Off topic - joke - the perils of email
A couple from Minneapolis decided to go to Florida to thaw out during
a particularly icy winter. They planned to stay at the very same hotel
where they spent their honeymoon 20 years earlier.
Because of hectic schedules, it was difficult to coordinate their
travel reservations. So, the husband left Minnesota and flew to Florida on
Thursday and his wife flew down the following day.
The husband checked into the hotel. There was a computer in his room,
so he decided to send an e-mail to his wife. However, he accidentally
left out one letter in her email address and without realizing his error,
he sent the e-mail.
Meanwhile... somewhere in Houston, a woman had just returned home
from her husband's funeral. He was a minister for many years and had been
"called home to glory" following a sudden heart attack. The widow decided to
check her e-mail, expecting messages from relatives and friends. After
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
> Date: 18 March 2004
> I know you're 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 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
