Alaskan Crabs
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, and 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 my God!" exclaimed Wilkens. Swallowing hard, he asked,
"What's the good news?"
The trooper continued, "When we pulled her up, she had 12
twenty-five pound king crabs and 6 good-size Dungeness
crabs clinging to her."
Stunned, Mr. Wilkens demanded, "If that's the good new
s,
what's the great news?"
The trooper said, "We're going to pull her up again tomorrow.²
