Cowboy Earl and Betty are senior citizens, well, Earl has always wanted an expensive pair of alligator cowboy boots. He sees them on sale one day, he buys a pair and wears them home, "hey Betty, y'all notice anything different about me". What's different? It's the same shirt you wore yesterday and the same pants. What's different! Frustrated, Earl goes into the bathroom undresses and comes out completely naked wearing only his new boots. "Hey Betty y'all notice anything different now?". "What's different, Earl, it's hanging down today, it was hanging down yesterday, and it'll be hanging down again tomorrow. Angry Earl yells, "y'all know why is hanging down?, 'Cause it's looking at my new rootin' tootin' boots". Betty replies, "well, then you should have bought a damn hat".
