TALKING IN CODE
A woman told about the time she sat next to Lady Churchill at a London dinner party. Across the table was Sir Winston, who kept making his hand “walk” up and down along the tabletop — two fingers bent at the knuckles. The fingers appeared to be walking toward Lady Churchill. Finally, the observer, overcome with curiosity, asked, “What is Sir Winston doing with those two knuckles on the table?” Churchill’s wife replied, “Oh, that! We had a mild quarrel before we left home, and he’s indicating it’s his fault and he’s on his knees in apology.”
