Pickles by Brian Crane for November 03, 2016

better hem ’em up

Yours are like mine. Your belly is getting bigger and pushing the top of your pants down lower.

That’s his story, and he’s sticking to it.

Mine too, I think the fabric is moving from the waist to the legs

My pants are not longer even though I have shrunk one inch, but I think I understand those men who have a “higher waistline” as they age now.

As we age we do have a tendency to shrink a little. It is because the spine compresses, not because our legs get shorter.

Yes, yes he is. We all are the older and more infirm we get we hunch and slouch over will do that to you.

Both very true, I have shrunk 2 inches and have gained a size in shoes. And I am only 66

Yeah, my pants shrink aroiund the waist and stretch in the legs!

when you start wearing your belt above your belly, than you know you’re in trouble.

Also, nose and ears. We end up looking like trolls.

Don’t forget your ears and nose always grow too, they never stop.

I nearly tripped over my pyjama bottoms today because of how long they are.

the pharmacist always ask…“are you still at 1234 Main Street” and I usually respond, “No, the house is still there but I’m right here!”. that usually gets a laugh.
