A man is talking to the family doctor. "Doc, I think my wife`s going deaf."
The doctor answers, "Well, here`s something you can try on her to test her hearing. Stand some distance away from her and ask her a question. If she doesn`t answer, move a little closer and ask again. Keep repeating this until she answers. Then you`ll be able to tell just how hard of hearing she really is."
The man goes home and tries it out. He walks in the door and says, "Honey, what`s for dinner?" He doesn`t hear an answer, so he moves closer to her. "Honey, what`s for dinner?" Still no answer. He repeats this several times, until he`s standing just a few feet away from her.
Finally, she answers, "For the eleventh time, I said we`re having MEATLOAF!"
