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 OK 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: "OK, but for that price, I want it with all the options."

WOMAN: "Great! Oh, and one more thing .....the house I wanted last

year is back on the market. They're asking $950,000."



MAN: "Well, then go ahead and give them an offer of $900,000. They

will probably take it. If not, we can go the extra 50 thousand. It is

really a pretty good price."

WOMAN: "OK. 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.....


Then he smiles and asks: "Anyone know who this phone belongs to???
