Do you know somebody like that around here who constantly tells everybody how he knows everything there is to know, and demonstrates it, over and over, ad nauseam, whether anybody wants to hear it or not, and generally without warning?
Well, if you do or don't, let me introduce you to Professor McSmarty BS, who probably teaches somewhere at MIT or some other place where really smart people go, and who is also, as it happens, some kind of glorified pop-media darling, who advises presidents (both living and dead), and who can explain everything to everyone from small children to big monkeys. Archaeology, economics, particle physics, cryptozoology; NOTHING escapes his grasp! Yeah! That guy!
Him. The smoothest natural storyteller since Demosthenes and Johnny Carson rolled into one, able to charm the birds off the trees with his eloquent prose, debonair wit and swinging panache. Oh yeah! He's got it all!
Of course, as we all know, he also has this amazing knack for churning out these fabulously written pieces of fiction at the drop of a hat, because, according to him, he is also a "best selling author" across many different genres and fields.
Just ask him!
He would be only too glad to tell you, and he does it so well, so effortlessly, that before you realize it, you find yourself nodding along in agreement, saying "Yes, yes!" and buying yet another copy of whatever book he is currently hawking.
This despite the fact that when you finally sit down and try to READ what the heck he wrote, you discover that almost none of what he said makes any sense at all. In fact, mostly it is just BS, just as his degree. But boy, oh, boy, can HE spin a yarn! Can he ever!
