THE PERFECT HUSBAND
There are several men sitting around in the locker room of a privateclub after exercising. Suddenly a cell phone on one of the benches rings. One of the men picks it up, and the following conversation ensues:
"Hello?"
"Honey, it's me. Are you at the club?"
"Yes."
"Great! I'm at the mall two blocks from where you are. I just saw a beautiful mink coat. It's absolutely gorgeous!! Can I buy it?"
"What's the price?"
"Only $11,500.00."
"Well, OK, go ahead and get it, if you like it that much..."
"Ahhh, and I also stopped by the Mercedes dealership and saw the 2001
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..."
"What price did he quote you?"
"Only $80,000..."
"OK, but for that price you should get it with all the options."
"Great! But before we hang up, something else..."
"What?"
"It might look like a lot, but I was reconciling your bank account and...
I stopped by the real estate agent this morning and saw the house we
had looked at last year. It's on sale!! Remember? The one with a pool, English
Garden, acre of park area, beach front property..."
"How much are they asking?"
"Only $1,850,000 - a magnificent price ... and I see that we have that much in the bank and the stock portfolio to cover..."
"Well, then go ahead and buy it, but just bid $1,720,000 and settle for $1,780,000.-. OK?"
"OK, sweetie...Thanks! I'll see you later!! I love you!!!"
"Bye..."
The man hangs up, closes the phone's flap, and raises his hand holding the
phone up in the air and asks all those present:
"Does anyone know who this phone belongs to?"
