COWBOY BOOTS

An elderly couple, Ray and Bessie, are "Snowbirds" in Arizona. Ray has always wanted a pair of authentic cowboy boots. Seeing some on sale at Wal-Mart, he buys them and wears them home, walking proudly.

He saunters into the house and says to his wife, "Notice anything Different about me?"

Bessie looks him over and says, "Nope."

Frustrated, Ray storms off into the bathroom, undresses, and walks back into the room, completely naked except for the boots. Again he asks, a little louder this time, "Notice anything DIFFERENT NOW?"

Bessie looks up and says, "Ray, what's different? It's hanging down today, it was hanging down yesterday, it'll be hanging down again tomorrow."

Furious, Ray yells, "AND DO YOU KNOW WHY IT'S HANGING DOWN, BESSIE? IT'S HANGING DOWN BECAUSE IT'S LOOKING AT MY NEW BOOTS!"

To which Bessie replies, "Shoulda bought a hat, Ray. Shoulda bought a hat." ***
