A couple arrived at the maternity hospital to have their baby delivered. The wife's contractions were quite severe and she was obviously in a great deal of distress.
"You might be interested in this brand new medical treatment," the attending physician told them. "It transfers brain waves from mother to father, allowing him to take on a percentage of the labor pain. The delivery won't be nearly so trying that way."
"Bring it on, doc," said the husband. "I can take it."
So the doctor set the dial at ten percent, the most he figured any man would be able to tolerate.
"How is that?" he asked.
"Just fine," came the unexpected reply. "It doesn't bother me at all."
So the physician dialed up the setting to 20 percent to see if dad could stand it.
"Don't feel a thing!" dad observed chipperly. "Keep it coming !"
The doctor was amazed at the man's stamina. He adjusted the settings to 50 percent, but the husband still failed to complain about any pain. He finally cranked up the machine to a full 100 percent. After 2 hours, the woman completed an absolutely pain-free delivery and her husband never protested in the slightest about any discomfort.
Next day, the neighborhood mailman was discovered dead.
