The funny thing is, I read that and thought, "Why don't you do two of them at a time? Pick up the baby with one arm while turning off the water on the way (I'm assuming you were standing next to the water when everything started). Grab the portable phone and walk with it to the door so that you can answer them both at the same time. The clothes I didn't worry about 'cause water isn't going to hurt them that much (and there I really disagree with their assessment!).

Yeah, when I solved it, I multitasked too.
Grab the baby, turn off the water, go to the door. Screw the phone cause I hate it anyway. Forget the clothes, they're already wet and have to be washed. I can get them after I greet my guest.

That was my solution, but since I had to choose just one I did, and it doesn't reflect me. Obviously a man came up with this one. Women are better at multi-tasking!
I'm in the multi-tasking camp as well. The tap wouldn't be running unless I was standing right there anyway--turn it off and pick up the baby or vice versa. Then answer the door and let the machine pick up the phone. Forget the clothes.
I would think that many men would have sex as a priority, but I don't think I know one man who would bring in clothes that are getting wet before answering the door, picking up the baby or even answering the phone (I do know men, however, who'd let the tap run ). I guess I don't see the relationship between clothes getting wet and sex. Unless the clothes getting wet is part of foreplay.
Rain wouldn't do much to the clothes, I don't answer the phone at all anyway (answering machines are wonderful), crying babies are generally OK (they're proving they're breathing, no?) and anyone coming to the door is either a stranger (who will go away) or a friend (who will wait). So I'd turn off the tap, yell "just a minute" at the door, and go grab Baby.

I don't see how turning the tap water off is wealth. I'm afraid it will overflow while I'm answering the phone or the door!
I picked baby first. But I could do it all in one trip.
And it's not fair that I have a clothes dryer...I had no idea my sex life would get better if I line dried!

Exactly! I turned off the water first because I must be standing there so I can swat it off with one hand ( I have one handle faucets) while I go to grab the baby and then get the door. I suppose its wealth because we don't want to waste water and therefore money, but maybe we're environmentally conscious tree huggers.
water can also overflow and cause a lot of damage, so turning it off is protecting your assets. Or something like that maybe.

See, it's all relative. I was shutting off the water, which I would assume a child had started running, most likely in the bathroom where they had toys or something else over the drain, which would then ruin my whole house.
There is ALWAYS someone crying, and they'll live for two seconds, but I need to grab my clothes because I'm way behind on laundry and I have a tiny washer. I can't afford the time to rewash them.
The door and phone can wait. I have caller ID and if some is at the door I care about, they'll walk in.
None of the interpretations made sense to me.
