Re: ARJokes (assorted)
**An old man lived alone in Minnesota. He wanted to spade his potato garden, but it was very hard work. **
***His only son, who would have helped him, was in prison. The old man wrote a letter to his son and mentioned his situation.
**Dear Son, **
**I am feeling pretty bad because it looks like I won't be able to plant my potato garden this year.
I hate to miss doing the garden, because your mother always loved planting time. I'm just getting too old to be digging up a garden plot.If you were here, all my troubles would be over. I know you would dig the plot for me, if you weren't in prison. **
**Love, Dad **
.........
**Shortly, the old man received this telegram: **
**'For Heaven's sake, Dad,don't dig up the garden!! That's where I buried the GUNS!' **
**At 4 a.m the next morning, a dozen FBI agents and local police officers showed up and dug up the entire garden without finding any guns. **
**Confused, the old man wrote another note to his son telling him what happened, and asked him what to do next.
His son's reply was: 'Go ahead and plant your potatoes, Dad. It's the best I could do for you from here' **
