Pluggers by Rick McKee for September 24, 2024

On the other hand, I’m of the opinion that a “waist is a terrible thing to mind”;D

Good one.

Me is bearly wear belt. Elasteec with rope to ties around is the way to goes.

There’s a reason God made suspenders.

It’s the opposite of a Mercator Projection … where the Equator remains undistorted.

Pie Hole Control …

Time to learn about suspenders.

Cue Tom T Hall or Leo Kottke “Pamela Brown”:

I’m the guy who didn’t marry pretty Pamela Brown.

Educated, well-intentioned good girl in our town.

I wonder where I’d be today if she had loved me too.

Probably be driving kids to school.

And sometimes it doesn’t matter how much you suck it up, you just can’t get hooked.

Before this year, I never paid attention to belt sizes. Pick it off the rack, wrap it around, buy. I ordered two belts online last Spring. Measured an existing belt and ordered that size. When they came in they were way too big. Belt sizes are based on the middle notch not the full length. Fortunately, I have leather working tools.

Gross

Got to remember to breathe OUT, and then “suck it in” while holding your breath. But I got a new, longer, high-quality belt (bit the bullet and paid a bunch for good solid leather).

I had an uncle that didn’t wear a belt, he tied the front two belt loops together with a short piece of rope.

Plugger stopped doing pull-ups.

Big pants should include buttons for braces.

I’ve just resigned myself to buying suspenders from this point on lol

I would recommend Ozempic/Wegovy if he is not already taking that for his diabetes. And a good 30 minute walk in the evening.

I’ve always been skinny enough for my pants to be supported securely by my hip bones. Never considered a belt anything more than superfluous decoration.

just head to home depot an’ get one a them big black bungee cords with the S hooks on the ends… that should do the trick!

My tail goes all the way around me. I use it for a pillow.

I have 4 belts, all different sizes, depending on the season.
