Subject: the church gossip

Myrtle, the church gossip, and self-appointed monitor of the
church's morals, kept sticking her nose in to other people's
business.
Several members did not approve of her extracurricular
activities, but feared her enough to maintain their silence.
She made a mistake, however, when she accused George,
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 George and several others that everyone
seeing it there would know what he was doing.
George, 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, George quietly parked his pickup in front of
Myrtle's house.. walked home.... and left it there all night.
You gotta love George.
