Paula Bunyan was tired of her husband's love affair with the wilderness, and speaking of affairs, there was Babe. That blue haired bimbo was such an ox. What did he see in her?

In the end she decided to do something about it that would still get her the insurance money. Her plan was simple really, all she did was get into his back pack and magnetize the metal bottle caps of his favorite beer. When he put his compass in on top of the beer it immediately got all fouled up.

Her plan worked too, Paul was lost in the woods and she had a perfect alibi. She would have gotten away with it to, except that when Paul's body was finally recovered, the bottle caps attracted some tacks at the police station and the detective began putting her plan together.
