SMUGGLING

         There was an old woman who crossed the 
  Mexican frontier everyday on a motor scooter
  with a sack of sand behind her.
         The customs officer eventually became 
  suspicious and inquired, " What have you got in 
  that sack?" "Only sand, sir," came the reply.
  The officer emptied the sack and, indeed, it 
  contained nothing but sand. And so it went on 
  for a month.
         One day, the officer said to the old woman,
  "I won't arrest you or say anything to the 
  police, but just tell me: are you smuggling or 
  not?" "Yes," she answered truthfully. "Well,
  what are you smuggling?" he pressed her. With a
  smile, she replied, "Scooters."
