A Minneapolis couple decided to go to Florida to thaw out during a icy winter and planned to stay at the same hotel. Because of hectic schedules, the husband left on Thursday and his wife flew down on Friday.
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 e-mail address, and without realizing his error, sent the e-mail.
Meanwhile, somewhere in Houston, a widow had just returned home from her
husband's funeral. 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: October 16, 2004
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

That is hilarious!! What is sad is that I can see this happening. Anymore we aren't sure who is reading emails or to where they may be going! Thanks for a very good chuckle, I need that today. It has not been a good one and that helped!

Haha..and haha..Let me have a enough laugh before I could respond to your joke. Yes, this is indeed a very very funny joke. We all should be much careful in our works and businesses to avoid making this kind of mistakes.
PS: Your avatar is as funny as you joke and I like it very much.

Oh my goodness, what a shocker this would be :( But hey at least she got some warning and has time to change her final destination.
