Have a Laugh Hanging Down

ROBERT, AGE 80, ALWAYS WANTED A PAIR OF AUTHENTIC TEXAS 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?" MARGARET, AGE 75, LOOKED HIM OVER. "NOPE." FRUSTRATED, ROBERT STORMED OFF INTO THE BATHROOM, UNDRESSED AND WALKED BACK INTO THE KITCHEN COMPLETELY NAKED EXCEPT FOR THE BOOTS. AGAIN HE ASKED MARGARET, A LITTLE LOUDER THIS TIME, "NOTICE ANYTHING DIFFERENT NOW?" MARGARET LOOKED UP AND SAID IN HER BEST DEADPAN, "ROBERT, WHAT'S DIFFERENT? IT'S HANGING DOWN TODAY, IT WAS HANGING DOWN YESTERDAY, IT'LL BE HANGING DOWN AGAIN TOMORROW." FURIOUS, ROBERT YELLED, "AND DO YOU KNOW WHY IT'S HANGING DOWN, MARGARET?" "NOPE. NOT A CLUE", SHE REPLIED. "IT'S HANGING DOWN, BECAUSE IT'S LOOKING AT MY NEW BOOTS!!!!" WITHOUT MISSING A BEAT MARGARET REPLIED, "SHOULD HAVE BOUGHT A HAT, ROBERT! SHOULD HAVE BOUGHT A HAT." ....... I refer to the above anecdote, readily available in Whatsapp mass media.. Hohoho.... That's a merry and happy old couple.... Right up to their old age they are a perfect couple... Though the man and woman may think and reason differently... You'll notice both did agree verbally.... Something was hanging down daily... Only the probable reason, it did vary... The woman in the wife did notice the hanging down.. The man in the husband was livid about why it was down.... Hohoho...up or down, what a merry go round... That's why I observed they are a perfect merry couple ...... Hohoho....
