Good News

Hiram answers the telephone, and it's an emergency room doctor.

The doctor says:

- Your wife was in a serious car accident, and I have bad news and good news. The bad news is she has lost all use of both arms and both legs, and will be on a respirator the rest of her life.

Hiram says:

- My God. What's the good news?

The doctor says:

- I'm kidding. She's dead.
