A former artillery soldier was worried about his wife’s hearing. So, during his annual physical exam he asked his doctor what to do. The doctor gave him some simple instructions. He said, "Talk to your wife in a normal voice, first at a distance and then closer. Pay special attention to when she responds to your voice."

The man went home and tried it out. He knew she would be preparing supper; so first, he called to her at the front door, "Honey, what’s for supper?" Nothing. He walked a little closer and called again in the living room. Again, nothing. He was worried and thought to himself, "Poor thing, she’s getting to be deaf as a post." Finally, he stood right behind her in the kitchen and asked, "Honey, what’s for supper?"

The wife turned around and said, "Spaghetti, for the THIRD TIME!"
