The Trouble With Email : It's wise to remember how easily email, 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 e-mail. Unable to find the scrap of paper on which he had written her e-mail address, he did his best to type it in from memory.
Unfortunately, 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 e-mail, 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 is prepared for your arrival tomorrow.
PS. Sure is hot down here.

A couple in their 40's are in bed, sound asleep, when they hear a knock at the door. The husband goes downstairs to find out who is there.
At the door a drunk man is standing in the pouring rain. "H-hey bud-buddy, ya reckon you could give ush a pussshhhh?!?"
The man screams at the top of his lungs: "WHAT, YOU ARE INSANE!? You come to my house at 2 in the morning, it is raining and you want me to give you a push?! No sir, I bid you good night!"
The man slams the door in the drunk's face and hastily climbs back up the stairs. He crawls into bed and his wife asks who it was. "It was a drunk man wanting a push"
His wife sits up and turns the bedside light on. "And you didn't give him one?"
"No", says the man.
"Arthur, what if it was you out in the rain at 2am. We are the only house around for 40 miles and you just want him to wallow around in the rain all night? You get down there and you help that man!!"
So Arthur walks down the stairs, gets his boots and raincoat on and steps outside. "Hello?!! You still there?"
"Yeahhhh"
"Where are ya?"
"I'm on the swing!"

Due to a mixup on Grammy night, Madonna, Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera are forced to share a private jet in order to arrive in time for the ceremony.
Once up in the air, Madonna pulls out a $1000 bill and says "I’m going to throw this $1000 bill out the window and make someone down below very happy."
Not to be outdone, Britney ripped $1000 bill in half and threw it out the window, saying, "Look, I just made two people really happy."
Not even noticing Britney’s stupid move, Christina bragged, "Look, I’m going to throw 1000 $1 bills and make a lot more people a little happier." At this point the pilot, who has overheard all this bragging and can’t stand it anymore, comes out and says, "I think I’ll throw all three of you out of this plane and make 250 million people happy.

Eleven people were hanging on a rope, under a helicopter - 10 men and 1 woman.
The rope was not strong enough to carry them all, so they decided that 1 had to leave, because otherwise they were all going to fall. They weren't able to choose that person, until the woman gave a very touching speech. She said that she would voluntarily let go of the rope, because, as a woman, she was used to giving up everything for her husband and kids or for men in general, and was used to always making sacrifices with little in return. As soon as she finished her speech, all the men started clapping...
