Beverly, 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 activities, but feared her
enough to maintain their silence.
She made a mistake, however, when she accused George, a
new church 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
then 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 Beverly's house...Walked home..And left it there all night.
You Gotta love George.
