Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Sep 24, 2019 (message contributor)
A pastor, known for his lengthy sermons, noticed a man get up and leave during the middle of his message. The man returned just before the conclusion of the service. Afterwards the pastor asked the man where he had gone.

"But," said the pastor, "why didn't you do that before the service?"
"Because," the gentleman said, "I didn't need one then."
