Jim Cramer posted a long detailed version of the joke on the marxism list several months ago. I forget whether his post indicated whether it was "true" or a joke, but the version he fwd was in excellent narrative style. It began with several paragraphs describing the protagonist's morning, and climaxed with the phone call, taken on his cell phone in a taxi. He claimed that he was down in the coffee shop when his wife phoned earlier; only then was the date and place revealed.
