The Potato Farmer
his potato garden but the task was too daunting for the old man
as the ground was hard. His only son, Sol, who used to help him dig, was in federal
prison for Insider Trading and Stock Fraud. The old man wrote a letter
to his son and described his predicament:
Dear Solly:
I am feeling pretty bad because it looks like I won’t be
able to plant my potato garden this year. 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.
Love, Papa
A few days later, the old man received a letter from his son:
Dear Papa:
For heaven’s sake Dad, don’t dig up that garden, that’s
where I buried the money & stocks.
Love, Solly
At 4:00 a.m. the next morning, a team of FBI agents and local
police arrived at the old man’s house and dug up the entire garden area
without finding any money or stocks. They apologized to the old
man and left.
Dear Papa:
Go ahead and plant the potatoes now. That’s the best I could
do under the circumstances.
Love, Solly
Oops……
Ok this isn’t really a joke but it is funny anyway so I included it. The Spokane Chiefs won the Memorial Cup by a score of 4-1 over the Kitchener Rangers. They have their trophy and now will you do with it. Not what happened accidentally, I am guessing.

The Mule
My friends Bubba and Junior decided that they would buy them a mule for their little vegetable farm, with gas getting so expensive, they could use the mule to plow up the garden spot, keep the grass down in the yard, and save on gas by riding into town for supplies.
So they went to a livestock auction and checked out the mules, boy they spotted a good one, a big ole stout dark brown mule. The mule stood almost 17 ½ hands tall, well proportioned and able to pull a double breaking plow. So Bubba and Junior decided to bid on it and buy it. Now these ole boys were exited,$500, up to $650,$800 dollars, they finally got the bid at $1200 dollars. Junior and Bubba loaded the ole mule up and off to the farm they went.
Now Bubba and Junior’s farm was up in the Buckeye Arkansas area, off of a county road. When they got to the farm they unloaded him, and hooked him up to the double breaking plow, and man did he go, it was like watching two kids on Christmas morning opening presents, Bubba would make a couple of rounds with the mule and Junior would holler,“let me plow a round or two.” Well this went on until it was time to put the ole mule up for the evening.
Bubba unhooked the mule from the plow and Junior led him to the barn. When Junior got the mule to the doorway of the barn, the mule’s ears touched the top of the door jam and he bulked. Bulked right there and set down on his back haunches and wouldn’t move, Junior pulled and pulled, couldn’t get him to move.
So Junior yelled at Bubba to come and help him, but to no prevail. They stood there for a little while and Bubba, said to Junior “ok, I have an idea. Now since his ears touch the top of the door way, and he won’t move, we’re just going to have to jack up the barn a little bit. So when he goes through the door way his ears don’t touch.” Damn Bubba you’re a Geniuses, I will go get the house jacks.”
As Bubba and Junior was out there jacking up each side of the front of the barn, two ole boys from Missouri drove up looking for directions to Mr. Herman’s place. Bubba told them how to get there.
Before the ole boys from Missouri left they asked Bubba and Junior what they were doing. Bubba told them about the mules ears and the door way. The ole boy from Missouri said to Bubba,“Well man, I ain’t trying to tell you, your business, But if it was me I think I’d just get me a shovel and dig out a little of that barn floor dirt and make a walk way. That way he would have to walk down in into walkway and he wouldn’t bump his ears and he would go on in”.
The two ole boys left and Junior turned to Bubba and said,“Them dumb sum bits!” Bubba replied,“Yep, them people from Missouri think they know everything. It’s not his legs that are too long it’s his DAMN EARS!”
