Just had to pass this one on..........

A man feared his wife was not hearing as well as she used to, and he thought she might need a hearing aid. Not quite sure how to approach her, he called the family doctor to discuss the problem.

The doctor told him there is a simple informal test the husband could perform to give the doctor a better idea about her hearing loss. "Here's what you do," said the doctor. "Stand 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 was in the den. He says to himself, "I'm about 40 feet away. Let's see what happens." In a normal tone he asks, "Honey, what's for dinner?"

No response.

So the husband moves closer to the kitchen, about 30 feet from his wife, and repeats, "Honey, what's for dinner?"

Still no response.

Next he moves into the dining room where he is about 20 feet from his wife and asks, "Honey, what's for dinner?"

Again, no response.

So, he walks up to the kitchen door, about 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?"


(I just love this.)

Nice one Dave mind If Itell you one on the same theme.
Cab driver picks up a elderly couple of american tourists at london airport, thinks to himself they look like a nice couple I will show them all the sights on the way to their hotel. So their driving along Cabby points out the Tower of London the old girl cups her ear and says "what he say Harry" Harry repeats Tower of london blah de blah andso it goes on Tower bridge "what he say Harry" Harry repeats it , well this goes on for about half an hour the cabby is getting really cheesed off with her. He stops the cab turns around and says "where a you from" Harry replies "Baltimore" Cabby says "I had a girl from Baltimore once, worst sex Ive ever had" the old girl cups her ear "what he say harry" harry replies "he thinks he knows you". :-)
