Once there was a little boy who lived in the country.
They had to use an out-house, and the little boy hated it because it was hot in the summer, cold in the winter and stank all the time. The out-house was sitting on the bank of a creek and the boy determined that one day he would push that out-house into the creek. One day after a spring rain, the creek was swollen so the little boy decided today was the day. So he put his shoulder to the side of the out-house and started pushing. Finally, the outhouse toppled into the creek and floated away.
That night his dad told him they were going to the woodshed after supper. Knowing that meant a spanking, the little boy asked why.
The dad replied, "Someone pushed the outhouse into the creek today. It was you, wasn't it, son," ?
The boy answered yes. Then he thought a moment and said, "Dad, I read in school today that George Washington chopped down a cherry tree and didn't get into trouble because he told the truth."
The dad replied, "Well, son, George Washington's father wasn't in that cherry tree."
