boring

I've written before on topics that quite possibly show a certain disdain for upper-middle/lower-upper class suburbia. I recognize the inherent irony in such activities given my background and likely personal and professional destiny. There's nothing wrong with the education/hard-work attitude and becoming part of the working professional class. It's the rather unfulfilling looking consumerism that usually follows. And then there's the matter of the sustainability of the whole situation.

On an unrelated note, what is it about people with passion that makes it easier to listen to them? Does it speak to a missing passion in the lives of those doing the listening or is it simply the intrigue of a charismatic message regardless of what it is.
