The best image I have ever found

Sometimes you find something in life that is so strange, and
wonderful you must share it.   The following image haunts me.
I found it on the FARK.com, FARK is basically a giant
message board where people post mostly rude and snide comments
about current event stories etc.  Often people use images to punctuate
points, ie LOLcats, or pictures depicting someone Failing.
This image was posted with no explaination on a topic that had
nothing to do with the contents of the image.  There were no
responses to queries about the picture, evidently the person who
posted it felt the image speaks for it self.  The only clue is the name
of the file "saturday night.jpg"  I saw it, and decided to save it for later
examination. The colors, style of clothes, as well as the old style beer
can make me think it was taken in the 70's.  Behold:



"The Image", as it will be referred to from now on, sparks many questions.
-Where was it taken?
-When was it taken?
-Why is there a makeshift bar?

-Why does no one seem concerned about the eldery lady who is puking?
I mean they must know she is sick, someone provided her with a trash can
to puke in.

-Is the sick lady planning on drinking more? It looks like it, notice the beer can to
head stance. Does she think that will make her feel better?  

-Did the young man provide the elder woman with a beer, perhaps saying;
"Here, this will make you feel better."
-Was it a party, if so what were they celebrating?
-What has caused this woman to look back with that surprised/angry look?

-What is this guy's story?

-What is up with the old lady's arm?  Her wrist looks normal, but above that
it looks like plastic or wooden painted flesh colored, is she a cyborg? 

How can anybody not look at this picture and say "what the fuck is thist?"
If anyone has any theories of their own, I would very much like to hear them.

That is one of the most amazing pictures i've ever seen. The photographer should be given an award, and the picture put in the Smithsonian archives. That "dude" looks like he may be the evil Donkey Kong champion from that King of Kong movie. Maybe it's his celebration party after becoming world champion of Space Wars.

Great point, I will submit it to the Smithsonian. I am also thinking of having someone paint a mural of it in my bedroom, so it will feel like I am there.
That guy in the King of Kong movie is the worst person in the world.

Man, if i had a mural of that in my bedroom i would feel like my only two choices were the same as if i was a Morrocan hide tanner. Either kill myself quickly, or take my chances trying to survive in the desert as a nomad.
