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 badly 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. Love, Dad
A few days later he received a letter from his son:
Dear Dad,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 sonear Dad, Go ahead and plant the tomatos now. That's the best I could do
under the circumstances. Love you, Vinnie
