I did not want to ask this question, because I already sense the answer.

     "Did you throw something when Joey and I saw those dead wolves?"

     Kyle looked strangely at me. I was right about the answer.

     Slowly, he said, "NO!" Then, he added, "I thought about it, because I knew you'd come across those dead wolves, but I had to get home and use the can."

     I raised my eyebrows. "Really?"

     "Hey, I know where you're going with this," said Kyle. "I might pee in the woods, but when it comes to the other, no way am I going to use moss to wipe my butt."

     I tried to keep a poker face when I asked, "How come?"

     "Because, I got a rash after I did that!" he said.

     Then we looked at each other and laughed until we thought our sides would split open.
