The Bacon Tree
Two Mexicans are stuck in the desert,
wandering aimlessly and close to death.
They are close to just lying down and waiting
for the inevitable, when all of a sudden.......
"Hey Pepe, do you smell what I smell?
Ees bacon I ahm sure of eet."
"Si, Luis eet smells like bacon to meee".
So, with renewed strength, they struggle up
the next sand dune, and there, in the distance, is a
tree loaded with bacon.
There's raw bacon, dripping with moisture
there's fried bacon, back bacon, double smoked
bacon... every imaginable kind of cured pig meat.
"Pepe, Pepe, we ees saved!
Eet EES a bacon tree!"
"Luis, are you sure ees not a meerage?;
We ees in the Desert don't forget."
"Pepe when deed you ever hear of a meerage that
smeell like bacon...ees no meerage, ees a bacon
tree".
And with that ...Luis races toward the tree.
He gets to within 5 meters, with Pepe following
closely behind, when all of a sudden a machine gun
opens up and Luis is cut down in his tracks.
It is clear he is mortally wounded but, true
friend that he is, he manages to warn Pepe with his
dying breath.
"Pepe...go back man,you was right...ees not a
bacon tree."
Ees...
Ees.........
... Eees a Ham Bush!
