Saturday Humor - Vinnie

Dave from Big Daddy Dave's sent this to me.

An old man wanted to plant a tomato garden, but it was difficult 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:

Dear Vincent,

I am feeling sad because I won't be able to plant my tomato garden this year.  I'm too old already.  I know if you were here, you would happily dig the plot for me like in the old days.

Love ~ Papa

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

Dear Papa,

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

Love ~ Vinnie

At 4 am the next morning, FBI agents and police arrived and dug up the entire area, without finding any bodies.  They apologized to the old man and left.

That day, he received another letter from his son:

Dear Papa,

Go ahead and plant the tomatoes now.  That's the best I could do under the circumstances.

Love you ~ Vinnie

Buyers Beware

I hate to go shopping, so the advent of on-line buying, especially with Amazon, works perfectly for me - I joined their "prime" to be able to afford the shipping.  But what I really like is the customer reviews I can find on "the net" about most things and especially the TV advertised items.  After seeing it on TV this morning, advertised by Tim Allen's "Home Improvement" sidekick, I was considering a "Pocket Hose", as Bev uses them a lot in the summer. 

I went to Amazon to check there price and noticed it had several customer reviews and I didn't have to read many before deciding to save my money.  This is not to say there are not good products being advertised but rather to suggest taking the time to do a little research before buying these and other products, especially those that sound too good to be true. 

While typing this, the "Wax Vac" was advertised - check it the reviews.

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by Almost Heaven South.
