Drug Dealers & Pastors…
I got to thinking about how in the world could I relate to a drug dealer. (Don’t ask why)
At first blush – you’d think these two…er, professions would be worlds apart. I’m not sure about that anymore…consider…
Both often find themselves lieing to impress their clients…
Both are selling something that could kill you…
Eventually you are going to be shot at by someone that one time you called friend…
You’re only as good as your last ‘product’…
It’s addicting…
Hours are terrible…
Both are illegal – depending on your location…
What started out as wanting to provide a service often ends up being a search for more power and significance…
the 
sides
the randomness of a distracted existential tour guide.

They are both fishing for some of the same people, just using different bait. Every Tuesday night I see them both at work under the bridge.
