another email from my dad, and i snorted at this one, lol.

Beware when this happen to you

A man feared his wife 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, the wife is in the kitchen cooking dinner, and he 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 the husband moves closer to the kitchen, about 30 feet from his Wife and repeats, “Honey, 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. “Honey, what’s for dinner?”

(I just love this)

“Robert, for the FIFTH time, CHICKEN!”

i’ve started a new category for my blog – “a father’s wisdom”. my dad forwards me a tonne of junk emails every day and i sift through them when i can.. some are good (lovely poems about family and babies), some are bad (“THIS IS HOW YOU GET CANCER” ??), some give me a little chuckle (LOL cats, photos of babies with wigs, random weird facts) and i hope they do the same for you!

i’m going to post EXACTLY what he’s emailed me – text, pictures.. MOVIES. i have a treasure trove of things to share with you .. starting with this one


Husband says: When I get mad at you, you never fight back. How do you control your anger?
Wife says: I clean the toilet…
Husband says: How does that help?
Wife says: I use your toothbrush…
