Willpower

An old man lived alone in Minnesota. He wanted to spade his potato garden,
but it was very hard work.


His only son, who would have helped him, was in prison. The old man wrote a
letter to his son and mentioned his situation.


   Dear Son, I am feeling pretty bad because it looks like I won't be able
to plant  my potato garden this year.



I hate to miss doing the garden, because your mother always loved planting
time. I'm just getting too old to  be digging up a  garden plot.If you were
here, all my troubles would be over. I know you would dig the plot  for me,
if you weren't in prison.


Love, Dad

.........

Shortly, the old man received this telegram:


" For Heaven's sake, Dad,don't dig up the garden!! That's where I buried the
GUNS!"    At  4a.m.



The next morning,



A dozen FBI agents and local police officers showed up and dug up the entire
garden without finding any guns.


Confused, the old man wrote another note to his son telling him what
happened, and a sked him what to do next.


His son's reply was: "Go ahead and plant your  potatoes, Dad. It's the best
I could do for you from here ."
