The day after her husband disappeared in a kayaking accident, in Claddaghduff, Ireland. Mrs O’Flynn answered her door to find two grim-faced Constables. "We're sorry, Mrs. O’ Flynn, but we have some information about your dear husband, Mick". "Tell me! Did you find him?" Mrs. O’Flynn asked.
The constables looked at each other and 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, Mrs. O’ Flynn said, "Give me the bad news first."
The constable said, "I'm sorry to tell you, dear lady, but early this morning we found your poor husband's body in the bay." "Lord sufferin' Jesus and Holy Mother of God!" exclaimed Mrs O’ Flynn. Swallowing hard, she asked, "What could possibly be the good news?"
The constable continued, "When we pulled the late, departed poor Mick up, he had 12 of the best-looking Atlantic lobsters that you have ever seen clinging to him. Haven't seen lobsters like that since the 1960's, and we feel you are entitled to a share in the catch."
Stunned, Mrs. O’ Flynn demanded, "Glory be to God, if that's the good news, then what's the really great news?"
The constable replied, "We're gonna pull him up again tomorrow."
