HUH? Man vs. Woman / Getting Old(er) / Back Home
Thanks to Mary Lou for this one!
A man feared his wife was not hearing as well as she used to, she might need a hearing aid.
Not quite sure how to approach her, he
called the family Dr. to discuss the problem. The Dr. told him there was a
simple informal test the husband could do, to give the Dr. a better idea about
her hearing loss.
The Dr. said ... "Stand about 40 feet away from her and in normal conversational
voice see if she hears you.
If not, go to 30, then 20 feet and so on until you get a response."
That evening, his wife is in the
kitchen cooking dinner, and he was in the den. He decides he's about 40 feet
away. Let's see what happens. In a normal tone he asks .., "Honey, what's for
dinner?" No
response.
He moves to within 30 feet. "Honey,
what's for dinner?" Still no response. Next he moves into the dining room
where he's about 20 feet from his wife ... "Honey, what's for dinner?
Again, no response.
He walks to the kitchen door, about 10 feet, and asks ..."Honey, what's for
dinner? No response. He walks into the kitchen and stands right
behind her ..."Honey, what's for dinner?"
"Earl, for the 5th. time, CHICKEN!"
