Wife Lost in Kayaking Accident in Maine...

The day after his wife disappeared in a kayaking accident, a Bar Harbor
man answered his door to find two grim-faced Maine State Troopers.

"We're sorry Mr. Wilkins, but we have some information about your wife,"
said one of the troopers."

Tell me! Did you find her?" Wilkins exclaimed.

The troopers looked At each other.

One said, "We have some bad news, some good news, and some really
great news. Which would you like to hear first?"

Fearing the worst, Wilkins said, "Give me the bad news first."

The trooper said, "I'm sorry to tell you, sir, but this morning we found your
wife's body in the bay."

"Oh my God!" exclaimed Wilkins. Swallowing hard, he asked, "What's the
good news?"

"The trooper continued, "When we pulled her up, she had 12 of the best
looking Maine lobsters that you have ever seen and 60 good-sized rockfish
clinging to her. Haven't seen lobsters like that since the '60s and we feel
you are entitled to share in the catch."

Stunned, Wilkins demanded, "If that's the good news, then what's the
great news?"

The trooper replied, "We're gonna pull her up again tomorrow."
