Member's interesting experience with Rocky Soil

An old gentleman, actually a F4Fun forum member, lived alone in Riverside, CA.
He wanted to plant some great large fig trees that he obtained through connections in this forum
but it was difficult work, as the ground was hard.
His only son, Vincent, who used to help him in the garden, is unfortunately now in prison.

The old man wrote a letter to his son and described his problem.  Here was his letter:

Dear Vincent,
I am feeling pretty sad because it looks like
I won't be able to plant these large fig trees I bought.
I'm just getting too old to be digging up a hole in this rocky soil.
I know if you were here my troubles would be over.
I know you would be happy to help me in the yard 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 yard, especially on the side where it gets the most sun.
That's where the bodies are buried.
               Love,
               Vinnie

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

That same day the old man received another letter from his son. 

Dear Papa,
Go ahead and plant the fig trees now.
That's the best I could do under the circumstances.
Love you,
Vinnie
