Father Knows Best

A man took his pregnant wife to the hospital to give birth, and the doctor
told them that he had developed an experimental machine and asked if they
would like to try it out.

He explained carefully that the machine could take some of the pain of
childbirth from the mother and give it to the biological father.
Both the husband and the wife thought this was a wonderful idea and decided
to give it a try.

The doctor set the knob on the machine at ten percent for starters,
explaining to the man that even ten percent was probably more pain than he
had ever experienced.

But the man was suprised at how litttle pain he felt and asked the doctor
to go ahead and turn it up a notch.

The doctor twisted the knob up to twenty percent and checked the husband's
blood pressure, which was fine.

Amazed, the doctor turned the knob again and increased the pain threshold
to fifty percent.

Still feeling nothing, the husband encouraged the doctor to give him ALL
the pain.

Again, dumbfounded, the doctor increased the load to one hundred percent.
After his wife had given birth, the man stood up, streched a little and
helped his wife into the car, both of them feeling fine.

When they got home, they found the mailman dead on the doorstep!
