NASA Aims for... Mercury? Gnooze 1-15-08

[solvssod]

You remind me of my younger self , Iam highly depressed most of the time now . well, I loved your little show .just be careful. cause there may not be aliens on mercury ,but our moon is crawling with them.

[claytonvon]

what are the vocals saying on the theme song for the Gnooze? "sounds like- Hey wahts up! What sooo!!!

[gnooze]

I think it's "It's true, we're through" -- though I like to pretend that it's "It's true. It's Gnooze."

Though I like yours, too :)

[mikemoondawg]

Look out America! Marta you are breath of fresh air to our depressing political news. Your smart, funny and beautiful. I'm looking forwards to watching you for a long time to come. Thanks for making me laugh very hard!

Mike

[videoboxx1]

Toward the end of the video I like the use of her sweet voice and movement of her eyes.

[HabsRule92Remy92]

Sheeeit... I can say "Hey" forever... I just choose not to... How about that?

[ZachsMind]

Hey.

[vitaminrich2]

Marta's been working out... check out dem guns...

[owenbigpinekey]

Not that i could get to hollywood this weekend ,but i never heard anything about a gathering.

[firerookie]

"Now ask your doctor about that..."! Great stuff. You are really on to something here. Keep with it.

[hugozoom]

you are getting funnier and charminger, even though charminger isn't a word. But you are.

[justplayman]

hey

[MentalMuse]

lol.. I don't even have my sound on a you are entertaining.

[iniksbane]

Rock on! I'm actually glad it didn't actually crash into Mercury. That would make me sad.

[Ciriaco323]

Marta, you make me proud to be from upstate new york!

[007Mind]

Hey ;D

[MBRHIndustries]

This is a bad study. :(

[alansham1]

I like the idea of a special report on the youtube gathering this week end!

[DamienSteel]

Loved your NASA report, priceless.

[dontheman17]

That was great.

I do enjoy your videos.

Hey did you know the G really is silent.

Oh yeah...

Hey...

[Dog480]

Well, I'm not going to be at the LA meet so I'll just say "Hey" now.  Have a good time :)

[KenwoodKlown]

I disagree with Ick69 and I don't think poking fun at our achievements in space is doing this country a bit of good. Actually no; I just wanted to type, "Ick69" What's that about dude?

[Ick69]

You know I have a vested interest in astronomy and I like Mercury.  I'm not mad you belittled the achievement though, we can still be friends. I still think your way better than that big budget crap that they put on TV. Way better.

[nerdfighter4]

Hey what about a special gnooze report on the hollywood gathering?! That would be awesome!

[gitarzero2]

If I did live there, and I did see you I would be more like "HOLY ****! Your marta costello! I'm a subscribe, my name is gitarzero2, I keep talking about how you might for get the people that you knew in the beggining once you get to the top. How's it going?" Then you would probely say "Wow, I didn't think you would look so... nerdy." Then I would be like "thanks. Do you know where I might be able to find smpfilms, or charles trippy?"

[roadfatigue]

One pill makes you larger (Viagra)

And one pill makes you small (Flomax)

And the ones that mother gives you

Don't do anything at all....LOL!

Your Gnoozaholic stopping by to say hi.

Mercury?

[KlaxonCow]

No, Mercury doesn't work either.

It just drives you completely stark looney insane, so that all your logic and proportion will just fall sloppy dead.

Just ask the "mad hatter" about that one. I think he'll know. ;D

[MsOpheliaPayne]

another awesome show Marta

[proffmongo]

Is Mercury still a planet???

We could say straw.

[poculdis]

OK, I found Gnooze last week (January 8). Now I've watched all 94 vids and 4 vlogs and am up to speed. Gnooze is killer and I am hooked! Thank you for doing this and keep on truckin'! (There's an old Robert Crumb-ism). How's the job hunting?

