The day after a man lost his wife in a scuba diving accident off the coast of San Diego, he was greeted by two grim-faced policemen at his door.
"We're sorry to have to tell you this, sir, but we have some information regarding your wife," said one of the officers.
"Well, tell me!" the man pleaded.
The policeman said, "We have some bad news, some good news and some great news. Which do you want to hear first?"
Fearing the worst, the husband said, "Give me the bad news first."
So the policeman said, "I'm sorry to tell you sir, but this morning we found your wife's body in thirty feet of water, just off the coast."
"Oh, my God!" said the husband, overcome by emotion. Then remembering what the policeman said, he asked, "What's the good news?"
"Well," said the policeman, "when we pulled her up, she had five lobsters clinging to her."
"If that's the good news, what's the great news?" asked the husband.
The policeman said, "We're going to pull her up again tomorrow morning!"
