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, it was difficult to coordinate their travel schedules. So, the husband left Minnesota and flew to Florida on Thursday, with his wife flying down the following day. |
thaw out – rozmrażać się, odtajać honeymoon – miesiąc miodowy hectic schedules – napięte plany/terminy the following day – następnego dnia |
|
The husband checked into the hotel. There was a computer in his room, so he decided to send an email to his wife. However, he accidentally left out one letter in her email address, and without realizing his error, sent the email to another recipient. |
check into the hotel – zameldować się w hotelu leave out – pominąć, opuścić |

Meanwhile, somewhere in Houston, a widow had just returned home from her husband's funeral. He was a minister who was called home to glory following a heart attack. 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, found his mother on the floor, and saw the computer screen which read: |
widow – wdowa funeral – pogrzeb faint – zemdleć following – tu: w rezultacie, po be called home to glory – przenieść się na tamten świat, umrzeć |
