"Be an Expert on Anything"

Stephen Colbert has written an amusing article for the "How to" feature in Wired magazine: How to "Be an Expert on Anything."

I particularly enjoyed this part:

SPEAK FROM THE BALLS, NOT FROM THE DIAPHRAGM. In the expert game, you’ve got to have sack. That means speaking with confidence. In America, you’ve got to steer clear of nuance and ambivalence – and don’t even contemplate doubt.

Yeah, that's pretty much how it works.
