How To Stop Church Gossip.


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 after noon. 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!)

Great bedtime story. Now I will have a nightcap of grey goose vodka and orange juice, sliced spiral ham, and a touch of broccoli and a supple vinegret.

Carve a pentagram into your forehead, and when you hear any gossip just slide right into the middle of it and say in a satanic voice: "ohhh, the master and I Loooove Gossip... don't we master?"

Then rub your hands together (a la mr. burns) and lick you lips... you won't hear any more gossip.

You always take 2 Baptists with you when you go fishing. The reason is if you only take one with you he will drink all your beer. If you take 2 with you neither will touch your beer.

Re: How To Stop Church Gossip.


A drunk stumbles along a baptismal service on Sunday afternoon down by the river. He proceeds to walk down into the water and stand next to the Preacher.

The minister turns and notices the old drunk and says, 'Mister, Are you ready to find Jesus?' The drunk looks back and says, 'Yes,Preacher. I sure am.'

The minister then dunks the fellow under the water and pulls him right back up. 'Have you found Jesus?' the preacher asked.

'No, I didn't!' said the drunk.

The preacher then dunks him under for quite a bit longer, brings him up and says, 'Now, brother, have you found Jesus?'

'No, I did not Reverend.'

The preacher in disgust holds the man under for at least 30 seconds this time brings him out of the water and says in a harsh tone, 'My God, have you found Jesus yet?'

The old drunk wipes his eyes and says to the preacher...'Are you sure this is where he fell in?'

Re: How To Stop Church Gossip.


A minister, a priest and a rabbi were enjoying the serenity of a country dipping pond. Since it was fairly secluded, they took off all their clothes and jumped in the water. Feeling refreshed, the trio decided to pick a few berries while enjoying their "freedom." As they were crossing an open area, a group of very old ladies from town approached them. Unable to get to their clothes in time, the minister and the priest covered their privates and the rabbi covered his face while they ran for cover. After the ladies left and the men got their clothes back on, the minister and the priest asked the rabbi why he covered his face rather than his privates. The rabbi replied "I don't know about you, but in MY congregation, it's my FACE that they would recognize."
