17 Men, 1 Woman Erection
FOUND by Joshua Mullinax
in Atlanta, Georgia
Found near a dumpster on 9th Street next to the studio I work at. The photograph was found along with a 1983 University of Missouri Savitar yearbook and a small baseball trophy engraved "Beverdale Intermediate Champs-1970".

What are they afraid is going to drop on their heads? And will those green hard hats protect them?
wherever there is a beverdale there is also an erection.
A better title would have been "One woman, 17 erections" Haha!
*Gulp*... NOT that I agree with the picture, but the Origins of "Panty Crickets" and such a LIVELY discussion -- well
Anti Fourth of July (from the book by the same name?) has to be mentioned today.
For the brave and the long-reading:

Don't hate me! Oh, okay - you can!
Ahahaha!! This FIND is hilarious! The TITLE is the best, though!
@ DARKSHINES- You hit that TITLE spot on!! And the **BEVERdale** Intermediate Champs?? Ahahaha!! Champs at what? Eating **BEVER**? LOL!
I'll be laughing and smiling to myself all day 'cause of this!!
MY little secret!!
BTW, the look on the woman's face says it all!! She got *FACED* all right!!!!!
Ahaha!
the guy on the far right knows just how boring events like these are; he's sufficiently trained himself to fall asleep standing up at ribbon-cuttings, first-spades-in-the-earth, and beam erections.
@ LARS- BAHAHAHA!!!!
It's a picture like this that makes me wish belted lavender pantsuits were back in.
So classic. So timeless. Why aren't they currently featured on any fashion runway?
i like mr. riskky bussniess at the back far right who is going without protection... lady in lavender has got it going on!
even todays AA models are wearing lavender... and weird orange granny-shoes.
You just know that, since this photo is from the 70s, that building wound up looking like crap.
Also, Holly the Homemaker needs to lay off the methamphetamines.
What are the two middle guys looking at?
Funny picture.
Looks like the guy with the striped tie under the flag is faking protection, with a baseball cap instead of a hard hat. The bored one on the far right would rather be sk8ting.
And look what their college education got them!
@ MTK- Grow up...I'm having some fun here! That's what WE do on these posts!! Doncha' know??!!
BTW, you need to lay off the **opiates**.
BADDA-BING!!
@Mtk if you think Holly has a "drug" you've obviously never met me...check out: "Chunky Chick" find # 1468 and the "This Explains Everything" find # 3669, to see what a few mushrooms can do....:0
Meant to say Drug problem, above.

(no connection, whatsoever)
I just don't know what to say to that, Sammy. I don't know what to do right now, either. It's a choice between watching fireworks from the deck or watching the Twilight Zone marathon on TV. No connection whatsoever.
I love the guys on the right that are obviously actual construction workers. I'll bet they were making fun of the suits at the very moment this picture was taken.
Also, what happened here in the comment space? Who spiked everybody's drink today?
Oh. I know, it's the heady feeling of independence. Yeah, that must be it.
For the first time in my life, I hate 4th of July fireworks because my 12 year old daughter complained from the time we left the house until the time we walked back in the door. I really, really, really, want a McRib. No connection what..so..ever.
Three Men in a Boat (To Say Nothing of the Dog)! OMG!! Jerome K Jerome....really funny book!
How random that you should mention it.
@Clover: fireworks was canceled here, so Twilight Zone would have to be my choice (unless there were reruns of MASH)
Fooch, why were the fireworks cancelled?
I can understand throwing away a college or HS yearbook, and certainly this photo...but a trophy? Even "Intermediate Champs"--which sounds kind of middle school. I've never but once been given any kind of award, which unfortunately got lost in a move, but to throw away public recognition...no way! Probably because I seldom get any. Recognition, that is.
*sigh* Never mind....**I** know I'm excellent.
If it makes you feel any better, baby basil, most trophies and ribbons are not really all that meaningful. And they take up way too much room on a shelf. And they have to be dusted. I suppose that's a minority opinion.
And yes, you are excellent. Without basil, there would be no pesto!
Thank you, belle Clover. You made my day.
@ Clover: high fire danger and the place where it is usually held is now the 'staging' place for the million and a half fire trucks.
Can you guess where I live?
@ SMALLBEAR- You ARE the best! Thanks a *TON* (of 'shrooms!) for your support!!!
I'm gonna guess that the guys in the middle are looking up at the crane operator. Maybe he's doing something like.. squirting them with a water gun.. or threatening to drop water balloons on them.. that's what the World Famous A. Barker was always up to in Seattle.
Although those wide ties place this picture in the '70's.. Did they have tower cranes then?
It looks like the guy in the very center has his thumb up, but if it were his pointer finger up and "twirling," it would mean "boom up" or start lifting the beam. Of course the crane operater would never do such a thing with all those people in the way. (those hardhats don't offer any protection whatsoever when it comes to giant loads being boomed overhead. Decorative purposes only.)
Also, it looks like the older gent under the flag (the one with the blue striped tie) is not wearing a hardhat, but rather a baseball cap! Or is that just a trick of the angles? Come to that, it looks like Mr. Thumbs Up isn't wearing a hardhat, either. That hat looks like it's just hovering above his noggin- or being worn by someone DIRECTLY behind him. (do I see the shoulders of another suit back there?)
Oh. And: @ Fooch.. be careful of the little tidbits you drop. Some people seem to be collecting them up for future use. (for ill or good? remains to be seen.)
@Holly Your welcome!
i love this picture. i think she's so cute.
