A couple from Minneapolis decided to go to Florida for a long
weekend to thaw out from winter. They planned to stay at the same
hotel where they spent their honeymoon 20 years before. Because
both had jobs, they found it difficult to coordinate their travel
schedules, so 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 address, and sent the e-mail, without realizing his
error.
In Houston, a widow had just returned from her husband's funeral.
The dearly departed had been a minister who was 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
You're probably 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 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!
