Cheers!
FOUND by Ashley in Jackson, Tennessee
Somebody at work found this a year or so ago while mowing next to a busy highway in town. It has been propped up on a shelf since then, and every time I see it, I get the giggles. I think this is my favorite photo of all time!! She looks like she's having a helluva good time, and the lady in the bottom right looks like she already did. I am keeping this above my visor in my car. I am not returning this to work, either.

To steal someone else's find leads to Double Indemnity on your karma...and not in a positive way.

Is that Four Roses?
Given the amount of calories in alcohol, I think we can see how she got to that size...I just hope she doesn't fall over dead drunk because if she does Ms Smiley is in danger.

I thought the lady in the pink was singing into a microphone, until I read the comments and looked closely. And the lady in the right corner bears a striking resemblance to "the Grinch Who Stole Christmas".

Still, it looks like they were enjoying themselves at that moment.

I think this was a scene at the no-stink ghetto booty party. Look, no sheep's ass 'fros. I can't see if the hair length has met the admissions standards.

lmao @ R in k-a-dink...i see the resemblence also! The lady drinking looks like she's wearing wither a smock they put on your when you are getting a haircut or a red shower curtain liner with arm holes cut out.

nd besides," she added, hardly slurring her words at all, "I ain't never had no valentine, ain't no one ever been my valentine, and ain't no one ever gonna be my valentine. Ever. Perio

Looks like Crown Royal to me.
It also looks more like a wedding, just judging by the absence of RED in the decorations. (which is more than made up for by her .. um.. outfit.)

And Ashley from Jackson, TN, Baby Basil's ominous threats aside, I LOVE the rebellious little finish to your Finder's Blurb, and I thank you for swiping the photo and sharing it with the world. This whiskey sluggin' Mama needed a much wider audience than she ever could have gotten at your place of work.

Mmmmm yummy: Crown Royal, pineapple juice, Apple Pucker. Shaken, not stirred. Deeelish.

@ Bored in the Clubhouse - I think it's Crown Royal, too. Is that a Washington Apple that you're describing. Had many a night chugging those (although none as obviously glamorous as this.)

She looks like she's praising Jesus while taking a shot of Crown Royal.

Actually, Bored in your cubicle, the Washington Apple's made with cranberry juice. This one's the Golden Delicious. Sounds like a great cure for our collective terminal boredom!

Does not look like Crown Royal, something more like Courvoisier.

That's the same wall as in yesterday's Cocktails and Cigs picture. The basement cleans up nice.

I am late today in responding, but I thought it was pancake syrup, too.
Or sorghum...

Some pictures are just damn funny! This is one. I printed it out and left copies for my coworkers with little comments that start out with "Your momma is so fat..."

Daaaang. There are some RACIST comments here. Looks like a perfectly fine party for anyone who knows how to let loose. By the way, she may not speak in ebonics, she certainly looks like someone I'd like to hang out with, and just because it's a fairly rustic setting does not mean that she's not a happy person.

Anyway, the bottle looks like either Crown Royal or a liqueur bottle. NOT a liquer bottle. Different things. Anyway, yeah. Shame on all y'all.

There is a marked difference between "liquor" and "liqueur." In taste and spelling, though not necessarily alcohol content.

Isn't this from the office party?

This is Ashley from Jackson, TN. I posted this find. I guess I forgot to write in the description that the back of the photo was dated Feb. 17, 2005, so I guess it was from a Valentine's party. I am almost positive it's Crown. Replying to Basil Baby, I decided to take the photo cause it had been up on the shelf under a stack of styrofoam cups for a while. I figured if nobody at work was looking at it, I might as well post it here cause it's just too good! I guess I could make a copy to put back on the shelf, but I'm keeping the original!!

Hah! A Valentine's Party! I told you so.
+ September 26, 2009 07:17 PM +
..so they can go 'told you so'
Wow, Librarian. You win. But who knew you were such a neenering asswhole? (always harbored my suspicions, thanks for confirming.)

But why hold your Valentine's Party on the Thursday after? With that much alcohol flowing, I think I'd have chosen the Friday or Saturday before.

@vettebabe5.. In my opinion, all finds are up for grabs, and he who appreciates it most is he who most deserves it! I say, keep the original, and maybe someday a found artist will paint a rock picture of it and send it to you, then you can post it on your wall, shrine-like, for a lifetime of enjoyment. Don't laugh. It happened to me. Found magic!

This is what I call one of the best of “found” My take on this is that it must be a gospel revival that requires a shower curtain apparel. This must be what drove Kanya to the stage .
