One way to get your garden planted
The Tomato Garden
An old Italian lived alone in Pennsylvania He wanted to plant his annual
tomato garden, but it was very difficult work, as the ground was rock-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 sad, 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. I know if you were here my troubles would be over. I know you would
be happy to dig the plot for me, like in the old days.
Love, Papa
A few days later he received a letter from his son.
Dear Pop,
Don't dig up that garden. That's where the bodies are buried.
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 Pop,
Go ahead and plant the tomatoes now.
That's the best I could do under the cir****tances.
Love you, Vinnie
