Tattoos, just a stereotype?

Got ink done with my sons

I forgot to add that I paid for and got ink done with both of my sons. I have an artist here in Aggieland that I trust, so he does all of our ink.

SWMBO has a goddess symbol on the small of her back. It represents her taking her life back from her back injury and surgery. The tat partially covers the scar created from the 3 level fusion.

My oldest was 19 when he got his first tat and I got one with him. He is a gearhead and likes the rotary engine design, so he got a rotary rotor on his back. Symbolizes ingenuity in technology.

My youngest son was 21 when he and I got ink done. He is my "Emo kid" and got a partial cover design of a favorite band of his, "The Used, In Love and Death." It symbolizes the relationships that have broken his heart. One of the coolest tats I've seen!

Pics to follow.

Repairing your front door that someone broke into doesn't make it a new door..

Tod

Doesn't make alot of sense does it, especially since someone is just going to break it down again.

In case you were wondering

And before anyone asks, It was a halloween charity event. It was a great party with some incredible costumes. The Tooth Fairy won $100.00 gift certificate for best costume (read biggest nads). The charity did very well in no small part to the "Ontario Boys" who stayed for a beer and gave very generously. Rick.

A loved one's name? What happens when/if that loved one is no longer loved? There's a constant reminder of someone I'd like to forget about.

You forgot to mention my wedding band tattoo on my ring finger. No matter what happens with my marriage, that day will always be the day that I married her, and that day will always be a life changing event that I will remeber. Now if I happen to undergo another life changing event involving her (ie. divorce; which I pray never happens) then you can bet your @$$ I'll be getting another tattoo that concerns that as well.

I had a guy do the boat I ran in the FL Keys for 8 yrs for US Customs with a Black Hawk flying in the distant. The row of nautical flags below is seperate. They spell out the initials of my two sons. DJOKAO



The same guy did this one of the Coast Guard cutter I was on for two years patrolling in the Caribbean and on a NATO trip to Europe. Lots of memories.

I got the Patriots logo not just because they were winning but because they brought a lot of joy to me when I was at my lowest after my accident and divorce.



Ooops...just noticed when I posted that the Pats logo is not shown. Anyway, it's below the cutter.

Got three tats and too many scars to count. Wouldn't trade them for anything.

I personally find tattoos (and peircings) disgusting. If someone else wants them then that is fine with me.
That said, I did consider one tattoo. Bottom of my foot (not gonna happen), read "MADE IN U.S.A.".

Was at a convience store once and the young man working the register had big hoops stretching his earlobes. Really big, maybe 2" circles. He noticed me looking at them, he sighed and asked "have a problem with them?". I told him "no, my grandfather has some about twice that size". He looked shocked then kind of disgusted and asked how old he was. I told him 91 years old. He though about this for a bit and just had a disgusted look. I told him "I'm kidding, he dosen't...... what are your grandkids going to think?". He then got that "whatever" look and we parted ways.

I had a kid tell me the other day, that as long as you don't streth them more than an 1/4 inch or so, they'll grow back together. I looked at him, laughed, and told him that I hadn't wore a small earing since the 8th grade, and THAT hole never closed up.. so good luck with that! He got that look of realization that his were probably going to be a little more permanent than he was thinking... but then brushed me off.. you know.. because a friend of a buddy probably told him different.

I'm waiting for the big plate in the bottom lip and the long pointed gourde that fits over the umm.. manhood.. to become a hit. As low as some wear their pants, they almost need something to cover it now. I have seen a couple police videos where kids wearing their pants like that try to run from the cops.... pretty humorous.

But as I said.. It's your body. Do with it as you wish. I just hope when the women become sweet little old ladies, they have an answer for when the grandkids see the ink and ask, "Gee, Grandma.. what biker gang were YOU in?" lol. Of course now days... Granny would probably start doing the "Cabbage Patch" dance saying, "Your Grandma used to be a freeeek.."

I will also add, that after years of working on an ambulance and a lot of times hauling nursing home people around, I'd see the old green tats on a lot of the old gentlemen's arms.. many of them done during the war years. I can honestly say under oath, that out of everyone I ever talked to, there was not a SINGLE one that ever said they were glad they'd had them. Most of them had the comments along the lines of "When I was young and dumb.."

An old man was sitting on a bench on the city bus. A young man got on the bus, walked up to the bench and sat down.

He had spiked hair all different colors, green, red, orange, blue, and yellow, and colorful tattoos all up and down his arms and neck.

The old man just stared.

The young man said, "What's the matter old man, never done anything wild in your life?"

The old man replied, "Well, back when I was in the Navy, I got really drunk once and had sex with a parrot."

"I was just wondering if you were my son."
