·.·:*¨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
