    With voice recognition technology the new ones have automatic wife rejection.

    My wife said to me just a while ago "You haven't been listening to a thing I've said, have you?"
    I thought "Thats a strange way to start a conversation."

    My wife says I never listen to a word she says - at least thats what I think she said...
    I got sick of sitting around doing nothing - so I took up meditation.

    A good laugh! That is EXACTLY how my hearing aids work. Really!

    They are 32 channel models and seem to put my wife's voice into channel 33.

    We have the "Fridgeaphone." All important messages are passed on to me while Her head is stuck in the bloody fridge. Today She is complaining of sunburn after a stint in the garden. More likely the fridge light I reckon.

    Frank feared his wife Peg 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 talked to the family Doctor to discuss the problem.

    The Doctor told him there was 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, Frank’s 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, ‘Peg, 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. ‘Peg, what’s for dinner?’
    (I just love this)
    ‘Frank, for the FIFTH time, CHICKEN!’
    I got sick of sitting around doing nothing - so I took up meditation.
