Anyone who knows Blo knows a few immutable facts. Namely, Blo is not tangible. You can feel Blo's essence, but you can't see him. Furthermore, if you are lucky enough to encounter an apparition of Blo, then you know his tendency toward verbiosity. To put it in layman's terms, Blo knows how to talk. He's, well, long-winded; he's sort of a chatty fellow.
After much thought, I decided to invent a new word: bloviate. To bloviate means to speak or write verbosely and windily. It's a perfect word to describe someone who's acting like Blo!
I think I'll call the Webster guys to see if they'll include the definition in their dictionary. I'll be right back ...
... I'm back. My homeboy Noah Webster hooked me up right way. Check it out.

You rock Bird! I knew you had mad pull with the word-boyz.
Sometimes I can still hear Blo's voice . . . Blo-in' on the wind . . .
