Gifty Guts

Posted: Thursday, February 2nd, 2012

My home for the past five days was perched high above the Hudson River on Pier 92 while I showed the guts at the New York International Gift Fair in New York City. As I drove into the city, I felt butterflies in my stomach, my heart skipped a beat and felt a lump in my throat, excitement that feels like being in love, but really it’s just being in New York. Had a great time reconnecting with old friends, making new ones, talking about guts, eating delicious things and drinking more than I should have (my poor liver!). I loved meeting so many interesting people from all over the world, from Tasmania to Iceland to South Africa to Japan. Had a blast, hope you all did the same!

Nerd Power!

My geeky heart swells with pride — an interview in Games Magazine! I know most people will flip right past it since it’s not a puzzle or a game review, but I’m still honored to be included in a mag read by such smart people. If only my brain was smart enough to do the puzzles…

Love is in the Air

Posted: Thursday, January 26th, 2012

Seeing as love is a many-gendered thing, we got together some testicles and ovaries, and ovaries and ovaries, and testicles and testicles and set them up with a champagne and chocolate romantic (if totally unhealthy) feast.

Blow It Off

Body Breakdown

Posted: Wednesday, January 18th, 2012

Here’s a quick cheat sheet to remember what all those guts and glands are doing all day inside your body, as told by our lapel pins. Your marvelous reproductive friends (with benefits?) are busy squirting away, and technically the sex organs and glands also require help from the brain, hypothalamus, pituitary, adrenals and yes, even sweat and saliva to some extent (but I digress!) Onward to Team Digestion, those little guys that make eating such a pleasure! Thanks everyone! What would we do without the admirable and ceaseless devotion of our circulatory system? The heart pumps blood, hormones, air anywhere it’s needed, while the respiratory champs the lungs get air in and out with no breaks whatsoever. What a champ! Onward to the good ol’ brain, in charge of the entire nervous system, the boss of the entire body. Who’s there to take out the trash? Why, the excretory system, of course, with major players the kidneys, intestine and bladder taking the junk out of your trunk. The skin keeps all the organs bundled neatly inside, and sebaceous glands keep our skin soft while sweat glands keep us cool. Flu? Colds? Not with this tough team around — your immune system is staffed by the wonderful lymphatic nodes, spleen and thymus gland, which keep you in good health (unless they don’t, some bugs are craftier than others, I suppose). Finishing up, we have the glands that make us hormonal, the Endocrine Party comprising adrenals, pancreas, parathyroid and thyroid! And there, in a nutshell, is the human body.

Valentine Poll

Posted: Tuesday, January 17th, 2012

Holidays bring up all sorts of emotions and Valentine’s Day is certainly no exception. Even if you’re all for love, nothing rankles more than the sickly-sweet bears, dewy fake roses and cheap chocolate than this over-commercialized holiday. And let’s not even get started about being single on the day of love. Oh wait, am I being overly cynical? Maybe a little. So tell us the truth, do you delight in Valentine’s Day, or do you despise it?
