A man is talking to the family doctor. "Doc, I think
my wife's going deaf."
The doctor answers, "Well, here's something you can
try on her to test her hearing. Stand some distance away
from her and ask her a question. If she doesn't answer,
move a little closer and ask again. Keep repeating this
until she answers. Then you'll be able to tell just how
hard of hearing she really is."
The man goes home and tries it out. He walks in the door
and says, "Honey, what's for dinner?" He doesn't
hear an answer, so he moves closer to her. "Honey,
what's for dinner?" Still no answer. He repeats this
several times, until he's standing just a few feet away
from her.
Finally, she answers, "For the eleventh time, I said
we're having MEATLOAF!"
