I'm not a swinger, I need my briefs.

Agree with that one. 

Funny along that line ya might get a laugh about, ya all know I fit about have way tween a city boy and a country boy, have road some, but not much.  Well a while back we had a nice Chyenne half seat down here rather than tack.  T'was durin' the High School Rodeo weekend, had a kid came in here, wandered around, nice kid like most of his kind, a bit less than the sharpest one like a lot of them.  He looked over the half seat, t'was nobody but me and him in the dept.  He asked about why the saddle was open in the front. ;D  Talk about an opening.

Delmonico: "Well it's ta keep the cowboy from bangin' himself on the front of the saddle." ;)

Kid:  "I've never had that problem."

Delmonico:  "Well some of us do." ;)

Kid looked at me and knew he'd been had, like his kind took it in stride, then I explained it to him.  Nice kid, hope he did well at the rodeo. :)

Well the one lower is normal.  Back when I worked security I worked and extra shift to help out, a guy who was a floater was 'spossed to be in at 10, got off at 1:30 when they found someone, see, Mikey was/is a hypocondiac, he couldn't make it because he went to the ER, took a showered and noticed one was hangin' lower and freaked out at headed to the ER.

I think that it's old age and the sands of time are shifting a little too fast.

Little known fact, altough the US Army did not issue Jock Straps, they were one of the most common private purchase items used by Cavalryman in the old horse Cav.  In fact the proper term from the period is Jokey Strap, since they were used a lot by them little short fellas that drove the race horses. ;D  Aslo one reason Briefs are sometimes called Jockey Shorts. ::)

It's kind of a runnin' joke among historians, and it's not on display to the public, but if one visits the Little Bighorn Battlefield and you are a serious historian, you need to make arrangements and be allowed to see Custer's Jockstrap, not the one he wore that day of course, since they say he was not stripped and mutilated, the one from that day most likely was buried with him.  The one up there is from the stuff Libby donated at a later date. ;)

A small amount of them yes, funny thing is they get real upset when they find out they ain't right.  BTW don't know if ya know it or not, but that fella from Virginny who whined about the umbrrellas ain't a member of that group, has talked about it, but never sent his money and joined. ::)  So go figger.
