This is not, by far, the worst photo from an old knitting magazine I picked up at a holiday bazzar recently, but it is (in context with my life) the funniest.
So, in honor of (finally!) getting back to knitting last week, I wanted to scan this and put up a caption contest. I have a few (!) in mind myself, but I wanted to see if anyone else could be as bad as me.
Bonus points for guessing the year this mag came out (oops). Sorry, I don't really have any prizes (except for finding out who followed me over to my new site...and that's just a prize for me, I guess).

Yikes! What a photo! I can't tell if that smile on the woman is knowing one or just a sign of complete denial! I'm not even going to attempt a caption, but know that I definitely went to the bad place.
As far as when it was published, I wanna say this is mid-70s, owning to the feathered hair on mr. grabby... I'm gonna guess 74?
Hmm, the v-neck on the left isn't so awful.
Based on the Lacoste alligator and the length of the shorts, I'm going to say this is 1978.
My caption: Boys, Balls, and a Beard.
Denise you made me do it...I hold no responsibility for my actions
'Aha.....I always thought Philip wanted to grab Johns balls'
Alright, you asked for it:
"Dude. Are those seriously your balls?"
Incredible, I know.
Also, 1978? I was born in 70 and to me everything looks like the 70's if it doesn't look like the 80's.
BTW: Here's a few knitting blogs I've discovered lately that are pretty funny/sad. See you Friday.

Okay, gang, sorry I didn't see all your clever entries until Becky told me at crop last night that she had put one up! Not sure what's going on with my yahoo email; it used to always send me any comments posted here.
Anyway...will announce the "winner" soon. Thanks for playing!
