Wednesday August 08, 2007 Picture Of The Day
|
I was reading through an old Smithsonian magazine last night, and in the middle I found a large multi-page advertisment for a new magazine called GEO. |
One of the pictures they included was the one above, which I've poorly scanned in (staple and all).
WARNING: this picture is the Full Monty. If you are offended by this sort of thing or haven't taken your heart pills yet, don't look at it. As this appeared as the centerfold in the Smithsonian, it's probably not going to offend, but I just thought I better get that warning in.
It's just crying out to be one of those competitions where you have to supply the caption. If you want to comment, keep 'em clean!
If there are any worldly folks out there who can tell me what they are really doing, I'd very much like to know.

So when did Evel Knievel say he was getting here?

I can't think of a caption that would in any way "catch the spirit" of the image. However, these guys immediately became my new heroes, and I'm prepared to do serious sacrifices to acquire a good copy of this image. Thanks for bringing it up from the dark vaults of journalism/advertisement history!

This looks like a group of Australian aborigines that are waiting for a ceremony to begin. You might want to check with someone who has a set of the National Geographic DVDs to see if it came from the Nat.Geo. magazine.
