Gardening - Mexican Style

A true story told by L.A.P.D. An old Mexican man lived
alone in East Los Angeles. He wanted to spade his
garden, but it was very hard work. His only son, Jose,
who used to help him was in prison. The old man wrote
a letter to his son and described his predicament.

Dear Jose:
I am feeling pretty bad because it looks like I won't
be able to plant my garden this year. I'm just too old
! to be digging up a garden. If you were here, all my
troubles would be over. I know you would dig the
garden for me.

Tu Padre

A few days later, he received a letter from his son.

Dear Papa:
Por Dios, Papa, don't dig up the garden. That's where
I buried all my drugs and money.

Tu hijo,
Jose

At 6 a.m. the next morning, the L.A. Sheriffs showed
up and dug up the entire area without finding any
drugs or money. 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 your garden now, papa. It's the
best I could do under the circumstances.

Smile...its contagious
