Awaiting your Arrival
A couple from Minneapolis decided to go to Florida for a long weekend to thaw out during one particularly icy winter.
Because both had jobs, they had difficulty coordinating their travel schedules. It was decided that the husband would fly to Florida on a Thursday, and his wife would follow him the next day.
Upon arriving as planned, the husband checked into the hotel.
There, he decided to open his laptop and send his wife an e-mail. However, he accidentally missed out one letter in her address.
In Houston, a widow had just returned from her husband’s funeral. He was a minister of many years who had been ‘called home to glory’ following a heart attack.
The widow checked her e-mail, expecting messages from relatives and friends. On reading the first message, she fainted and fell to the floor. Her son rushed into the room, found his mother on the floor, and saw the computer screen which read:
To: My Loving Wife
From: Your Departed Husband
Subject: I’ve arrived!
I’ve just arrived and 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.

Three dead bodies turn up at the mortuary, all with very big smiles on
their faces. After autopsies, the pathologist calls the police to tell
them what has happened.
"First body: a Mkamba, 60, died of heart failure while making love to
his mistress. Hence the enormous smile,
"Second body: "a Luo, 25, won a hundred thousand shillings in the
sweepstakes, spent it all on whisky & cham. Died of alcohol poisoning,
hence the smile."
The Inspector asked, "What of the third body?"
"Ah," says the pathologist, "this is the most unusual one.
Harvester Khayega, Luhyia from Funyula, 30, struck by
lightning."
"Why is he smiling then?" inquires the Inspector.
"Thought he was having his picture taken."
