What's For Dinner Darling? For The Fifth Time!

Bill feared his wife Jan wasn't  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, Jan is in the  kitchen cooking dinner, and Bill was In the den.  He says to himself, I'm about 40 feet away, let's see  what happens.  Then in a normal tone he asks,  'Honey, what's for dinner?'

No response.

So Bill moves closer to the kitchen, about 30 feet from his wife and repeats, 'Jan, 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 he gets 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. 'Jan, what's for dinner?'

"For God’s sake, Bill, for the FIFTH time, CHICKEN!"
