Guest guest Posted May 7, 2006 Report Posted May 7, 2006 Check before complaining. 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 responseSo 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? " ;;;; " , 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 ..! __________________________________________________ Quote
