A man feared his wife
wasn't hearing as well as she used to and he
thought she might
need a hearing aid. Not quite sure how to approach her,
he called the family Doctor to discuss the
problem.
The Doctor told him there is a simple informal test the
husband could perform to give the Doctor a
better
idea about her hearing loss.
Here's what you
do," said the Doctor, "stand about 40 feet
away from her, and in a normal conversational
speaking tone see if
she hears you.
If not, go to 30
feet, then 20 feet, and s o on until you get a
response."
That evening, the
wife is in the kitchen cooking dinner,
and he was in the den. He says to himself,
"I'm about 40
feet away, let's see what happens."
Then in a normal tone
he asks, 'Honey, what's for dinner?"
No response.
So the husband moves
to closer to the kitchen,
about 30 feet from
his wife and repeats, "Honey,
what's for dinner?"
Still no response.
Next he moves into
the dining room where he
is about 20 feet from his wife and asks, Honey, what's for
dinner?"
Again he gets no
response so,
He walks up to the
kitchen door, about 10 feet away.
"Honey, what's for dinner?"
Again there is no
response.
So he walks right up
behind her. "Honey, what's for dinner?"

"Smith, for the
FIFTH time I've said, CHICKEN!"
Moral of the story:
The problem may not
be with the other
one as we always
think, could be very much within us
