Subject: Hearing Problem
An older man visited his doctor. He explained that his wife
was hard of hearing and wanted to know what to do.
"Here's what you do," said the doctor, "stand about 40 feet
away from her and talk in a normal conversational speaking
tone to see if she hears you. If not, go to 30 feet, then 20
feet, and so on until you get a response."
That evening, the wife is in the kitchen cooking dinner, and he
was in the den. He thinks 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 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, no response.
So, he walks up to the kitchen door, about 10 feet away and
asks, "Honey, what's for dinner?"
Again, there is no response!
So, he walks right up behind her..... "Honey, what's for dinner?"
She replies, "Ralph, for the FIFTH FREAKING TIME.......
CHICKEN!!!"
