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 everyone 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!
