Doctor 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!"
