A couple from Minneapolis decided to go to Florida for a long weekend to
thaw out during one particularly icy winter. They planned to stay at the
very same hotel where they spent their honeymoon 20 years ago. Because both
had jobs they found it difficult coordinating their travel schedules. It was
decided that the husband would fly to Florida on a Thursday, and his wife
would follow him the next day. Upon arriving as planned, the husband
checked into the hotel. In his room there was a computer so he decided to
send his wife an E-mail back in Minneapolis. However, he accidentally left
out one letter in her e-mail address, and sent the e-mail, without realizing
his error.
In Houston, a widow had just returned from her husband’s funeral. The
departed was a minister of many years who had been called home to glory
following a heart attack. The widow checked her e-mail, expecting messages
from relatives and friends. Upon reading the first message, she 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.
I know you are surprised to hear from me. They have computers here now and
you are allowed to send e-mails 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 hot down here!
