This is a serious matter however I don't want and cards sent or sappy well wishes, I am a man after all. I had to throw away my britches so I wrote a poem. It's called;
A Ode to my Britches


I've had you for over
twenty years
I'm saddened to the
point of tears

You made my dangly bits
feel just right
You cupped my buttocks
not to loose, nor too tight

Although you were made well
beyond top notch
You finally gave up,
a hole in the crotch

I can't wear you no more
so I say bon voyage
I can't wear britches in public
if the Buick is parked outside the garage.

The End

I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

I feel your pain. I had to put a pair to rest during last trapping season. I can tell you from the recent loss that you may try to find another pair, but they will never be the same.

Had them for over 20 years? I get a new pair twice a year due to wearing them out.

When is the funeral ?? It is telling where you wore them out. ..... Have you considered taking a shower now and then instead of just scratching. They could probably have lasted another 20 then with the " workload " you put on them

An ode from your USA Carhartt britches to you Jeff.

The smell.
The smell.
You put me through hello.
It's time I go.

You rubbed right through.
Dipping your boys in the dew.
The thorns and briars.
I was not made of tires.

The wear.
The tear.
The stench down there.
The badly stained underwear.

I finally expired.
Throw me on the fire. laugh

Keith

Your poems caused my eyes to drizzle

Scuba,

Have you considered that it may have nothing to do with bathing. Maybe Catch just likes scratching himself.
