Hoe, Hoe, Hoe
An old man lived alone in Idaho. He wanted to spade his potato
garden, but it was very hard work. His only son, Bubba, who used to
help him, was in prison. The old man wrote a letter to his son and
mentioned his predicament.
Dear Bubba,
I am feeling pretty bad because it looks like I won't be able to
plant my potato garden this year. 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.
Love, Dad
A few days later he received a letter from his son.
Dear Dad,
"For HEAVEN'S SAKE, Dad, don't dig up the garden! That's where I
buried the GUNS!"
Love, Bubba
At 5 A.M. the next morning, a dozen FBI agents and local police
officers showed up and dug up the entire area, without finding any
guns. 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 potatoes now. That was the best I could do under
the circumstances.
Love, Bubba