[gnooze]

WOW! That's amazing! I'm surprised all that gnooze didn't melt your brain! Thanks for all your kind words. We will indeed keep on truckin'! The job hunting is awful. I mean, it's going fine, but I hate having to put myself out there like that. "Dear Ma'am or Sir: Please judge me on my piece of paper and then don't call."  Ugh. But I'm trying to embrace the adventure. :)

[ftbotsb]

So? Nu? Where's you're demo tape for SNL?

[ftbotsb]

hey

hey hey

hey

[gnooze]

Hey hey hey!

[ftbotsb]

by the way, I live on a farm with various types of hay: Alfalfa, Straw, Green, Timothy, Orchard, etc.  We could talk all day about Hay!

I also have friends at NASA! They live in windoless rooms hunched over their consoles.

You've got 'em pegged! (though they don't hyperventilate)

Sincerely,

From The Basement Of The Science Building

[wlmtopsportsman]

LOL at the jenga comment!! LOL

[gnooze]

I am so random sometimes! :)

[wlmtopsportsman]

And that is one of the many reasons I enjoy the gnooze so much! :-)

Tom

[IONIKIOS]

Good one, we old men love it also!!!

[gnooze]

Hey thanks! Glad you like it!

[SeizureChords]

A bad study haha thats what I have been doing on Youtube since I got here. Hey.

[gnooze]

Hey!

[PiFan7]

. . . and the shrug & raspberry killed, too!

I don't think I've complimented your new title sequence: I love it, and it's very much in keeping with 200G!

[gnooze]

Thanks Michael! Music kindly provided by Pistol Youth.

[getonit123]

HA!!

[gnooze]

:D :D :D

[sheepwshotguns]

hey =D

[gnooze]

Hey!

[sheepwshotguns]

hey hey hey

[filmidioten]

Heeey

[gnooze]

Heeey

[anmoose]

Your take on NASA was just too much. I almost fell out of my chair with you. :-P

No way can I make it to LA, so you'll just HAVE to come to SouthTube this fall. Maybe we can set a record for saying "Hey." I'll start practicing...

Moosie

[gnooze]

Moosie, tell me more about South Tube!

[anmoose]

Phew! Where do I start? I have some vids on my own channel, and a search for SouthTube brings up tons more. There's also info on the SouthTubeGathering channel. SouthTube 1 was held in late September in Marietta, GA, and was one of the best organized and best attended gatherings ever! SouthTube 2 is already in planning and set for the first week in October. It's tentatively going to be a week-long event this time.

[Monkey1249]

I like you're hair in this one. Great video. Oh, and I asked HappySlip, Michael Buckley, and SxePhil if they could give you a shout-out. I hope they do!

[gnooze]

Hey thanks! That's too nice of you!  :)

[geargemartin]

...hey!

[gnooze]

Hey!

[ujdo]

Hey, I'm going. It may be small. I think people are saving their pennys for SF.

[gnooze]

Cool! See you there! I think we might try to hit the SF one too.

[YouWish8]

Woot as always

[gnooze]

*faux bitchy* Um, actually, w00t is spelled with zeros.

Heehehe.

[YouWish8]

haha i know but i was in a rush, so i did it ...shorthand =D

[chapmando2007]

Did NASA buy some insurance when they went by Mercury LOL. Drugs with no benefits LOL. Just waiting for the soda tax to come.

[gnooze]

Hahaha. Mercury Insurance. I do like some of those commercials. That guy is funny.

[LouRyder]

You have the best news around.

[gnooze]

Thanks Lou!

[lisasimpson]

CRAP! You will be in Hollywood?

Go Beccah for living in Michigan.

[gnooze]

Come to Hollywood! Find a last minute ticket! :) It's too cold in Michigan anyways. Although I wish I were there tonight to cover the primary.

[icely2000]

Why not ask your doctor about that.

^ Funny

[gnooze]

Thanks! :)

[TheBabyEaters]

Hey Marta. We might be at the gathering as well, so.........hey.

[gnooze]

Hey, BabyEaters, you have to go! I don't want to be the only one there.

