A man feared his wife was not 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."

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, 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?"

(I just love this.)

"Earl, for the 5th time, CHICKEN!"
