An elderly couple were on a cruise and it was really stormy. They were
standing on the back of the boat watching the moon, when a wave came
up
and washed the old woman overboard. They searched for days and
couldn't
find her, so the captain sent the old man back to shore with the
promise
that he would notify him as soon as they found something. Three weeks
went by and finally the old man got a fax from the boat. It read:
"Sir,
sorry to inform you, we found your wife dead at the bottom of the
ocean.
We hauled her up to the deck and attached to her butt was an oyster
and
in it was a pearl worth $50,000 . please advise." The old man faxed
back: "Send me the pearl and re-bait the trap."
