Several men are in the locker room of a golf club. A cell phone on a bench rings and a man engages the hands-free speaker function and begins to talk. Everyone else in the room stops to listen.
MAN: “Hello”
WOMAN: “Honey, it’s me. Are you at the club?”
MAN: “Yes.”
WOMAN: “I am at the mall now and found this beautiful leather coat. It’s only $1,000. Is it okay if I buy it?”
MAN: “Sure! Go ahead if you like it that much.”
WOMAN: “I also stopped by the Mercedes dealership and saw the new 2005 models. I saw one I really liked.”
MAN: “How much?”
WOMAN: “$90,000”
MAN: “Okay, but for that price I want it with all the options.”
WOMAN: “Great! Oh, and one more thing, darling. The house I wanted last year is back on the market. They’re asking $950,000.”
MAN: “Splendid! Go ahead and give them an offer of $900,000. They will probably take it. If not, we can go the extra $50,000 if it’s really a pretty good price.”
WOMAN: “Okay. I’ll see you later. I love you so much..!”
MAN: “Bye. I love you too.”
The man hangs up. The other men in the locker room are staring at him in astonishment, mouths agape…
The man smiles and asks: “Anyone know who this phone belongs to?”
