How to work smart!

An old man who lived in Idaho wanted to hoe his potato garden, but it was very hard work. His only son, who used to help him, was in prison. He wrote a letter to the boy and described his predicament.

Dear son,
I'm feeling pretty bad because it looks like I won't be able to plant my potato garden this year. I am just getting too old to be digging up the garden plot. If you were here, all my troubles would be over. I know you will 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, Son

The next morning, at four, FBI agents and the local police showed up at the old man's house and dug up the entire garden. They found nothing, apologized, and left.
The same day, he received another letter from his son.

Dear Dad,
Go ahead and plant the potatoes now. That's the best I could do, under this circumstances.

Love,Son
