Really, someday I want to explain the title of this blog. For now, I found the conclusion of a David Brooks column in the NY Times, as he reflects upon the qualities of Barak Obama, speaking a word in praise of dullness.
We can each guess how the story ends. But over the past two years, Obama has clearly worn well with voters. Far from a celebrity fad, he is self-contained, self-controlled and maybe even a little dull.

While we’re praising dullness, let’s all go out and vote for dullness–early voting starts today, so go out and vote it, while you were just inspired by it! 🙂

This was a post in praise of dullness, not in praise of all of those who manifest that trait! I think one should perhaps factor in a man’s and a party’s stated policies, don’t you think? 🙂

Rebekah, I’m passing over the dullness this year for a bit more passion. *wink*
