The Truth

Two kids; Jimmy and Bobby, were hanging out. Jimmy told Bobby "If you wanna get money out of your family just go up to them and say, I know all about it!"

"Everyone has secrets, so even if you pretend to know them, they'll do anything to keep them hidden and give you money to stay quiet. Try it out, it works!"

So Bobby figured why not? and went home to give it a shot.

He went to his sister and said; "Sis, I know ALL about it!"

And she became very nervous. "Please, don't tell mom! Here, I'll give you five bucks to stay quiet!"

Bobby was very pleased. So he decided to go on and make more cash.

He went to his mother; "Mom, I know ALL about it!"

She became very nervous; "Please, don't tell your father! Here's ten dollars to stay quiet!"

Bobby was elated. He decided to try it again.

He went to his father; "Dad, I know ALL about it!"

His father actually had no idea what the boy was talking about but figured it was something he'd forgotten. "Don't tell your mom, son! Here's twenty bucks! Mums the word!"

Outside, Bobby was counting his cash and was delighted with himself. Then he saw the mailman and figured why not? I could always use more money.

So he went to the mailman and said "i know ALL about it!"

A look of shock crossed the mailman's face, then...a huge smile followed and he grabbed Bobby and hugged him tight.

"Oh SON, finally you know the truth!"
