Man Overboard

An elderly couple were on a cruise and it
was really stormy. They were standing on
the back of the ship watching the moon,
when a wave came up and washed the old
man overboard. They searched for days and
couldn't find him. So the captain sent
the old woman back to shore with the
promise that he would notify her as soon
as they found something.

Three weeks went by and finally the old
woman got a fax from the ship.
It read: "Ma'am, sorry to inform you, we
found your husband dead at the bottom of
the ocean. We hauled him up to the deck
and attached to his back end was an oyster
and inside the oyster was a pearl worth
$50,000....please advise."

The old woman faxed back: "Send me the
pearl and re-bait the trap."
