Old Man Kelsey here....been out of touch for a while.  Went down in  the 
woods and found some funny lookin' plants...leaves kinda star shaped. When I  
walked closer to look see what they was, why the Police come a'runnin' up 
and  slapped handcuffs on me and hauled me off to jail!!  Said I was a'growin' 
 an illegal plant and they said it was merry wanna?? Sumpin like that  
anyways.  I told them I ain't got no idee what they was a'yakkin' over  cause I 
ain't never seed none of it before. 
Well, they said they was gonna go back down there and pull up all the  
plants and use it as evidence agin' me in court, but when they got there, there 
 
won't nary a plant in sight!!  Whoever was growin' it had come got it and  
gone!!  Anyway, they said they guessed I was a'tellin' the truth and let me  
go, and even give me a ride back to my driveway. As I was a'walkin' back to 
the  house, this feller come runnin' outta the bushes and handed me a 
envelope and  said that was fer all the trubble they put me through, then he 
turnt and run  back thru the woods and was gone!!  When I got back to the house 
and set  myself down in the old rocker on the porch, I looked out over my 
woods and they  sure looked purty!!  Then I opened the envelope and found they 
had stuck  ten of them fifty dollar bills in thar!!! Goodness sakes alive!! 
 Whatever  that stuff was it sure musta been high priced!! Think I'll take 
that money and  buy some more shotgun shells and a few more cans of Spam and 
Po'k and Beans.  Mebbe a loaf of that store bought bread so's I ain't gotta 
fix my own biskits. 
Anyway, y'all have a good day and if you decide to plant any more of them  
weeds, go somewheres else!!
