Country Boy
From Joke of the Day
Once there was a little boy that lived in the country.
They had to use an outhouse, and the little boy hated it
because it was hot in the summer and cold in the winter
and stank all the time. The outhouse was sitting on the
bank of a creek and the boy determined that one day he
would push that outhouse into the creek.
One day after a spring rain, the creek was swollen so the
little boy decided today was the day to push the outhouse
into the creek. So he got a large stick 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 the cherry tree."
