Suddenly a mobile phone on one of the benches rings. One of the men picks it up, and the following conversation ensues:

(H – Husband, W – Wife)

H – “Hello ?”

W – “Honey, it’s me. Are you at the club? “

H – “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?”

H -”What’s the price?”

W – “Only $1,000.”

H – “Well, OK, go ahead and get it, if you like it that much…”

W -”Ahhh, and I also stopped by the Mercedes dealership and saw the 2005 models. I saw one I really liked. It’s a SLK model. 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…

H – “What price did he quote you?”

W – “Only $65,000…”

H – “OK, but for that price I want it with all the options.”

W – “Great! But before we hang up, something else…

H -”What?”

W – “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 for sale!! Remember? The one with a pool, English garden, acre of park area, beach front property.”

H – “How much are they asking?”

W – “Only $450,000 — a magnificent price.. .and I see that we have that much in the bank to cover…”

H – “Well, then go ahead and buy it, but just bid up to $420,000. OK?”

W – “OK, sweetie…Thanks! I’ll see you later!! I love you!!!”

H – ” Bye…I love you too…”
