it’s the American Way

How does she do it? Well, she sits on her rumpled bed or on the floor, dressed in sexy outfits, sometimes holding her little white dog, and tells you about words in her liquid sexy Russian accent. Plus she’s kind of funny, and seems like a real sweetheart. A couple little special effects on the videos, and it’s an instant winner. Plus she really puts out. 5 to 7 videos a week that is. Natasha Fatale, eat your heart out!

She is Marina Orlova and you’ve probably seen here already on TV. She’s done interviews on O’Reilly, on CBS, NBC. She’s won teh Sexy Geek of the Year award at least once already. She’s made the cover of the latest issue of Cool! English magazine. I didn’t know there even was such a thing, but I gather it’s popular in other countries. Her YouTube videos have been watched over 155 million times. Wow. She has her own channel there, and it’s #1. She has a biweekly radio show on Maxim Radio on Sirius satellite radio. And of course, the website: HotForWords.com. More than a million registered members.

Is she making money off of this? I hope so. And from more than just the ad revenue from her blog. Her website registration is free. She’s got a calendar for sale. Today’s word is “Gun" . (not that this is her first firearms related video)

I like the concept: intelligence is sexy. The woman has 2 degrees in philology, so she must be quite sexy intelligent herself. And as the English language approaches 1 million words, there has to be somebody out there to tell us what they mean and where they come from. Too bad the one place this concept doesn’t fly is America.  Here, brain power is way down the list. That’s a shame.

Now, I’m wondering how she can parlay this into some real money. Maybe she’ll take some acting lessons and become a new tech on CSI. I could see it. Heck, I’d be tempted to commit crimes just to here her describe them. Or maybe a gameshow host. Alex Trebek will have to retire sooner or later. If she keeps showing up on O’Reilly as part of his rotating eye candy squad, she’ll wind up working for Fox. That’s my bet. I’m actually amazed that they haven’t discovered already how mesmerizing women are if they have the right kind of foreign accent.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
