Some distant relatives get married?
« on: April 09, 2009, 09:49:51 AM »
Wedding of the year....

Introducing the wedding party:

First, the handsome groomsmen and the fine looking groom (in red)


Red ties, black ties, no tie. Mass confusion. 'Alright, everyone . let's line up for the picture. Let's see ...... hmmm, where shall we ... oh, yes! Perfect! Everyone, please move quickly! Right over there, in front of the garage. Yes, that will be just smashing!' I guess a jacket at a wedding would just be too citified, so let's just pin these boutonniere's right on the white shirts. Bubba, put down that cigarette! And no smoking during the ceremony! I told him it's tacky to light up during the sermon. If we could have put the wedding off for two more months, the groom would have saved enough money for a pair of black shoes. I told him his tennis shoes have black trim....that's good enough.
Next, the lovely bridesmaids and the blushing bride

Not everyone can pull off such a vibrant red, but I think this group does it.

Sassy, I tell you, just sassy.

Last, the cute couple



I don't even know what to say.
I thought it was a joke at first.
If I can ever caveman drag some poor fellow into marrying me, I'm not taking pictures of it.

I don't know whether to laugh or not.

See if they are your relatives, that's not really your fault.

But if they aren't, then not only is it not your fault but shame on you for making fun of the poor creatures in the first place.


At least that's what I'll say in front of old people.

At home I'll laugh right along with you. That's funny as hell.

Seen these a couple of years ago, when they did the 'rounds' where I worked then. There were even some really hideous closeups; I don't think either of the happy couple had a healthy tooth in their heads!!
What intrigued me though, is what part of the world are they from?
Any ideas, guys?

Judging by the foliage and hills in the background, it could be Missouri, or one of the Appalachian states.

Where 'bouts?

I grew up in Altamont (nope, wrong Altamont - no Hell's Angels there) just outside of Effingham (not friggin' Turkey - Effing Ham!).

We may uh been redneks (we even had a crick on are farm).  But even we'd uh made fun of that thar weddin'.

Seriously, those people look like they're from Funkhouser...  or maybe Farina?

Greenville College, nestled right in the heart of the bustling metropolis of Greenville IL. 

I had a couple of friends from Effingham.  I once went to a friend's wedding there (not like the one in this thread. All of my friends have all of their teeth.  Well except Dean, but he has a gold tooth, so that makes him a badass instead of a hillbilly right?) and there was a 2.5 hour gap between the ceremony and the reception, and beings that the only 2 things to do in Effingham are go to mass or go to a bar, we opted for the bar.

It's curious how you stateside guys seem to recognise the area as somewhere near you or somewhere you've visited before.
I on the other hand imagined it to be Lapland (lots of sister-shagging in those cold winter months, so I hear!) as they do seem vaguely Scandinavian or Wales (what do you do when you've been thru all your ewes?) as they look plain vague.
Then again, if it didn't have those hills in the background I'd swear it was Lincolnshire.
Very small gene pool in Lincolnshire.

Let me guess - the wedding reception was at Keller's Ramada Inn* and Convention Center, right?


*Ramada Inn of the Year (Internationally) in 1986.

I worked there in 1987.  Little old lady that owned/ran the place was too cool.  Would give desk clerks the keys to her Caddy, and send them to her house to cut flowers in the garden.  She'd have them put on the tables in the restaurant...

I don't know about over there, but here, grass gets greener in certain places, and people look certain ways in certain states. Now that I think about it, it probably is weird that most any american that drives through a state can say something like " that flower doesn't grow where i'm from" and be right.
It's good to see though, that you guys have inbreeds too. haha.

I'm surprised that there are so many folks here from around Effingham. I live about 25 miles from and work in Effingham. There are some backwoods mofo's round these parts! I work with one guy that his entire family has the same speech problem? They all sound like 2 year olds talking.  :D

Crazy small world, ain't it?  My parents still live in Altamont.  I'll be back in September, but not on my bike.  :'(  Still, it'd be cool to meet a member.

Have you ever heard the Bob and Tom radio show?  They're a morning show in syndication all over.  Why do I mention them?  Even out in California, they've heard of Effingham!

Yeah I know Bob and Tom! I listen to em all the time. They can make an otherwise crappy morning pretty good after all.

Hill-folk are the best! I used to work with a hill-person named Rory, when he laughed it was the most unreal thing... it was like H-WHEEEE H-WHEEE H-WE H-WE H-WHEEEEE!!!
you'd have to hear it to cringe like I do.

I tried to listen to Bob and Tom, I even have 3 cd's, but they just aren't funny to me... not even a little.  :-\

I listen to real radio 104.1FM- If you're out of the Orlando area, use this link- it works best with Internet Explorer.
http://www.wtks.com/  and click the listen live button on the left, under the 104.1 logo.
maybe someone will like some of the 4 shows that are on there.

everything I say is pure speculation and
I have no idea what I'm talking about  ._.
