Pastors, dumb bitches, and batches of unrelated topics.

Mediocre pastors outnumber exceptional pastors.  That is the nature of the bell curve.

This is obviously not a scientific conclusion but rather a conjecture.  Plus mediocre and exceptional are subjective traits anyway.  Heck, even my sample of pastors are limited since I only know few pastors.  But from my experience of teachers and people of similar stature, I would presume, without any evidence, that population of pastors would resemble something close to a standard deviation.

*as I'm writing this, a somewhat cute girl, along with two of her company, sat in front of me.  She blurted out, "have you guys ever tried Carl's Jr.?"  and began to compare popeyes to Carl's.  I'm slightly annoyed for no apparent reason, though I shouldn't be.  anyways...

The nature of bell curve is a depressing one...  Or is it?  May be I am being overly pessimistic, for mediocre people far outnumber the incompetent as well.  Plus, not everything in the world has a standard distribution - wealth for one, is skewed.

No, no, it is depressing.  The reason is, I read somewhere that 70~80% of drivers believe they are better drivers than average drivers, while 80~90% of people believe they are better workers than their co-workers.  No one wants to...

Now, there are four girls sitting on another table.  One of the girl is talking about how she wants to go on a road trip for her birthday, and she started to bounce up and down on her chair like a dumb ditz while screaming.  I know I shouldn't look at people with contempt, but sometimes I just can't help it.

Let it be known - screaming while jumping up and down on a chair at a cafe in no way indicates your intelligence - but regardless, I hate dumb bitches.

I lost my train of thought.  May be I should talk about dumb bitches.  Don't get me wrong, I hate dumb guys too, but I really hate dumb bitches right now. They're probably not really dumb, but it's just so much more convenient to label them in such a way.

Anyways, I was supposed to be talking about pastors.  I think pasto...  I really don't understand how four people could talk simultaneously, especially at such a loud volume.  God I'm annoyed.  What was I writing about?  Oh yeah, what I wanted to say in the beginning was that we will all run into bunch of mediocre pastors, so don't be let down when you do.  If you meet great ones, which is not likely, cherish them.  Oh, and since most of my audience is quite young, here's another one of my unproven theories - I think pastors are like music.  You like them so much better when you're young.


Let me finish with quote from a man whom I look highly upon - Antoine de Saint-Exupery

A chief is a man who assumes responsibility. He says "I was beaten," he does not say "My men were beaten".
