Desert food

[Wolfie]

There are two guys who have been lost in the desert for weeks, and

they're at death's door. As they stumble on, hoping for salvation in the

form of an oasis or something similar, they suddenly spy, through the

heat haze, a tree off in the distance. As they get closer, they can see

that the tree is draped with rasher upon rasher of bacon. There's smoked

bacon, crispy bacon, life-giving juicy nearly-raw bacon, all sorts.

 

"My God, Pepe" says the first bloke. "It's a bacon tree !!! We're

saved!!!"

 

"You're right" says Pepe, "Praise the Lord!"

 

So Pepe goes on ahead and runs up to the tree salivating at the prospect

of food. But as he gets to within five feet of the tree, there's the

sound of machine gun fire, and he is shot down in a hail of bullets. His

friend quickly drops down on the sand, and calls across to the dying

Pepe.

 

"Pepe, Pepe - what happened?"

 

With his dying breath Pepe calls out...."Ugh, run, run ! it wasn't a

Bacon Tree it was a........Ham Bush...."
