Investigating
Two dogs were walking down the street. The one dog says to the other, “Wait here a minute, I’ll be right back.” He walks across the street and sniffs this fire hydrant for about a minute, then walks back across the street.
The other dog says, “What was that about?”
The dog first dog says, “Oh, I was just checking my messages.”
None of your business
The church gossip, and self-appointed arbiter of the church’s morals, kept sticking her nose into other people’s business. Several church members were unappreciative of her activities, but feared her enough to maintain their silence.
She made a mistake, however, when she accused George, a new member, of being drunk after she saw his pickup truck parked in front of the town’s only bar one afternoon.
She commented to George on a Sunday morning, in the company of many, 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 walked away. He didn’t explain, defend, or deny; he said nothing.
Later that evening, George quietly parked his pickup in front of her house and left it there all night.
Environmental help
Trying to do my share to help the environment, I set up a trash basket at my church and posted above it this suggestion: “Empty water bottles here.”
I should have been a little more specific, because when I went to check it later, I didn’t find any bottles in it. But it was full of water.
