The Deaf Wife

A man went to a hearing specialist and told the doctor: "My wife is deaf."

"How deaf is she?" The doctor asked.

The man said, "I don't have the slightest idea."

The doctor said: "OK, try this. When you go home, stand at the opposite side of the room, and say 'What's for dinner?' Move up one step and ask again. Continue this until she hears you."

So the man went home, stood at the opposite side of the kitchen and asked his wife: "What's for dinner?" No answer.

He moved up. "What's for dinner?" Still no answer.

He moved up three more steps. "What's for dinner?" Still no answer.

He moved until he was standing two inches away from her and yelled: "WHAT'S' FOR DINNER???"

She looked at him and said: "Roast beef for the fourth time!"
