IJMC Talk About Deaf

                          IJMC - Talk About Deaf

Oh, I'm just not even going to bother. I made it to work by a little 
after 7:30am...and I've been up since. It's 10:30pm now, but the system 
seems to be running right so I'm done...til tomorrow at least.    -dave

   A concerned husband went to a doctor to talk about his wife. He says to the
   doctor, "Doctor, I think my wife is deaf because she never hears me the
   first time and always asks me to repeat things." "Well," the doctor 
   replied, "go home and tonight stand about 15 feet from her and say 
   something to her. If she doesn't reply move about 5 feet close and say it
   again. Keep doing this so that we'll get an idea about the severity of her
   deafness". 

   Sure enough, the husband goes home and does exactly as instructed. He 
   starts off about 15 feet from his wife in the kitchen as she is chopping 
   some vegetables and says, "Honey, what's for dinner?" He hears no response. 
   He moves about 5 feet closer and asks again. No reply. He moves 5 feet 
   closer. Still no reply. He gets fed up and moves right behind her, about 
   an inch away, and asks again, "Honey, what's for dinner?"  

   She replies, "For the fourth time, vegetable stew!"
