I thought she looked familiar. I just read a biography of Wallis Warfield Simpson. Furness was David's mistress before he took up with Wallis.

Interesting biography. Though I can't say that I am surprised that her acting career didn't really work out. She can't even fake not being disgusted (or at least highly doubtful) by this beer.

I was thinking the same thing like she's wanting to say, "What? Were they out of Schlitz malt liquor?" They say it was served to her. They didn't say she liked it.

Ahhh, outfoxed by clever ad-wording again! (Raises fist to sky.)

A current favourite of clever wording is the "controlled cultivation", which means absolutely nothing.

Back-handed bitch-slap and shattering glass in 3...2....1?

"We're wasting good glasses on PBR?! Just drink out of the bottle, Yer Mookiest!"

The Viscountess then wondered what won Pabst Red Ribbon, and so forth.

That was quite interesting reading; thanks for the link.

Despite her exalted lineage and connections, I guess with a down-to-earth name like "Thelma Morgan", she was destined to swill down the PBR.

And also great-aunt of Anderson Cooper. Thanks for posting the link. She did pretty well for a beer-swilling gal named Thelma.

I'm now thinking of GV trucker's hats. Helllp....

My local Buffalo Wild Wings has PBR on draft for $1. :D

And have you seen Viscountess Furness there?

Why is the manservant (or hubby?) handing her that glass of Pabst when she already has a full glass nearby? Maybe she's handing it to him so she can get him hammered?
