A kid walked up to a guy wearing a 10-gallon hat, leather vest, leather chaps, and sneakers. The kid asked him, "Mr. Cowboy, why do you wear that big hat?" The cowboy replied, "Well, son, this big ol' hat protects me from the hot sun n' drivin' rain, and at night I puts it over much of my face when I sleeps on the range, so it protects me then, too." "Why do you wear that leather vest, Mr. Cowboy?" "The vest? Why, it also helps to keep the weather off'n me, and it has nice pockets where I stashes much of my valuables." "Well, why do you wear leather chaps?" "They protect much of my legs when I'm drivin' this here horse through mesquite n' cactus." "Say Mr. Cowboy," the kid finally asked, "Why do you wear those sneakers?" "That's so nobody'll think I'm some dang truck driver!"
