Frank and Maybelle, an old couple who owned a small business, were sitting together on an airplane flying on their first vacation to Europe. Halfway through their trip the Captain announces: "Ladies and Gentlemen, I am afraid I have some terrible news. We're experiencing engine trouble and this plane will be forced to land immediately! Luckily, I see an island below us that should be able to accommodate our landing." A few minutes later the plane lands safely on the island and everyone deplanes and begin the task of figuring out what to do next. After a while old Frank turns to his wife and say's "This Island appears to be uncharted and desolate. In fact the Captain is unable to find it on any of his maps. So the odds are that we will never be rescued and will have to live on the island for a very long time, if not for the rest of our lives! This is horrible, simply horrible!"

After a few minutes his wife Maybelle asks, "Did we pay our quarterly Federal income tax yet?"

"No. What a silly thing to ask now!" says Frank.

She replies, "Did you remember to mail off our State taxes before we left?"

"No, I forgot to send the check, so what! Let 'em rot!"

"One last thing," says Maybelle, "Did you remember to send property tax check this month?"

"Nope, I'm afraid that I forgot that one too! And your point is?"

Maybelle begins to grin, "So what are you smiling about!?" an exasperated Frank asks.

"They'll find us!!" says Maybelle.
