An old man thought that his old wife had a hearing problem. He called her doctor to make an
appointment to have her hearing
checked. The Doctor said he could see her in two weeks, and meanwhile there's a simple,
informal test the husband could do to give the doctor some idea of the
dimensions of the problem.
“Here's what you do. Start about 40 feet away from her, speak in a normal
conversational tone and see if she hears you. If not, go to 30 feet, 20 feet, and so on until you get a
response.”
So that evening she's in the kitchen cooking dinner, and he's in the living room, and he says to himself, “I'm about 40 feet away...let's see what happens.”
“Honey, what's for
supper?” No
response. So he moves to the other end of the room, about 30 feet away.
“Honey, what's for
supper?” No
response. So he moves into the dining room, about 20 feet away.
“Honey, what's for
supper?” No
response. On to the kitchen door, ten feet away.
“Honey, what's for
supper?” STILL no
response. So he walks right up behind her.
“Honey, what's for supper?”
“For the fifth time, CHICKEN!
