WALKING ON WATER

A young man was nearing his 21st birthday and heard that his father, grandfather and great-grandfather had all gone out to the local lake and walked on water when they turned 21.  So, on his 21st birthday the guy and a friend rowed out onto the lake.  

The guy stood up and stepped out into the lake and nearly drowned.  Back at the homestead, he was distraught and asked his mother why he couldn't do like his ancestors and walk on water on his 21st birthday.  

"Because," she replied with sage wisdom, they were all born in January and you were born in July."
