A Son's Love.... 

An old man lived alone in the country. He wanted to dig his 
potato garden but it was very hard work as the ground was 
hard. His only son Tim, who used to help him, was in prison. 
The old man wrote a letter to his son and described his 
predicament. 

Dear Tim, 

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, don't dig up that garden! That's where I 
buried the BODIES. - Love Tim

At 4 am 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 potatoes now. That's the best I could do 
under the circumstances. - Love Tim
