I have "Eat at Joe's" tattooed on my pecker.

Girls always laugh at it until they see that it really reads "Eat at Joe's Restaurant and Lounge, Albuquerque, New Mexico. Dinner Specials Nightly".

Jim,

Was that lateral or circumferential?

Mart

Lateral, 36 point font.

Amen !

I have three tattoos, a small pink rosebud on my upper right arm, on the left side I have three intials and a number significant to someone very dear to me, and on my left wrist in the form of a bracelet is written in Baroque Script "By the Grace of God" a reminder of the only reason and way I have survived the life I have lived. These tattoos mean something to me, they mean nothing to anyone else, and they were never meant to.

I spend no time telling others' what to do with their bodies and their money. Bottom line, I don't care, it's not one iota of my business, period.

Maybe it's just me but I don't recall all that much wide spread popularity with tattoo's among the general public prior to the mid-1980's or so. Like many trends and styles it seems like the tattoo trend started with entertainment celebrities, then sports figures and then spread.

I've seen some tattoos that I thought were very attractive but even more I consider as mediocre to poorly done "doodling". I remember one ex-con on parole who was inking local young folks on the cheap with his home made prison version tattoo gun. No idea how throughly he sterilized his equipment between customers. He did say he was saving up to buy a real professional tattoo gun so most likely he didn't own any professional sterilization equipment yet either.

The one bit of advice I remember getting from my dad that I never tried putting to the test was to not ever get a tattoo. Dad had a relatively small red heart with "MOM" inside it on his left forearm and he always said if he had some things in his past he could to do over again he would never have a tattoo of any kind.

I have only had the desire for one Tattoo in my life...may still get it done.....never too old to be young I say! Back in my day.....guys in my line of work were heavily discouraged about having visible identifying marks....hell they didn't even want you to have distinguishing scars.

This is it.............




For those that know what it means.....no words are needed.

For those that don't, words would never convey the spirit.........

And the folks showing up for welfare with fresh "ink" should be denied!

I love going to Wal-Mart and when a completly tat'ed person is strutting their stuff I pont and yell:
" Look! The Circus must be in town!"

If that ain't judging a group of folks, I don't know what is.

reading this thread gave me an idea. Just might get a tat of my X giving me a knobjob located where she is sure to see it.

Words for the wise... If your wife has tattoos, do not post pics of them on the Campfire and ask the group, "What do you think of my wife's new tattoos..?"

I guarantee you will get your feelers hurt

My youngest daughter used to think that stuff was all great. That is until she started her own business. One day while I was there one of her girl friends she had worked with stopped by. I just sat there and listened. Her friend was looking for work. My daughter had been looking for another employee. But she didn't have a job.

I ask after she left I thought you were looking for another employee. She said Dad she would scare the hell out of my customers. It just takes some people a little longer to wakeup than others. This was when she was 20.

They'll look just as unique and individualistic ...as everyone else...

I have three. Upper left arm is a dancing red devil drinking a beer and shooting a gun


Upper right arm/ shoulder. Is a call lanyard that starts draped overy shoulder curves down around my bicep/tricep and ends with individual calls just above my elbow. In tge center is the DU emblem


Third is the badge number of one of my best friends who was killed in. LOD. On my left pec.

Looking back on the mistakes I made when I was young and dumb,
getting a tatoo was not all that bad. Not when I add smoking to the list.

I always wanted to get a 100 dollar bill tattooed on my cock. That way my girlfriend had a good reason to blow my money

I've got one tat.

It's been part of me for quite some time.

I'd miss it if it was gone.

If I had stayed in the military as a career I'd likely have gotten my branch's insignia tattooed on one cheek of my butt, signifying that "your soul belongs to God, but your ass belongs to the US Army!".

Tats suck and most who have them tend to regret it on down the road.

Miss Lynn, I haven't seen you around here for so long that I thought maybe you had done left town fer good.

You doing hokay?

I spent ten years as a funeral director...all your tattoos will eventually look like blotchy stains on your skin. Of course you won't care by then, but there will be some time before you do die, that no one will have a clue what your tattoo is supposed to represent.
