Redneck Goddess-of-fertility effigy?

[naturegirl]

Found this in flood debris from a large Oklahoma lake. I'm thinking the local Redneck Yacht Club lost thier goddess effigy. What is this? About 9" tall, and has a hole in the bottom about 3/4" diameter. Maybe the top off of an umbrella? I love her. She makes me grin everytime I look at her.

Woody! you old coot! Seriously folks, I think I can sell this thing. Not plaster, too fragile. I know how to cast bronze, too expensive. I can't bring myself to even consider cold-cast resin, hate the stuff, even rednecks have standards. So I'm thinkin pewter. Is this a test of my ethics? IF this is hand-made, I couldn't be paying it a higher honor, if it's a piece of trademark mass produced merchendise, well, I guess we'll find out. How funny is this? She really does re-produce!

Cast in Porcelain as in a toilet would be in keeping with the redneck tradition. If you could turn it into urinal then it would be even more redneckier. On second thought, just about anything can be a urinal to a redneck so you wouldn't gain anything. But made out of the same stuff as a toilet would make it match more redneck stuff.

Naturegirl you are very imaginative, best of luck to you in your endeavor to reproduce your find. You should at least write up an article and submit your find to W&E treasures...you should easily win the "booby prize" for best find of the year

Woody,
Redheaded women are an adventure and test of courage for redneck men .
Not everyone is up to a Harley and fewer are up to a redhead . Life is never dull with either

 

[trish76642]

Now that is the funniest thing i've ever seen! I agree with your hubby....i'd say re-wire it and let her ta-ta's light the way!

 

[Digginnit]

dang, must be cold where she came from

 

[NGE]

I'm surprised! Nobody has seen the true use of this thang. It's the hood ornament from the Wiener Mobile...... ........NGE

Looks to me like you got an old boat wreck in the lake somewhere. The Girl is an older version of this Hawaiian bar girl. Probably did light up at one time and had a spring at the bottom with a hula skirt affixed with the staples. Hair was on top. Their was a matching Sailor figure who had a magnet in the same place for a mouth and the two would dance and kiss. I can't find any pics yet of the pair but I'm reasonably sure as to my ID.

Neat determination MD! Why not!

 

[Woodland Detectors]

WTF?

 

[woody50]

Hey Woody, if you would like to catch up with the humor of the redneck culture go to google or youtube and search for these names:
Jeff Foxworthy
Rodney Carrington
Larry the Cable Guy
Ron White
Bill Engvall
There are several more but these are probably the most famous (and funniest)
Charlie

Just great Charlie! Thanks for the names. Jeff Foxworthy just cracked me up (well ok, a little more then)... with his redneck stomp The rest were crazy too, but he just got to me!

 

[woody50]

Woody,
If you now or never had or never knew anyone that had a car motor hanging from a chain in a tree in their yard. You ain't no redneck.
Me - redneck - hell yeah. You? Hard to say.
Remember the Olympics in Atlanta? Remember they released white doves at the opening ceremony? There WERE redneck in the parking lot with shotguns.
If you've never cracked open a cold one at a funeral, you ain't no redneck.
Daryl

Well thanks BP for these tips... So that's what I have to do? OK, no problem.

 

[woody50]

Woody, "redneck" is a slang term used to describe a lower class citizen here. It used to be a derrogatory word but now there are many of us who take great pride in being rednecks. I am way to lazy to type it all out but here is a link that will give you an idea of what we are talking about.

Here is another site that will explain a LOT!
http://redneck414.tripod.com/

Neat site, but it looks just like mine in many ways!

 

[woody50]

Oh yeah, Woody, you, my friend are a redneck, not a redhead, whether you know it or not. I just have a feeling... And congrats on your 1000th posting. I saw that coming up on your bio, when I figured out you weren't in the States, glad to have helped you reach this milestone, and helped with any identity crises you might have been going through.
ng

Well thanks a lot ng, now at least I know. Still don't know what the difference is between a redneck and redhead, but after reading the above I know why now... (how do I get so mixed up?). Yea thanks for your help with the 1000, although it passed without my realizing it (redneck?).... What is an identity crises? Something like a transvestite?

 

[woody50]

Doc a redneck? Well yes. He showed up at our camp with no shoes a straw hat and Holes in his "britches" lol His wife on the other hand is a lovely Prim and proper city girl!

Hmm 4-h, I though he always dressed up like that, at least that is what he has on during his vacation(s) in Amsterdam....

 

[woody50]

Notice he said his CAMP.
Daryl

Hmmm, now you got me wondering about 4-h too...

naturegirl

Well great ng, you are thinking to get her to re-produce! Sounds like a bit of a redneck to me now that I know what it is... But honestly, that will be neat! Yes pewter or tin (as I call it) (actually tin and led) is a great material. And like you say not too expensive, but still quite easy to work with and fairly hard. Yea, keep us in mind, we might like one or two..! I am sure its handmade...

Jeeze Daryl, I finally agree with something you say! Good idea, and pretty cheap too, although you need a kiln to do it....
