Transfer Machine
A husband and wife were in an emergency room waiting to deliver a baby. The doctor came in and said they had a device that would transfer some of the pain to the father. The wife said they'd try it. So, when the baby began to come the doctor hooked up the machine and transfered 25% of the pain to the father. The husband said, "I don't feel a thing!" The wife said, "This isn't as bad as last time!" So, the doctor decided to transfer 100% of the pain to the father, and the husband still didn't feel anything, why not?
