    Mike was a single guy living at home with his father and working in the
    family business. When he found he was going to inherit a fortune when his
    sickly father died, he decided he needed a wife with which to share his
    fortune.

    One evening at an investment meeting he spotted the most beautiful woman
    he had ever seen. Her natural beauty took his breath away. 'I may look like
    just an ordinary man,' he said to her, 'but in just a few years, my father will
    die, and I'll inherit a lot of money'

    Impressed, the woman obtained his business card and three days later, she
    became his stepmother.

    Women are so much better at estate planning than men.

    how true how true...especially if the man has one foot in the grave...lol

    An old Italian man lived alone in New Jersey. He wanted to plant his annual tomato garden, but it was very difficult work, as the ground was 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 be digging up a garden plot. I know if you were here, my troubles would be over. I know you would be happy to dig the plot for me, like in the old days.
    Love, Papa

    A few days later he received a letter from his son.

    Dear Pop,

    Don't dig up that garden. That's where the bodies are buried.
    Love, Vinnie

    At 4am the next morning, FBI agents and local police arrived and dug up the entire 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 Pop,

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


    Love it!