[WileyCoyote69]

Hey, I know I learned something.

[Taiak]

Hey,..hey..hey..hey..

Lawl,... oh teh funnies in this episode. Me likeeeee. I guess you drank a lot of coffe today (hence the reference?),.. anyway I love it when you're all out there.

Lalalalalalalalalala...lawl,..­. so funny, so true.

P.S. looking good in black : )

P.P.S since I was too late to comment on the last episode I'll add a random "BOOBS..WOO WOO ,... TEEE SHUUURD!!"

Yes, yes testosterone can be a curse : p

[gnooze]

Hey...

I was consuming caffeine at the time of the taping. I guess I'm just that transparent. :)

[Taiak]

Hah,... I knew it! :D

[justwatchin07]

hehe, jenga.

haha...i love the pill department bit.

i'll be at the hollywood youtube gathering in spirit. :) hopefully it goes better than the golden globes did this year.

[gnooze]

I'll say "hey" to you in spirit at the gathering! :)

[justwatchin07]

that would be awesome :)

[PiratePuppetMelba]

I'm glad you didn't talk about Obama or Clinton. I'm REALLY tired of hearing about them, honestly. You'd think they were the only two candidates running, and they both have a history of shady dealings and scandals. Why aren't they looking at the other candidates? It's really puzzling.

[gnooze]

Who knows?

Did you catch the vlog on gnooze dot com?

[KlaxonCow]

Marta, I've just watched your vlog on gnooze dot com and, girl, seriously, get that vlog over here on YouTube where people can see it! Somehow.

That vlog is in itself newsworthy.

What people perhaps need to know more than any actual news story itself is just how much bullshit is being peddled at them by the corporates.

[KlaxonCow]

How their "news" is controlled by their personal vanity and ego - not by its actual significance or relevance.

How they can and do twist and manipulate the news until it's no longer remotely truthful.

How the networks will, indeed, force journalists to harass the bereaved or the mentally ill (Britney) or whoever IN THEIR NAME - even if this drives these people to utter destruction, over a story that wasn't ever remotely newsworthy.

[KlaxonCow]

People NEED to know this. They need to be made aware of what utter bullshit and contempt is being perpetrated on them and perpetrated in their name.

I love your shows, Marta, and, in some senses, that's perhaps the most important "gnooze" you've ever delivered.

And don't remotely apologise for being at 10 over it - you should really have gone all the way to 11 over this!

Oh, yeah, I'm definitely as mad as hell and I don't think that any of us should take it anymore!

[Blargaldalien]

Hello,Marta,

Re: Pakistan, lalalalalalaal(going to my happy place)

Re: Zetia, lalalalalalala (back to the happy place)

Re: Mercury, Been there,probed the Mercurians.

I will do an over flight of the AsOne get together.Expect a flight video afterwards.

[gnooze]

I tried to comment on your video yesterday but it got swallowed by YouTube.

Oh well.

You did receive my telepathic communication, right?

[Blargaldalien]

Hello,Marta.

Yes I did receive the telepathic communique.

You misspelled a few thoughts.

Or am I really supposed to do THAT with a ...

[KlaxonCow]

Mercurians?

I always wondered if the proper adjective was Mercurian or Mercurite or Mercurese.

Thanks for clearing that one up, my non-Terran ally!

[DStyle86]

YouTube presents:

It's Marta Costello with a slightly more agnoozing take on current world events!

I'm looking forward to the day you'll be featured on the frontpage :)

[gnooze]

That would be awesome! Thank you!

[1ozcan]

ciao marta!

go on :D

[gnooze]

ciao to you!

[Blargaldalien]

Chow? sounds like a cannibal to me...

[MathiasT]

Marta, Your vlog was way better than the Gnooze today. Give me some more of that!

[DStyle86]

second that!!

