My rabbi mentioned in tonight's Yom Kippur service that he heard of sign in a pizza shop in Florida that says the following:

"Great minds discuss ideas; Average minds discuss events; Small minds discuss people."

(Further surfing credits this saying to either Unknown, Eleanor Roosevelt or Admiral Rickover).

I think I know where the staff of the E! channel fits in. That's not to say that I don't enjoy Howard Stern. I just have to learn not to. Actually, Howard does discuss events on his show, so I guess that makes him a small-to-average mind.

Here's a talmudic style follow-up....Does talking about any upcoming Jen-Ben wedding plans count as talking about events or people?

It's definitely getting late..I better get to sleep.
