Deaf Wife Problem....


The  Deaf Wife Problem
>
> Bert  feared his wife Peg 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 so 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 closer to the kitchen, about 30  feet from his
> wife and repeats, 'Peg, 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. 'Peg, what's for dinner?'
>

> 'For  Goodness sake, Bert, for the FIFTH time,  CHICKEN!!!!!