[gnooze]

You know what? I think I will. ;)

[mysticfm]

Hey. :)

If more average Americans understood that Mercury is not only intensely hot, but also bitterly cold (depending upon your location on the planet) ... well, unfortunately most of us probably still wouldn't care. If Britney's kids were moved there or American Idol held a round of auditions there, THEN people might start getting excited about Mercury. *sigh*

[gnooze]

Hey yourself.

*sigh* Indeed. I think you know how feel about this whole bit. :)

[dsfast]

I read the stories this morning then tune in to you and you make me laugh. Keep it up!

[gnooze]

Will do! Glad you like!

[mike8494]

Cool i saw it on the the gnooze but it was good.... Marta five ***** to you.. Mike :-)

[gnooze]

Hey Mike! :) Thanks for stopping by both places!

[KlaxonCow]

Five what to Marta?

Please, children could be watching! ;D

[Blargaldalien]

Asterisks. * <see

[goobersayshey]

Goober says Hey -

Actually you can say Hey quite a bit.

Or just with the one lifted eyebrow, like "...Hey..."

Or when someone eats your Banana Jello - like : HEY!

Or when you step in doggie poo - like Heeeeeyyyy! (now That's a verb that requires a shaky motion!).

Wish the Youtube deal were in Minnesota - but of course all we get is a 30 below weekend. Have fun!

[Blargaldalien]

I am surprised they don't substitute "dude" for "hey"...

[goobersayshey]

Goobersaysdude just didn't have the same ring to it.... Maybe when I get my spaceship! Thanks for the note.

[gnooze]

Hey!

Stay warm up there!

[megamandapop]

wow this is my first time hearing about this Hollywood meetup! I guess that's what you were talking about when you mentioned schmoozing in yer previous vlog.

[gnooze]

Yeah that and the broader game of "getting the word out." It's tough for me because there's a set of schmoozing rules that people are just supposed to know and I don't have a knack for it.

[megamandapop]

It's good that schmoozing doesn't come natural to you, I would think...

[qiranger]

I was wondering where my gnooze was!

[gnooze]

Since we have to wait for YouTube to approve now, it slows things down.

[KlaxonCow]

YouTube are making people get their videos "approved" first?

Renetto, what have you done?!?

[BOBIzizou87]

I bet you have NASA`s net page set up as your homepage. =)

Have fun at the gathering.

[gnooze]

Do they have any YouTube gatherings near you Boris?

[BOBIzizou87]

No I don't think so. Maybe the closest one in UK. Or some random country Italy or Germany. Therefore I should learn German/Italian. Maybe one day, I´ll come to USA. idk. It could happen. =)

[qinaden]

No Aliens on Mercury you say. Umm Blargal might have something to say about that.

[Blargaldalien]

see below..;D

[gnooze]

Well, I mean, it's an awfully small planet of extreme temperatures. Kind of like Bakersfield, CA.

[ujdo]

And on the upside, it's not as smelly as Bakersfield.

[rhymingwithoranges]

nice jenga referance.

very symbolic

as is the "la"ing

:O how convenient! i love spinich!!!:P

i rofled at "WOO MERCURY!!!" *falls over*

marta ftw!!!

jaz

;)

[gnooze]

Hey Jaz! Glad you laughed at the fall! I was hoping that would play. :)

[rhymingwithoranges]

slap stick comedy ftw!

;)

[airborne373]

Be careful at the YT gather some of those people have kooodies.

[Blargaldalien]

cooties,

[airborne373]

Yeah, they got them tooo!

[gnooze]

Oh no! Kooooooodies and cooties? I'm done for!

[ujdo]

It's ok! You can get a shot for that at the Hard Rock cafe.  Maybe 2 or 3. ;)

[scottmhoward]

Yay Gnooze!! ;)

[gnooze]

Scott! Your webpage drove me nutty! ;)

[scottmhoward]

lol ;) Yeah, I got bored with a simple "click here to enter". Now you gotta WORK for it. =D

[gnooze]

I tried! But failed. Maybe next time.  :)
