A MISSING WIFE
Those Newfies (folks fromNewfoundland) are a lot smarter than we give them credit for...I think!

The day after his wife disappeared in a kayaking accident, a Twillingate, Newfoundland man answered his door to find two grim-faced RCMP officers.

"We're sorry Mr. Flynn, but we have some information about your wife," said one of the officers.

"Tell me! Did you find her?!" Cedric Flynn asked.

The troopers looked at each other. 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, Mr. Flynn said, "Give me the bad news first." The RCMP officer said, "I'm sorry to tell you, sir, but this morning we found your wife's body in the bay."

"Lord sufferin' Jesus!" exclaimed Flynn. Swallowing hard, he asked, "What could possibly be the good news?" The officer continued, "When we pulled her up, she had 12 of the best looking Atlantic lobsters that you have ever seen clinging to her. Haven't seen lobsters like that since the 1960's, and we feel you are entitled to a share in the catch."

Stunned, Mr. Flynn demanded, "If that's the good news, then what's the great news?"

The officer replied, "We're gonna pull her up again tomorrow."

The story is fine. I don't quite understand the picture or its correlation to your joke.

Sorry, I didn't explain it from the very beginning of the mysterious death, but here goes..........
They were man and women eating lobsters, so the police were taking no chances with further deaths. Originally when the woman's body was found, the first suspects in the murder investigation, was that the lobsters had savagely murdered the missing wife. That is why the armed police, as you can see in the photograph, were standing by at the water's edge, just in case the giant lobsters turned nasty. As it tuned out, the lobsters were quite friendly and passive and cooperated fully with the Canadian Police Force. No charges were made at all against the friendly lobsters, in fact they were delicious. Several were enjoyed at the police headquarters restaurant/canteen/whatever. I am sorry again, for not explaining the story or joke or whatever clear from the outset. I wish I could afford a big lobster, it'd be much better than this cheese sandwich I am having for my Sunday lunch with a glass of water.

About what?? You have once again failed to explain yourself. Why do you have this problem? Sit down try to think it out and perhaps you can come up with something better than a mindless sentence.
