Default Bad news, Good news, Great news

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