 An old Italian lived alone in New Jersey . He wanted to plant his annual tomato garden, but it was very difficult work, as the ground was hard.

Dear Vincent,: Q5 s6 k8 j) ]0 l/ q" L$ m1 I
I am 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, like in the old days.1 _9 |) N# n! I I

Don't dig up that garden. That's where the bodies are buried.
