family tradition. His father, grandfather and great-grandfather had all been
able to walk on water on their 21st birthdays. They walked across the lake on
their way to the boat club for their first legal drink.
When his 21st birthday came around, Ole and
his pal took a boat to the middle of the lake. Ole stepped out of the boat and
nearly drowned! Confused, he went to see his grandmother. He asked, "Grandma,
it’s my 21st birthday, why can’t I walk across the lake like my father, his
father, and his father too?"
Granny looked into Ole's eyes and said, "But
their birthdays were in January. Yours is in June!"
