Different Priorities

Sam and Bessie are senior citizens. Sam has always wanted an expensive pair of cowboy boots. Seeing some on sale one day, he bought a pair and wore them home. When he arrived home, he asked Bessie, "So, do you notice anything different about me?"

"What's different? It's the same shirt you wore yesterday, and the same pants. What's different?"

Frustrated, Sam went into the bathroom, undressed and came out wearing only his new boots. Again, he said, "Bessie, do you notice anything different about me?"

"What's different, Sam? It's hanging down today, it was hanging down yesterday, and will be hanging down tomorrow."

Angrily, Sam yells, "DO YOU KNOW WHY IT'S HANGING DOWN? Cause it's looking at my NEW BOOTS!"

Bessie replied, "You shoulda bought a hat!"
