:D This is a funny story: :eek:
A lesson to be learned from not proofing your email before sending
> it... A Minneapolis couple decided to go to Florida to thaw out during
> a particularly icy winter. They planned to stay at the same hotel
> where they spent their honeymoon 20 years earlier. Because of hectic
> schedules, it was difficult to coordinate their travel schedules. So,
> the husband left Minnesota and flew to Florida on Thursday, with his
> wife flying down the following day. The husband checked into the
> hotel. There was a computer in his room, so he decided to send an
> email to his wife. However, he accidentally left out one letter in her
> email address, and without realizing his error, sent the email.
> Meanwhile, somewhere in Houston, a widow had just returned home from her
> husband's funeral. He was a minister who was called 'Home to Glory'
> following a heart attack. The widow decided to check her email expecting
> messages from relatives and friends.
> After reading the first message, she screamed and fainted. The widow's son
> rushed into the room, found his mother on the floor, and saw the computer
> screen which read:
> To: My Loving Wife
> Subject: I've Arrived
> Date: October 16, 2004
> I know you're surprised to hear from me. They have computers here now and
> you are allowed to send emails to your loved ones. I've just arrived and
> have been checked in. I see that everything has been prepared for your
> arrival tomorrow. Looking forward to seeing you then! Hope your
> journey is as uneventful as mine was.
> P.S. Sure is freaking hot down here!
