From the desk of Carl Mumpower to Oprah.com

Asheville City Councilman Carl Mumpower, who works as a psychologist here in Asheville, is quoted on Oprah.com today in an online article about energy boosters and busters. 

Mumpower weighs in under “busters”:

Boredom.“We know about burnout, from doing too much, but there’s also ‘boredout,’ caused by doing too little,” says Carl Mumpower, PhD, a clinical psychologist in Asheville, North Carolina. The longer you’re bored, the less energy you have and the more likely that this temporary feeling can become permanent, he says.

I never thought I’d be writing the names “Mumpower” and “Oprah” in the same sentence, but here you go.
