No More Labor Pains

A married couple went to the hospital to have their baby delivered. Upon
arrival the doctor said that he had invented a machine that would transfer a
portion of the labor pain to the father. He asked if they were willing to try it
out. They were both very much in favor of it. The doctor set the knob at 10% for
starters, explaining that even 10% was probably more pain than the father had
ever experienced before. But as the labor progressed, the husband felt fine, so
he asked the doctor to bump the machine up a notch. The doctor then adjusted the
machine to 20%. The doctor checked the husband's blood pressure and pulse and
was amazed at how well he was doing. At 50% the husband was still holding up
fine, since this was obviously helping out his wife he encouraged the doctor to
transfer all of the pain.
The wife delivered a healthy baby with virtually no pain. She and her husband
were absolutely thrilled. Everything was great until they got home and found the
mailman dead on their porch.
