An old man lived alone in Palestine. He wanted to dig his potato garden, but it was very hard for him. His only son, who would have helped him, was in prison in Israel.
The old man wrote a letter to his son and mentioned his predicament. The son replied promptly: " For HEAVENS' SAKE, Dad, don't dig up that garden. That's where I buried the GUNS! "
At 4 AM the next morning, a dozen Israeli soldiers showed up and dug up the entire garden. They found no guns. Confused, the old man wrote another note to his son, telling him what had happened and asked him what to do next.
" Now plant your potatoes, Dad " came the reply, " This is the best I can do for you at this time."
