Some humor....maybe

OK. This is about the husband, AKA the Old Pooh, Captain Underpants, Jerry Garcia and The Old Fart.

This is a man who gained world wide fame when he burst into the computer room at home, wearing only his underpants and a towel around his neck claiming he was CAPTAIN UNDERPANTS. Ok, so maybe you had to be there, or, better yet, count yourself lucky that you weren't. He's also the man who was known as "Jerry" to my son's high school band, way back when, for the husband's resemblnce to Jerry Garcia of the Grateful Dead. I'm assuming before Garcia died and not after. In fact, during an annual car wash, some kid suggested they paint up a sign about having your car washed by Jerry Garcia and have the husband there doing the washing. The kids all claimed they would make a fortune. Either that or they just wanted to sucker someone to do all the work.

So as you can guess, little embarrasses the husband.

The other night Gunsmoke came on. I'm usually in the craft room at this time but, for some reason I was still in the living room when this came on

The husband immediately leaped to his feet, his finger cocked in a gun shape, hand hanging by his side and then whammoooooo.... he tried to out draw Matt Dillion. Aparently he does this quite often as well as singing along with every western that actually has words in its theme song.

I have to tell you, I just sat there an goggled at him. He was so focused, so mesmerised and totally oblivious of the fact that he is older than dirt and was standing there in his jammies. I think the Captain Underpants part of him has retired.

Now before you think I am heartless by poking fun at him, you have to know that I got his permission.

However I do draw the line with him hanging out with Chester or Festus or Miss Kitty who really should have told Matt, a long time ago to fish or cut bait.

I wonder where I can get him a grownup toy gun and holster set. I kid's set would never fit around his middle. I think I need to google.
