A married couple went to the hospital to have their baby delivered.
>>
>> Upon their arrival, the doctor said that the hospital was testing an
>> amazing new high-tech machine that would transfer a portion of the
>> mother's labor pain to the baby's father. He asked if they were
>> willing to try it out.
>>
>> Both said they were very much in favor of it.
>>
>> The doctor set the pain transfer to 10 percent for starters,
>> explaining that even 10 percent 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 then 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 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, and the husband had experienced none. She and her
>> husband were ecstatic.
>>
>> When they got home they found the UPS man dead on the porch.
