I don't mean to eavesdrop. Okay, sometimes I do. Like, I'll be cleaning a client's house and the phone will ring. I'll take out my headphones to listen to the message - because on more than one occasion it's been for ME! (That's the only reason I listen to answering machines now.) But in public settings and such, I try NOT to eavesdrop anymore. It gets me into trouble.
But sometimes overhearing something can be quite comical.
Like the one where the little boy walked up to the bishop and gave him some money & said, "Here Bishop, this is for you." And the bishop responds, "You mean, it's for the Lord." And the boy replies, "No, I mean it's for you. My dad says you're the poorest bishop." (This is in NO WAY whatsoever aimed at my current bishop - he rocks! It really was overheard somewhere.)
So, if you're wanting a few funny "overheard in the ward" type things, head over here. Some of them are outright guffaw funny. My sister has even contributed a few times to them.

Ever eavesdropped?

This isn't an eavesdropping story, but you might enjoy it anyway. My little brother was 5 or so at the time, and loved bearing his testimony. He'd always think things through in advance, so they weren't the generic young child testimonies.
One memorable day, he told the ward, "I know that Heavenly Father loves everyone, even the Catholics." The ward started laughing so he gave them an indignant glare and said, "Well, He does!"
Those are so great! I am putting the link on my blog. Thanks for sharing.:)
