HELP!...My husband is listening to Rush Limbaugh!
My hubby is very hard of hearing and some voices get through to him better than others...One that gets through easily is big mouth Rush...Right now my husband is in the front porch with his radio program on, not because he agrees with him but because he can hear him easily...(He hates wearing his hearing aid.)...I have to turn my TV up loud enough to drown him out....This is just a rant that I had to get off my chest...:cry:

1. I'm SO sorry!
Tell your husband to wear his darn hearing aid so you don't have to have a heartache.

2. I feel your pain.
That's one we haven't heard before, though.

6. it carries well..
though the show is predominantly sports, but he touches on a variety of subjects (including the recall). His regular callers and emailers also add to the show. It can be quite hilarious at times.

11. Technology can save you
Go down to your favorite electronics store (Best Buy, Circuit City, Radio Shack) and explain your problem. (You can leave out the part about Rush, incase the sales clerk is a freeper). You should be able to get wireless headphones so that he can set the volume without disturbing you.

12. I am SO sorry, glarius!
About the only advantage I see to being deaf is precisely that I CAN'T hear the vulgar pigboy!

Does he like to read? You could get him Al Franken's book (or any other liberal publication) to fairly balance this sad aberration.

14. Remember, it's far more important to consult your TAX attorney PRIOR
to contacting your DIVORCE attorney.
