The Smuggler

Sam Lewis was a customs officer. He used to work in a small border town. The road was usually very quiet and there were not many travelers. It was not a very interesting job, but Sam liked an easy life. About once a week he used to meet an old man. His name was Draper. He always used to arrive at the border early in the morning in a big truck. The truck was always empty. After a while Sam became suspicious. He often used to search the truck, but never found anything. One day he asked Draper about his job. Draper laughed and said: "I am a smuggler". Last year Sam retired. He spent his savings on an expensive holiday. He flew to Bermuda, and stayed in a luxury hotel. One day he was sitting by the pool and saw Draper drinking champagne. Sam walked over to him.

Sam:

Hello, there!

Draper:

Hi!

Sam:

Remember me?

Draper:

Yes... Of course I do. You're a customs officer.

Sam:

I used to be, but I'm not anymore. I retired last month. I often used to

search your truck...

Draper:

...but you never found anything!

Sam:

No, I didn't. Can I ask you something?

Draper:

Of course you can.

Sam:

Were you a smuggler?

Draper

Sure I was.

Sam:

But ... the truck was always empty. What were you smuggling?

Draper:

Trucks.
