Wrong E—mail Address错的电子邮件地址

张恒

A couple was going on vacation， but his wife was on a business trip. So he went to the destination first and his wife would meet him the next day.

一对夫妇要出门度假，但是妻子正在出差，因此丈夫先去目的地，妻子在第二天将和他会合。

When he reached his hotel， he decided to send his wife a quick e-mail.

他到了旅馆后，决定给他妻子发一封简短的电子邮件。

Unfortunately， when typing her address， he mistyped a letter and his note was directed instead to an elderly preacher1s wife whose husband had passed away only the day before.

倒霉的是，在打她的地址时，他打错了一個字母，他的邮件发到了一个年老的牧师妻子的邮箱，这位牧师前一天才刚刚去世。

When the sad widow checked her e-mail， she took one look at the monitor， let out a scream， and fell to the floor in a dead faint2.

当悲伤的寡妇查看邮件的时候，一看到显示屏就发出一声尖叫，然后就摔倒在地上不省人事。

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

听到声响，她的家人冲进房间，看到了显示屏里的那封邮件：

Dearest Wife，

Just got checked in. Everything prepared for your arrival tomorrow.

P.S. Sure is hot down here.

亲爱的妻子：

我刚刚入住。我已做好准备迎接你明天到来。

另附：这里真热。endprint
