How about a laugh, (hopefully)

With Farmers' Markets beginning springtime operations, here is one for you.

In the rolling countryside, there was a monestery where the monks tended beautiful gardens with veggies and fruits. There was one particular monk who had a green thumb for raising beautiful flowers. So, he decided to share the overabundant flowers at the local farmers market, and soon word spread and people came from all of the neighboring towns to buy these blooms.
Well, it didn't take long before the town began receiving complaints about the parking and traffic problems that this was causing. So they asked the monk to take his flowers elsewhere, but he politely refused and the traffic complaints continued. Multiple attempts to disuade the monk, were not getting anywhere, and the problem even became a major topic that stumped the city council. It seemed that there was no resolution that anyone could find...until one day the mayor was talking to a friend about this impossible situation. The friend told the mayor that he knew the perfect solution. He told the mayor to call a man named Hugh.

"Why should I call Hugh?" asked the mayor in disbelief when nothing else had worked. How could Hugh help us?

His friend replied, "Only Hugh can prevent florist friars".
