Digging

Oliverdog

A man was walking his dog one warm afternoon when he saw a policeman in full uniform digging in a front garden.

"What's happened - has someone been murdered?" he said.

"No, I'm just putting in some potatoes" said the policeman.

"That's hot work in uniform" said the man.

"I'm a plain-clothes detective" said the policeman. "It's my day off today".

More Digging, it must be catching

Digging to a depth of 1,000 meters in rural France last year, archeologists found traces of copper wire dating back 1,000 years. The French came to the conclusion that their ancestors had a telephone network centuries ago.

Not to be outdone by the French, English scientists dug to a depth of 2,000 meters. Shortly thereafter headlines in the U.K. newspapers read:
"English archeologists have found traces of 2,000-year-old fiber-optic cable and have concluded that ancestors had an advanced high-tech digital communications network a thousand years earlier than the French."

One week later, Irish newspapers reported the following: "After digging as deep as 5,000 meters in a Dublin marketplace, scientists found absolutely nothing. They thus concluded that 5,000 years ago the Irish were using wireless technology.
