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
The trooper said, 'I'm sorry to tell you,
we found your wife's body in Kachemak Bay
'Oh my God!' exclaimed Wilkens. Swallowing
hard, What could
be 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 news, what's the great news?'
The trooper said, 'We're going to pull her
up again tomorrow.'
