An old gentleman lived alone in New Jersey. He wanted to plant his annual tomato garden,
but it was very difficult 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 describing his predicament:
“Dear Vincent, I’m 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, just like in the old days.”
Love, Papa
A few days later he received a letter from his son:
“Dear Papa, Don't dig up that garden. That's where the bodies are buried.”
Love, Vinnie
At 4:00 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 Papa, Go ahead and plant the tomatoes now.
That's the best I could do under the circumstances.”
Love you, Vinnie
