(My paperback novel, MURDER AT PALM PARK, is now available at CreateSpace.com and Amazon.com. Next week DAILY WALK WITH JESUS should be also available in paperback on those outlets.)
Have you ever make a mistake on an e-mail address? A Minnesota couple decided to go to Florida one cold winter. They planned to stay at the same hotel where they spent their honeymoon 20 years earlier, so it would be fun.
Because of their different work schedules, it was difficult to come on the same flight. So the husband flew to Florida on Thursday, and his wife had a ticket to fly there Friday. The husband checked into the hotel, saw a computer in their room and decided to send his wife an email.
However, he omitted one letter in her email address, so the message was not sent to his wife, but to a widow in Houston who had just returned home from her husband's funeral. He was a minister who'd died of a heart attack.
The widow checked her e-mail, expecting messages from relatives and friends, and after reading the first message, screamed and fainted. Her son rushed into the room to help his mother and saw the e-mail message. It read:
"To: My Loving Wife
Subject: I've Arrived
Date: July 19, 2013
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 checked in. I've made sure everything has been prepared for your arrival tomorrow. Looking forward to seeing you then! Hope your journey is as uneventful as mine was.
-- Your loving husband
P. S. It sure is hot down here!"
Today's WEEKLY MESSAGE has little to do with Labor Day or our Faith in Christ, but I hope it has lightened your day just a little.
