My brother sent me this email the other day and I'm not so sure I believe that the following story actually happened. I'm pretty sure it's your run of the mill internet forward, although this one doesn't tell you to make a wish and then require you to pass it on to 10 of your friends to ensure that said wish comes true. In fact, many of you may have come across it before (it seemed vaguely familiar to me as I read it). It's just interesting and creative enough that people will continue to pass it on to their family and friends when it comes their way. It's probably even been emailed more times than this internet gem. Seriously, my apologies if your mom sent you this 5 years ago, but here it is:
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, the husband left Minnesota 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 the room so he decided to send an email to his wife.
However, he accidently 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 had a heart attack and died. 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 and saw the computer screen, which read:
To: My Loving Wife
Subject: I've Arrived
I know your'e surprised to hear from me. They have computers here now and you're 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. Looking forward to seeing you then! Hope your journey is as uneventful as mine was.
P.S. Sure is freaking hot down here!
No way this is a true story, right?
