Recently a DJML couple from Minnesota, ( the names have been left out to
protect the guilty) decided to go to Florida to thaw out during this years
particularly icy winter and take in the Dixieland Festival in Pensacola with Norm
Vickers and friends. They planned to stay at the same hotel where they spent
their honeymoon 50 years earlier. Because of their hectic schedules, it was
difficult to coordinate their travel arrangements. So the husband left Minnesota
and flew to Florida on Thursday, with his wife flying down the following day.
The husband checked into the hotel, and there was a computer in his room, so
he decided to send a e-mail to his wife. However, he accidentally left out
one letter in her e-mail address, and without realizing his error, he sent the
e-mail.
Meanwhile......Somewhere in Houston, a widow had just returned home from her
husband's funeral. (which Saint Gabriel's' Celestial Brass Band had Played)
He was a MINISTER of many years who was called home to glory following a
sudden heart attack.
The widow decided to check her e-mail, expecting messages from relatives and
friends. After reading the first message she 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
I know your surprised to hear from me. They have computers here now and
you're allowed to send e-mails to your loved ones. I've just arrived and have
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. It sure is hot down here!
Happy Hilarious Holidays
