A cell phone on a bench rings. A man engages the hands-free speaker function and begins to talk.
Everyone 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 $2,500. Is it OK if I buy it?"
Man: "Sure, go ahead if you like it that much."
Woman: "I also stopped by the Mercedes Benz dealership and saw the new 2007 models. I saw one I really liked."
Man: "How much?"
Woman: "$50,000"
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 "$250,000"
Man: "Well, then go ahead and give them an offer of $200,000. They will probably take it. If not, we can go the extra $30,000 if it's really a pretty good buy."
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.
