He proved that he had a sixth sense about making money and a rare ability to manage traders. His power began to grow. As he rose, he lost weight (about fifty pounds), quit smoking, and shaved his beard … Although he wasn’t physically prepossessing, tough-talking trader types were drawn to him. One partner described it as, “a little bit of the sun god phenomenon.” [Daily Intel]

    So, is he doing God’s work, or is he the Sun God? Confused!

    My pop-analysis is Napoleon Complax and I’m sticking to it. As per Wiki:

    “In evolutionary theory
    The term “Napoleon complex” has been used in scientific research on the phenomenon of smaller organisms acting aggressively towards larger organisms. ”

    In 3500 BCE, Lloydaquatelhotep, God of the Sun, He of the 6 Senses, He who Runs in the Front of His People, He who fathers many and cannot Perish ordered that a pyramid be built in his honor. Plans were drawn up and a scribe chisler was sought to inscribe the walls of the pyramid. All over the land, agents of Lloydaquatelhotep fanned out to retrieve the best scribe in the land who could “speed-chisel” the god’s word into stone.

    And so it was that a female, “Bessuncommon”, was found and sent before the court of Lloydaquatelhotep on dusty red afternoon. She was given a stone tablet, a hammer and a chisel. A high priest, Cohnkapet, said, “I hear you are a fast scribe…”‘ Instantaneously, Bessuncommon began to hammet the stone with the chisel producing chips o stone and dust in great quantities as small replicas of ferns, cats, owls, alligators reed and various images of men in 2 dimensions with stars and reed mats were hammered into the stone that translated into, “I hear you area fast scribe….”

    A great gasp arose in the court as onlookers were amazed at the speed of Bessuncommon’s ability to carve words into stone using the hieroglphys of the day.

    Lloydaquatelhotep, God of the Sun, He of the 6 Senses, He who Runs in the Front of His People, He who fathers many and cannot Perish was duly amazed himself. He spoke to Bessuncommon and said, “When I drop my handherchief, write everything I say into a new stone tablet.”

    A news stone was provided and at the drop of his hankerchief he began, “Lo the lands quake from my powers as I rule all that I see and control all that is before me for I have powers above mortals and I am blessed with the Golden Scrotum and….”

    Suddenly, Bessuncommon, who had been chiseling up a storm as the Sun God spoke, producing great rains of stone tablet chips as she hammed in animal headed humans, boats, flying arrows, storks, hippos, large unblinking eyes and other hieroglyphs…came to a sudden stop. The court looked at her incredulously as she asked, “Is ‘scrotum” spelled with one ball or two….?”
