A concerned husband went to a doctor to talk about his wife. He says to thedoctor, "Doctor, I think my wife is deaf because she never hears me thefirst time and always asks me to repeat things." "Well," the doctorreplied, "go home and tonight stand about 15 feet from her and saysomething to her. If she doesnt reply move about 5 feet close and say itagain. Keep doing this so that well get an idea about the severity of herdeafness".Sure enough, the husband goes home and does exactly as instructed. Hestarts off about 15 feet from his wife in the kitchen as she is choppingsome vegetables and says, "Honey, whats for dinner?" He hears no response.He moves about 5 feet closer and asks again. No reply. He moves 5 feetcloser. Still no reply. He gets fed up and moves right behind her, aboutan inch away, and asks again, "Honey, whats for dinner?"She replies, "For the fourth time, vegetable stew!"
