Stunner

A little boy living in the country hates his family outhouse - which sits on the edge of a creek - because it's hot in the summer, cold in the winter and always reeks.
One spring day, there's a huge rain shower and the creek swells. The boy decides this is his chance to get rid of the stink shack, so he grabs a sturdy stick and begins pushing it. Finally, he tips the outhouse into the creek and it floats away.
That night, the boy's dad tells him to prepare for a spanking.
"What did I do wrong" the boy asks.
"Someone pushed the outhouse into the creek today," the father replies. "It was you, wasn't it, son?"
The boy admits the deed, then adds, "I learned in school today that George Washington chopped down a cherry tree and didn't get in trouble because he told his dad the truth."
"But son," the father says, "Washington's dad wasn't in the cherry tree!"
