Email Mistakes

    It's wise to remember how easily email -- this wonderful technology
    -- can be misused, sometimes unintentionally, with serious
    consequences.

    Consider the case of the Illinois man who left the snow-filled
    streets of Chicago for a vacation in Florida. His wife was on a
    business trip and was planning to meet him there the next day. When
    he reached his hotel, he decided to send his wife a quick email.

    Unfortunately, when typing her address, he missed one letter, and his
    note was directed instead to an elderly preacher's wife whose husband
    had passed away only the day before. When the grieving widow checked
    her email, she took one look at the monitor, let out a piercing
    scream, and fell to the floor in a dead faint.

    At the sound, her family rushed into the room and saw this note on
    the screen:

    "Dearest Wife, Just got checked in. Everything prepared for your
    arrival tomorrow. P.S. Sure is hot down here."
