New Labor Pain Machine

A couple went to the hospital to have their baby
delivered. Upon arrival, the doctor said that they had a new machine
that
would transfer by kinetic energy a portion of the mother's 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 initially set the pain-transfer level to 10
percent, saying that was probably more pain than the father had ever
experienced before.
But as the labor progressed, the husband felt fine and asked the
doctor to go ahead and kick it up a notch. The doctor then adjusted
the machine to 20 percent pain transfer. The husband was still feeling
fine.

The doctor checked the husband's blood pressure and was amazed
at how well he was doing. At this point they decided to try for 50
percent. The husband
continued to feel quite well. Since the pain transfer was obviously
helping out the wife considerably, the husband encouraged the doctor
to transfer all the pain to him. The wife delivered a healthy baby
with virtually no pain. She and her husband were ecstatic but when
they returned home, they
found the milkman was dead on the porch.
