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 Minneapolis 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, 2006

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
