Do these pants keep your money from burning a hole in the pocket?

I have a pair of 20 dollar ****ies that i bought on sale. They can hold my stuff just fine. Like my coin pouch for the change I pick up off the ground. And the wire nuts and screws every electrician ends up with at the end of the day.

Ha. Can't say dic.kies. Sorry if this violates rules just wanted it to be clear that that was a brand name and not some random vulgarity. This ain't the job site. Gotta watch the naughty words.

That's the auto censor. I tried to intentionally curse once and it did the same thing to me.

You know what? I really do.
I like the cold (better than hot at least) and I LOVE the seasons. I'd move up the Adirondacks if I could.

Sure - instead you're spending more for A/C, in addition by moving South you cut your pay in 1/2 while your expenses didn't even decrease by more than 20%.

Sounds like you guys aren't interested in these pants. I swear to you these pants are the best and if you put one on you'll know what I'm talking about. Seriously

I'll stay with Carhartts myself, never had any problems with them. The flannel lined are fantastic in the colder weather and just add the insulated bibbs when it gets colder.
