So much blogging to do, so little time. Until then, entertain yourself with the pictures below. I received this during a meeting and knew after reading the first caption that I'd have to save it for later or bust out laughing inappropriately. Thanks Bobbi Jo and Brian for forwarding! If you like this one read the 70s post too- it's even better.
Those glasses came free with a purchase of Brut cologne.
Thoughtful Lance. Mirthful Lance. Two sides of a delightful coin.
Drake won Bitchin'est Senior Mullet by a landslide.
That dude wore a tie for nothing.
The Purvis family made several stops along the Oregon Trail to document their six-month journey. This photo was taken just two weeks before the dysentery took Momma to Jesus.
Wanted a shot like this for my wedding. The Mrs. said no.
It's called a leisure suit, ladies and germs, and if you didn't have one in the early 70s, you were a big fat loser. Mine was teal. I wore it with a silk floral shirt and a long necklace with a football player pendant that we all got at that year's team banquet. I was THE MAN.

She's looking for the speaker that's piping in "Muskrat Love" so she can blast it with her laser eyes.
Olan Mills is all about versatility. The simple addition of a column turns this generic plantation into Tara, where, apparently, someone opened a Hair Cuttery. (This Dorothy Hamill cut was very popular in 70s after Doro won Olympic gold. Both my sisters had the cut at different times. I did not -- although I did have a huge crush on Dorothy).
And don't miss the First Presbyterian Players as they perform "Godspell" next Wednesday night in the Fellowship Hall. Childcare will be provided. Please bring a covered dish.
This photo isn't discolored. The 70s really were that Orange
Just a typical afternoon down on the plantation. In a business suit. Y'know, for a budget meeting with the slaves.
A pose like this will get you kicked right out of the Convention.
Bobbi isn't the first waitress to fall for her manager, but her and Dale both got fired from Shoney's.
Olan Mills Backdrop #11: The Library, one of their most popular themes, as seen in this photo of the young Unabomber and his wife.
The Library might be more believable if the shelves weren't sloping downhill.
