Hearing problems
Jack, an older gentleman woodworker, feared his wife, Becky, was getting hard of hearing.
So one day Jack called her doctor to make an appointment to have her hearing checked. The Doctor made an appointment for a hearing test in two weeks, and said that meanwhile there's a simple informal test the husband could do to give the doctor some idea of the state of her problem.
Here's what you do, said the Doctor, "Start out 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's in the living room. He thinks to himself that he is about 40 feet away. "Let's see what happens," he mutters.
Then in a normal tone he asks, ''Honey, what's for dinner?" No response. So Jack moves to the other end of the room, about 30 feet from Becky and repeats, "Honey, what's for dinner?"
Still no response.
Next he moves into the dining room where he is about 20 feet from Becky and asks, "Honey, what's for dinner?"
Again he gets no response.
So he walks up to the kitchen door, only 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?"
She replies, "For goodness sake, Jack! For the FIFTH TIME. CHICKEN!"
