Mistaken identity
Several men are changing in the locker room of a golf club. A cell phone on a bench rings and one of the men engages the hands-free speaker function. 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 $3,000. 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 models. There’s one I really liked.”
MAN: “How much?”
WOMAN: “Ninety thousand dollars.”
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 $1,550,000.”
MAN: “Well, then, go ahead and give them an offer of one and a half. They will probably take it. If not, we can go the extra fifty thousand. It’s 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, astonished, mouths agape…
He smiles and asks, “Anyone know who this phone belongs to?”
