A concerned husband went to a doctor to talk
about his wife. He says to the doctor, "Doctor, I think my
wife is deaf because she never hears me the first time and
always asks me to repeat things." "Well," the doctor
replied, "go home and tonight stand about 15 feet from her
and say something to her. If she doesn't reply move about 5
feet close and say it again. Keep doing this so that we'll
get an idea about the severity of her
deafness".
Sure enough, the husband goes home and does exactly as
instructed. He starts off about 15 feet from his wife in the
kitchen as she is chopping some vegetables and says, "Honey,
what's for dinner?" He hears no response. He moves about 5
feet closer and asks again. No reply. He moves 5 feet
closer. Still no reply. He gets fed up and moves right
behind her, about
an inch away, and asks again, "Honey, what's for dinner?"
She replies, "For the fourth time, vegetable stew!" |
