Why did you set the building on fire? Aren’t you aware that arson is a serious charge?
Prisoner:
Well ya see ma’am, my ole’ lady put her foot down and said she wasn’t going to fix me any supper ‘til I fixed the darn chicken shed. I was outta nails and couldn’t do any fixin’ on the shed and I was gettin’ mighty hungry. I thought a fella could fry his own chicken, so I set the shed on fire. Next thing I know I’m bein’ hauled off to jail for something called arson!
