Couple in their nineties are both having problems remembering things. During a checkup, the doctor tells them that they're physically okay, but they might want to start writing things down to help them remember ..
Later that night, while watching TV, the old man gets up from his chair. 'Want anything while I'm in the kitchen?' he asks.
'Will you get me a bowl of ice cream?'
'Sure..'
'Don't you think you should write it down so you can remember it?' she asks.
'No, I can remember it..'
'Well, I'd like some strawberries on top, too. Maybe you should write it down, soas not to forget it?'
He says, 'I can remember that. You want a bowl of ice cream with strawberries.'
'I'd also like whipped cream. I'm certain you'll forget that, write it down?' she asks.
Irritated, he says, 'I don't need to write it down, I can remember it! Ice cream with strawberries and whipped cream - I got it, for goodness sake!'
Then he toddles into the kitchen. After about 20 minutes, The old man returns from the kitchen and hands his wife a plate of bacon and eggs.. She stares at the plate for a moment.
'Where's my toast ?'

I've heard this one before and I still laugh out loud when I hear it. Probably because I've done this myself.

The man from the same couple went to the doctor for his annual checkup.

At the end of the checkup, the Dr. tells the man he is in good shape and does he have anything he wants to discuss.

The mans tells the Dr. that he's having a hard time as his wife is getting very hard of hearing and is there anything he could suggest to make it better.

The doctor tells the man to try to figure out the right distance to stand away from her where he hears her best. The Dr. tells him to start at 25 feet and keep moving in 5 feet at a time, til he gets to a distance at which he can her her best.

So the man goes home and trys it. She's in the kitchen cooking so he stands 25 feet away from her and asks, "Honey, What's for dinner?"

Getting no reply, he moves in 5 feet and asks the question and still no response.

He keeps repeating this action til he's at 5 feet.

Again he asks, "Honey, What's for dinner?"

This time he hears her say,
