Proof reading

1 . A daughter sent a telegram to her father on passing her B.Ed
exams, which the father received as "Father, your daughter has been
successful in BED."

2. A husband, while on a business trip to a hill station sent a
telegram to his wife "I wish you were here." The message received by
the wife was "I wish you were her."

3. A man wanted to celebrate his wife's Birthday by throwing a
party. So he ordered a birthday cake. The salesman asked him what
message he wanted put on the cake. He thought for a moment and said,
"put getting older but you are getting better". The salesman asked
"how do you want me to put it?" The man said ' Well...put "You are
getting older" at the top and "but you are getting better" at the
bottom. When the cake was unveiled at the party all the guests were
aghast at the message on the cake.
It read : "You are getting older at the top, but you are getting
better at the bottom"

Moral of the Story:
1. Double proof read everything before you send.
2. Don't trust others to write it right for you.
