On the Lighter Side

The Outhouse

Once there was a little boy who lived in the country. For bathroom facilities, they had to use an outhouse. The little boy hated it because it was hot in the summer and cold in the winter, and it 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 water.

One day after a spring rain, the creek was swollen so the little boy decided that today was the day to push the outhouse into the creek. So he got a large stick and pushed. Finally, the outhouse toppled into the creek and floated away.

That evening his dad sternly told him to sit down. Knowing he was in trouble, 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 nodded meekly. The father said, "Because of your actions, you will have to face the consequences, which will be severe."

Then he thought a moment and said, "Dad, I learned in school that George Washington chopped down a cherry tree and didn't get into trouble because he told the truth." The dad replied, "Well, son, I'm glad you told the truth, but George Washington's father wasn't in that cherry tree!"
