Guru finally has scientific proof of what he has known for a long time. That blueness = intelligence.
Scientists in America have found that people with blue eyes appear to be better strategic thinkers.
In tests, blue-eyed boys and girls proved to be more successful in activities that required them to plan and structure their time, such as golf, cross-country running - and studying for exams.
Imagine how clever you would be if your whole body was blue... Oh look - Guru's whole body is blue! Well, you just can't argue with science.

I'm sorry, this is just another silly study, like the one which said people with ring fingers longer than their index fingers are more skilled at math and number work. My fingers comply, but I am abysmal with numbers.
How can you give this item space on your website?

Robin, you plainly haven't been reading Guru's blog for long. Silly studies like this are what forms the basis for most of Guru's commentary on the world of work and human resources. For a diet of more serious HR discussions, Guru would suggest many of the other blogs on his blogroll.
By the way - loved you in Good Morning Vietnam. Not so keen on Flubber, though.

Look at the standard of living in countries where most of the population is blue eyed- Switzerland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Iceland. And compare it with the standard of living in counries where most of the population is brown eyed- Zambia, Ethiopia, India, etc.
Why is it that these countries have no formal education? Why is it that the blue eyed countries have to go over to these countries to feed these people?
