The Cell Phone Cure

  • February 19, 2013 9:42 AM PST
    After a tiring day, a commuter settled down in her seat and closed her eyes.
    As the train rolled out of the station, the guy sitting next to her pulled out his cell phone and started talking in a loud voice: "Hi sweetheart. It's Eric. I'm on the train".
    "Yes, I know it's the six thirty and not the four thirty, but I had a long meeting".
    "No, honey, not with that blonde from the accounts office. It was with the boss".
    "No sweetheart, you're the only one in my life".
    "Yes, I'm sure, cross my heart"
    Fifteen minutes later, he was still talking loudly.
    When the young woman sitting next to him had enough, she leaned over and said into the phone, "Eric, hang up the phone and come back to bed."
    Eric doesn't use his cell phone in public any longer.

    Several men are in the locker room of a golf club. A cell phone on a bench rings and a man engages the hands-free speaker function and begins to talk.

    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 $1,000. 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
    2006 models. I saw one I really liked."

    MAN: "How much?"

    WOMAN: "$80,000"

    MAN: "OK, but for that price I want it with all the options."

    WOMAN: "Great! Oh, and one more thing....the house we wanted last year is back on the market. They're asking $950,000."

    MAN: "Well, then go ahead and give them an offer, but just offer $900,000." WOMAN: "OK. I'll see you later! I love you!"

    MAN: "Bye, I love you, too." The man hangs up.

    The other men in the locker room are looking at him in astonishment.

    Then he asks: "Anyone know who this phone belongs to?"
