Wrong E-mail Address

Wrong E-mail Address

Lesson to be learned from typing the wrong email address:


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 plans.
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: April 6, 2007

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.
