10. Almost the same thing as yours
Sent a political joke about Bush to a guy named George in our company, and it went to a client name George at the U.S.P.S. instead. (That auto-insert function of Explorer is DANGEROUS). Fortunately the joke was 100% clean and not too vicious.

Also, I have a policy that has served me REALLY well of never emailing anything that I wouldn't want read widely. Last year, someone emailed me a picture of a bunch of my college friends who all looked amazing 20 years later, except one guy who had gotten fat and bald. I wrote a snarky reply, then remembered my policy, and then changed to the more benign "the only one I didn't recognize was Tim". Well, of COURSE the guy forwarded it to Tim, but at least I was able to weasel my way out of that one saying his hair had gotten really blond down there in Florida, whereas something like "how come only Tim got fat and bald?" would've been a little tougher to handle.
