The day after his wife disappeared in a kayaking accident, an Anchorage man
answered his door to find two grim-faced Alaska State Troopers..."We're
sorry Mr. Wilkens, but we have some information about your wife," said one
trooper. "Tell me! Did you find her?" Wilkens shouted.
The troopers looked at each other. One said, "We have some bad news, some
good news, & some really great news. Which do you want to hear first?"
Fearing the worst, an ashen Mr. Wilkens 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 Kachemak Bay ."
"Oh no!" exclaimed Wilkens. Swallowing hard, he asked, "What's the good
news?"
The trooper continued, "When we pulled her up, she had a dozen 25 pound
king crabs & 6 good-size Dungeness crabs clinging to her, & we feel you are
entitled to a share in the catch." Stunned, Mr. Wilkens demanded, "If that's the
good news, what's the great news?"
The trooper said, "We're going to pull her up again tomorrow."
