Tomatoes

A woman's garden is growing beautifully but the darn tomatoes won't
ripen. There's a limit to the number of uses for green tomatoes and
she's getting tired of it.

So she goes to her neighbor and says, "Your tomatoes are ripe, mine
are green. What can I do about it?'' Her neighbor replies, "Well, it
may sound absurd but here's what to do. Tonight there's no moon. After
dark go out into your garden and take all your clothes off. Tomatoes
can see in the dark and they'll be embarrassed and blush. In the
morning they'll all be red, you'll see.''

Well, what the heck? She did as they adviced.

The next day her neighbor asks how it worked. "So-so,'' she answers,
"The tomatoes are still green but the cucumbers are all four inches
longer.''
