New Boots


An elderly couple, Martha and David, moved to Texas.

David always wanted a pair of authentic cowboy boots, so, seeing some on sale, he bought them and wore them home. Walking proudly, he sauntered into the kitchen and said to his wife, "Notice anything different about me?"

Martha looked him over and said, "Nope."

Frustrated, David stormed off into the bathroom, undressed and walked back into the kitchen completely naked except for the boots.

Again he asked Martha, a little louder this time, "Notice anything different NOW?"

Martha looked up and exclaimed, "David, what's different? It's hanging down today, it was hanging down yesterday and it'll be hanging down again tomorrow!"

Furious, David yelled, “AND DO YOU KNOW WHY IT'S HANGING DOWN, MARTHA?”

"Nope," she replied.

"IT'S HANGING DOWN, BECAUSE IT'S LOOKING AT MY NEW BOOTS!"

Without changing her expression, Martha replied, "Shoulda bought a hat, David ... Ya Shoulda bought a hat."
