  • Two Mexicans are stuck in the desert after illegally crossing into the United States , wandering aimlessly and starving. They're about to just lie down and wait for death, when all of a sudden Luis says:

    "Hey Pepe, do you smell what I smell? Ees bacon, I theenk."

    "Si, Luis, eet sure smells like bacon."

    With renewed hope they struggle up the next sand dune, & there, in the distance, is a tree loaded with bacon.

    There's raw bacon, there's fried bacon, back bacon, double smoked bacon . . . every imaginable kind of cured pork.

    "Pepe, Pepe, we ees saved. Ees a bacon tree."

    "Luis, maybe ees a meerage? We ees in the desert, don't forget."

    "Pepe, since when deed you ever hear of a meerage that smell like bacon . . . ees no meerage, ees a bacon tree."

    And with that, Luis staggers towards the tree. He gets to within 5 metres, Pepe crawling close behind, when suddenly a machine gun opens up, and Luis drops like a wet sock. Mortally wounded, he warns Pepe with his dying breath,

    "Pepe . . . go back man, you was right, ees not a bacon tree!"

    "Luis, Luis mi amigo . . . what ees it?"

    "Pepe . . . ees not a bacon tree. Ees


    Ees


    Ees


    Ees



    Ees a ham bush."

    I bet you tried to do the accent, too, didn't you!!!
