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!

This is good!
How about this one:
There were three ministers of different faiths who grew up together and were very good friends, who lived in a very small town. One minister was a Lutheran, the other a Baptist, the other an Apostolic. They were camping and decided to "open up" about things concerning themselves and a weakness that they had. The Lutheran said that he had a problem with drinking an excessive amount of the sacrement wine. The other two ministers pondered on that for a moment, then the Baptist stated that he had a problem with taking extra money from the church account. The Apostolic preacher just set there, for what seemed to be twenty or so minutes, swaying back and forth thinking intently on what he should share with the others. Finally, the baptist preacher spoke up and said, "well, we've been waiting, what confession do you have?"To which, the Apostolic preacher said " Well, I have this little problem with gossip, and I can't wait to get back home and share this interesting news"
