The BaconTree
Two fellows are stuck in the Sonora 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 Jose, do you smell what I smell? It's bacon I am sure of it."
"Si, Luis. It smells like bacon to me."
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.
"Jose! Jose, we is saved. It's a bacon tree."
"Luis, are you sure it's not a mirage? We it's in the desert don't forget."
"Jose when deed you ever hear of a mirage that smell like bacon... it's no mirage, it's a bacon tree."
And with that, Luis races towards the tree. He gets to within 5 yards , Jose 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, a true friend that he is, he manages to warn Jose with his dying breath.
"Jose, go back man! You was right; it's not a bacon tree."
"Luis Luis mi amigo... what is it?"
"Jose, it's not a bacon tree...it's, it's, it's, it's a ham bush."
