Another reason not to have a cell phone:
Several men are in the locker room of a golf club,
showering, getting changed for the 19th hole. When a
cell phone on a bench rings, a man picks it up, engages
the hands-free speaker function, and begins a
conversation: (M=man, W=wife):
M: "Hello?"
W: "Honey, it's me. Are you at the club?"
M: "Yes."
W: "Great! I am at the mall two blocks from where you are.
I just saw a beautiful leather coat. It's absolutely
gorgeous!! Can I buy it?"
M: "What's the price?"
W: "Only $1,000."
M: "Well, OK, go ahead and get it, if you like it that much."
W: "Uhhh, and I also stopped by the Mercedes dealership and
saw the 2002 models. I saw one I really liked. I spoke with
the salesman, and he gave me a really good price... and since
we need to exchange the BMW that we bought last year..."
M: "What price did he quote you?" W: "Only $60,000."
M: "OK, but for that price, I want it with all the options."
W: "Great! But before we hang up, something else..."
M: "What?"
W: " I stopped by the real estate agent this morning and saw
the house we looked at last year. It's for sale!! Remember?
The one with a pool, English Garden, acre of park area,
beachfront property."
M: "How much are they asking?"
W: "Only $950,000 - a magnificent price. It may seem like a
lot, but I was reconciling your bank account...and I see that
we have enough in the bank to cover the down."
M: "Well, then go ahead and buy it, but just bid up to
$920,000. OK?"
W: "OK, sweetie...Thanks! I'll see you later!! I love
you!!!"
M: "Bye...I love you too..."
The man hangs up and closes the phone's flap. The other men
are looking at him in astonishment and derision. The man
holds up the phone and asks "Anyone know who this phone
belongs to?"
Oh. and by the way...TOMORROW IS MY BIRTHDAY...
E-GREETINGS ACCEPTED!!!
