Sven & Ollie are working for the city of Minneapolis. Sven would dig a hole - he would dig, dig, dig. Ollie would come along and fill the hole - fill, fill, fill. Sven and Ollie worked furiously; one digging a hole, the other filling it up again. … …. A man was watching from the sidewalk and couldn’t believe how hard the two men were working, but couldn’t understand what they were doing. Finally he had to ask them. He said to Sven, the hole digger, “I appreciate how hard you work, but what are you doing? You dig a hole and your partner comes along behind you and fills it up again!” Sven, hole digger replied, “Jah, I suppose it does look foonny, but Lars, da guy who plants da trees, is sick today.”
