...I "produced" more professors for these universities than anyone else.

[AuntSpode8899]

Maybe he meant he had romances with a lot of uber-brainy birds and "produced" many little brainboxes who subsequently became professor for various universities. Ha Ha. He does not seem to be very street-smart, so he spoke without knowing it could sound a bit boastful. I don't think he is the boastful type at all. Shy more like.

@AuntSpode8899 street smarts is a myth. You do know he's not american; I guarantee you it's a cultural thing.

Um, I have solved the problem but promised not to tell anyone..hint: it's brown sugar.
