...impress girls. Testing untrained, naked people on their natural ability would be pointless, though I am considering pitching it to Fox. The only reason Michael Phelps objects to the full-body suits is that his sponsor, Speedo, doesn't make one. Speedo, apparently, is committed to making the gonad-gripping suits that are yet another reason we left Europe...
...Abravanel's Body Type Diet and Lifetime Nutrition Plan divides people into thyroids, adrenals, gonads or pituitaries, recommending different foods for each one. The big drawback of this diet is discovering that you are a gonad. Followers of the raw-foods diet eat only uncooked food; the Caveman Diet allows you to eat only what Stone Age people ate; and The Body Code, by Jay Cooper, divides dieters into warriors, nurturers, communicators and visionaries. Nurturers, in addition to eating lots of fruits and vegetables, no doubt do most of the cooking. More popular is Gwen Shamblin's The Weigh Down...
...University in Minnesota, was annoyed last fall when she saw an advertisement for the TV series Dynasty displaying three female characters under the headline BITCH, BITCH, BITCH. She wrote to Fallon McElligott, the award-winning Minneapolis ad agency responsible for the promotion, objecting to what she called its "male gonad" style.

His response was, well, intemperate: a photo of what appeared to be an African child kissing the rear end of a cow and a cheeky...
...that time of year again. My chance to make all you "baseball experts" out there look so very very foolish. There's really no need to go into detail. This is an incredibly difficult quiz, and while it is neither as long or as well thought out as the gonad-cracker that I served up last spring to you, I'm pretty confident you won't do any better this year. As a matter of fact, I think you'd have a better chance of finding a leather-bound copy of J.H. Parry's Trade and Dominion than...
...such cases of sterility, Swedish researchers headed by Uppsala's Dr. Carl Gemzell have devised injections of gonad-stimulating hormones extracted from pituitary glands obtained at autopsy. In many cases, ten to 15 days of injections over a month or two induced ovulation, and the women bore one or more normal babies. In Sweden there were two sets of quads. While the Swedish research was progressing, an Italian endocrinologist, Dr. Pietro Donini, began extracting gonad-stimulating hormones from the urine of women who had passed the menopause. It takes three gallons of urine to produce enough of the extract...
