How to stop a
Church Gossip
Mildred, the church gossip, and
self-appointed monitor of the church's morals, kept
sticking her nose into other people's business.
Several members did not approve of her extra
curricular activities, but feared her enough to
maintain their silence.
She made a
mistake, however, when she accused Frank, a new
member, of being an alcoholic after she saw his old
pickup parked in front of the town's only bar one
afternoon.
She emphatically told Frank (and several others) that
every one seeing it there WOULD KNOW WHAT HE WAS
DOING !
Frank, a
man of few words, stared at her for a moment and just
turned and walked away. He didn't explain, defend, or
deny. He said nothing..
Later that evening, Frank quietly parked his pickup
in front of Mildred's house ... walked home .....and
left it there all night.
(You gotta love Frank!)
