Little Johnny is constantly late for school and what’s worse is that he always has a big lie explaining why.<>
The teacher tells the principal that she has had it with his exaggerations.<>
The principal tells her to send Johnny to him the next time he shows up late. <>
He will tell Johnny a lie so big that he will never tell another one. Ever.<>
The next day, Johnny shows up two hours late.<>
Johnny says, “I was two hours early today so I had time to fish in the pond on my way to school. <>
I caught a 17-pound trout and had to take it home. <>
If I didn’t clean it and freeze it, my mom would’ve been angry. That’s why I’m so late”.<>
The teacher promptly takes him to the principal’s office and explains the story to the principal.<>
The principal tells Johnny about his own trip to school that day.<>
He says, “I was walking to school through the park on the trail today when I heard something behind me. <>
I turned around and was shocked to see a giant grizzly bear behind me. <>
He was 24 feet tall and had 6-inch fangs. He was going to eat me, Johnny! Just then a little dog ran out from the bushes, jumped up and attacked the bear. <>
The little dog killed the bear and then ate the whole bear right there in front of me. What do you think of that, Johnny?”<>
Johnny replies, “Oh yeah, that’s my dog Sparky. That’s his third bear this week.”<>
