Tomato Gardens
I received this via e-mail:
Subject: The Italian Tomato Garden
An old Italian man lived alone in the country. He wanted to dig his
tomato garden, but it was very hard work as the ground was hard. His only
son, Vincent, who used to help him, was in prison. The old man wrote a
letter to his son and described his predicament.
Dear Vincent,
I am feeling pretty bad because it looks like I won't be able to plant my
tomato garden this year. I'm just getting too old to be digging up a
garden plot. If you were here my troubles would be over. I know you would
dig the plot for me.
Love Dad
A few days later he received a letter from his son.
Dear Dad,
Not for nothing, but don't dig up that garden. That's where I buried the
BODIES.
Love Vinnie
At 4 a.m. the next morning, FBI agents and local police arrived and dug up
the entire area without finding any bodies. They apologized to the old man
and left.
That same day the old man received another letter from his son.
Dear Dad,
Go ahead and plant the tomatoes now. That's the best I could do under the
circumstances.
Love Vinnie

OH! Because the FBI dug it for him. I'm slow so I didn't get it at first.
fitch,
Nice touch having the FBI dig it for him.
My sister sent that story story to me. She heard it from her husband, a prison guard. It was funny then and it's still funny. Thanks for the chuckle.
indigo red,
You're welcome.
