An old Italian gentleman lived alone in New Jersey. He wanted to plant his annual tomato crop but it was very difficult work as the ground was so hard. His only son Vincent, who used to help him was in prison. The old man wrote a letter to his son and described his predicament. "Dear Vincent, 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 do the digging, it's a big plot. I know if you were here my troubles would be over for I know you would be happy to dig it over for me, like in the old days. Love from your Papa." A few days later he received a reply from his son which read "Dear Papa, Don't dig up that plot. That's where the bodies are buried. Your loving son Vincent." At 4 am the next morning the forensic police team arrived. They dug up the entire area without finding any bodies and apologized to the old man and left. That same day he got another letter from his son. "Dear Papa, Go ahead and plant your tomatoes now. That's the best I could do under the circumstances. Your loving son Vinnie."

OMG Are you an archaeologist in your spare time? I think this was inscribed on an Etruscan pot! Here[^] is what Messrs Snopes have to say on the subject.
