One night recently, my phone rang several times throughout the evening. Each time, a woman`s voice asked for Ben. Each time Ipolitely explained that I lived alone, my name wasn`t Ben, and she had a wrong number. The fifth time she called, I had had enough."Hello?" I said."Can I speak to Ben, please?"I replied, "I`m sorry, he`s not in right now. Can I take a message?""Do you know what time he`ll be back?" she responded."I think he said he`d be home around 10:00."Silence on the other end... a confused silence."Is this Steve?""Yes, it is. Do you want to leave a message for Ben?""Well... he said he would be home tonight and asked me to call him," she said in a slightly irritated voice.I replied, "Well, he went out with Karen about an hour ago and said that he would be back at 10:00."A shocked voice now: "Who`s Karen?!""The girl he went out with.""I know that!

Let me show you what I mean."With that the father went to the telephone and dialled a number at random. To the man who answered the phone, he said, "Hello, is Melvin there?"The man answered, "There is no one living here named Melvin. Why don`t you learn to look up numbers before you dial them?""See," said the father to his daughter. "That man was not a bit happywith our call. He was probably very busy with something and we annoyed him. Now watch...."The father dialled the number again. "Hello, is Melvin there?" asked the father."Now look here!" came the heated reply. "You just called this number andI told you that there is no Melvin here! You`ve got a lot of nerve calling again!" The receiver slammed down hard.The father turned to his daughter and said, "You see, that was anger.
