[nilesfunnies] Fw: Planting potatoes

(Last time I heard this joke it was an Irishman in prison -- that's where
I hid the loot)



Planting potatoes
An old Arab lives close to New York City for more than 40 years.
He would love to plant potatoes in his garden, but he is alone,old
and weak.

His son is in college in Paris, so the old man sends him an e-mail.
He explains the problem: "Beloved son, I am very sad,because I can't
plant potatoes in my garden.
I am sure, if only you were here, you helped me and dug up the garden
for me.

I love you, your father."

The following day, the old man receives a response e-mail from his
son:
"Beloved father, please don't touch the garden. It's there that I
have hidden 'the THING'. I love you, too, Ahmed".

At 4pm the US Army, The Marines, the FBI, the CIA and the Rangers
visit the house of the old man, take the whole garden apart, search every
inch, but can't find anything. Disappointed they leave the house.

A day later, the old man receives another e-mail from his son.
"Beloved father, I hope the garden is dug up by now and you can plant
your potatoes. That's all I could do for you from here. I love you,
Ahmed."
