When I was doing my brief stint in Minnesota, I was in line at a coffee shop one day in Minneapolis and in front of me I saw the record holder (at the time) for the world's most tattooed man. I can't think of his name. He was loaded with tats from his scalp to his finger tips. And polite as could be despite the rather scared demeanor of the girl working the counter. I knew it was him because I saw him on a talk show some months earlier. His wife is loaded with tattoos, too and is a professional harpist. They seemed like a sweet couple. I don't know why I know or remember these things...
There's also a woman that lives a few towns over - she's loaded with tattoos. I believe she's a record holder, too. She has a rare and painful medical condition where she's allergic to sunlight. So she found that tattooing her body allows her to withstand going in the sun, and the woman loves to run and be active. Loaded head to toe with tatts. I remember the first time I saw her, she was jogging along the side of the road and people were actually slowing down to get a look.
Anyway. I'm babbling but I'll stop. Time to get back to work...

I have photoshop, dreamweaver, illustrator, indesign, and bridge. They all came on my mac when I purchased it. I don't know how to use a single one of these programs in the least. I wish there was a way to transfer these programs over to someone else's computer that actually knew how to use them. I don't even have the cd's or dvd's that they came on because it was all pre-loaded. What a waste huh?

haha damn. Sorry Matt, it looks fake! well it does to me anyway. It's nice to have tattoos with meaning and that one obviously does but I think great design is incredibly important too, which this one is lacking.
Well, I tested a paper tattoo out on myself and photographed it. I realised my arms are way to skinny and it'd look skinny. I'm slowly but surely getting bigger as time goes on but I think as I mature I see the youth getting pointless tribal tattoos with no meaning and it's become mainstream *spit*

I've never had anything but compliments on my tatts. I dunno. I like them every single time I look at them, and I suppose that's all that matters. They're really bright so they stand out, and the only "design" was to use the font from the Crystal Method, and the Chemical Brothers respectively for a reason. I'm trying to pay tribute to how much each group has influenced my life. There's still more to come with UV reactive ink. I just have to wait until I get my finances settled out a little more.

Yeah the UV tattoos are a great idea, something I would probably get instead of a standard tattoo but I suppose by that time I wont be going clubbing. What's the point of UV tatts in your rocking chair?
This is probably the most practicle piercing I have ever seen http://thecontaminat...ced-eyeglasses/
