Subject: Peaking of tattoos.........
How many do you have and what are they? I'll start.
I have nine.
1. The PowerPuff Girls on my right calf. They are playing in their band and my daughters name is on the drums.
2. A flaming skull guitar on my leftforearm
3. A USMC Skull with a DI campaign cover on my left bicep
4. A Jolly Roger Skull and Crossbones flag on my left shoulder
5. "Black Sabbath" with a black thorned rose on my right forearm
6. "Motorhead" and their album cover from the "March of Die" album on my right bicep.
7. W.A.S.P.'s spinning sawblade and lightning bolt logo on my right shoulder.
8. Marilyn Monroe's face on my left chest.
9. A weeping Geisha on my right chest.
Every one means something and has it's own story.
Any one else??

I'd like to hear these stories, Floyd :)
I was thinking I'd get a tattoo when I can get more buff...I can't justify being scrawny (not super thin, just scrawny) and having a tattoo...maybe it's just me. I'd like to get the Green Lantern symbol on one arm with a wreath of GL rings encircling the bicep, and a similar tattoo on the other arm with the Flash symbol. I'm a big comic book fan ;D
My arms would be the only place I'd put a tattoo...I don't think I'd like them anywhere else.
Subject: Re: Peaking of tattoos.........
oooh! I love Tats! :D
I have the following:
A daisy chain around my right bicep
A Sun on my outer left bicep
A psychedelic inspired Butterfly on the outside of my right leg
And a little monkey on my back (and yes, I got this waaaay before ever knowing TB) ::) :P
I would like to get something Tribal (but feminine) across my lower back next :D Or maybe something H.R. Giger inspired :o
Subject: Re: Peaking of tattoos.........
Comedy/Tragedy masks (ala Theatre of Pain) on my left bicep and Wile E. Coyote on my right bicep.
Subject: Re: Peaking of tattoos.........
I have two...
One of the outside of my left ankle with purple/blue irises and a butterfly. Lester picked out the pattern for me!!
The other one is on the inside of my right ankle. It's a heart with a man in the moon in it. This is the one that matches Southernspitfire's. That was a wild night!!
I want another one but I can't decide where or what.
Subject: Re: Peaking of tattoos.........
I have 2...
One is an eighth note on my left arm...
The second is on my right arm...it is the superman diamond/Slippery When Wet skid marks like on my avatar with a 5 point purple star behind it and the letters F A I T H in the points of the star...it's all about Jovi!!!

Oh yeah...what a nite that was!! ;D
Yuppers...I have the exact same one goldie mentioned before, plus I have a magnolia on my outside right ankle, that is my fave..and yes it has a deep meaning behind it.
I do plan on another one, but where and what is a secret for now...only my sis and her Lester know besides one other person...and I know he aint talking ;)
Subject: Re: Peaking of tattoos.........
I have a green dragon on my right bicep!
The design came from the cover of a tolkien book I saw once.
I've had it for years!
Subject: Re: Peaking of tattoos.........
I've always wanted one and last year i finally found the picture I wanted but so far I'm just too chicken,it's all about pain................
Subject: Re: Peaking of tattoos.........
One on my right ankle: Heart with ivy around it.
Subject: Re: Peaking of tattoos.........
I am planning to get a tat. On my back just under my neck, I am going to get a small fairy. Now if I can just brave the needle... ::)

Oh come on! It's not THAT bad! I mean you have to think.....most people that get a tat, always go back for more! But I warn you, they are super addictive! :D

That is what I hear, that they are addicting. I want more than one....I would also like to have the Horned Moon placed on my hip. ;)
Subject: Re: Peaking of tattoos.........
Right now, I just have a musical note on a partial scale, with a glimmer of light shining off the ball on my right Bicep. And for some reason it's REALLY fading. Gonna have to get it redone. I want a second one on my left bicep, but can't decide what I want to get. And SOMEONE around my house won't let me do it and it's not worth the fight.
Subject: Re: Peaking of tattoos.........
I don't have one but I want one very much.
I have some designs picked out...I just have to decide which one is most important.
The only thing stopping me is the expense...and finding a clean, properly licensed place to get it. Tattoo parlors had been illegal in my state until just recently, and I would have had to figure in traveling expeses and an overnight hotel stay into the price.
I belive they are legal now...but there don't seem to be any places rushing to open up...but body-piercing studios are opening on every corner.
That's not exactly my cup of tea.....

When I was living in Boston, some friends of mine traveled up to Salem, NH for a guy named Dan Carroll who runs "Masterpiece Tattoo". He is excellent! He has had several pieces of work featured in Skin Art Magazine & Tattoo Magazine.
The best advice I have ever gotten and I would give to others is to only go to someone who is reputable & you have seen their work either in Magazines, Books or on other people. I throughly checked out each artist I went to & did my homework & checked the Better Business Bureau as well.
Good luck! :)
Subject: Re: Peaking of tattoos.........
I might get two... or three later on life. The price will be restrictive for one since I want to emblaze a large dragon on my chest and maybe, just maybe, have a Zen-like scripture to go with it (I'm still scanning through Yukio Mishima's books to see what kind of line I would use). I also like the Death In June logos. I might do the white hand-with-whip over a black background (minus the "6") on my left arm. I haven't thought much about the third one - maybe a blue star on my upper back on my left side/shoulder blade.
Maybe... maybe not. This will be later on in life and I'd have given this some more thought :)

Guys with musical notes on their biceps....that melts my butter! ;) As for the left bicep, Da Lep insignia would rock! :)

Make it three now....I just got back from getting my third one, it's a vine around my right ankle with flowers on it!! It is very cool! Lester and SS went with me!
Subject: Re: Peaking of tattoos.........
I have no tattoos, or piercings except my ears (almost grown over) but I really would like to get a tat. However, a nose ring is what I plan on getting this summer. 8)
Edited to fix typo. Not that I can type. ;)

if you get your nose pierced, please don't bend staples into nose rings and put them in your nose...it doesn't work very well. (not that i tried this or anything...) ;)

One tattoo.Right shoulder,as the artist of the original painting called it "Evening Fall of Day"(William Rimmer)Its supposed to be Apollo rising from the earth as the sun sets.
AKA....the Swan Song label:)
All kinds of people have said its all kinds of things I dont even believe exist so I just laugh:)
I got that a long time ago and I still love it.
Subject: Re: Peaking of tattoos.........
I have only one tattoo. It the eye of horus w/ a crown. Black with purple shading on the iris and the outside. It's on my upper left arm. This tatoo although I love it scares the CRAP out of me. Whenever something bad is about to happen it's starts itching and burning like a sunburn. Freaks me out everytime. :o
PS I'm not kidding on this one.
Subject: Re: Peaking of tattoos.........
I've heard it said that once you get a tattoo, you'll want another. I won't say I disagree with this, as I have one ... and would probably get another in a flash!
Mine is on the outside of my right ankle, and it's a purple rose with green stem piercing a fuschia-colored heart. It does have meaning -- and its own story, most definitely.
:)

8)TATTOOS ARE DEFINITELY ADDICTIVE. I GOT MY FIRST ABOUT 3 YEAR AGO AND HAVE WANTED ANOTHER ONE EVER SINCE. I HAVE A SUNFLOWER WITH A YING YANG IN THE MIDDLE AND MY LEFT ANKLE. THE NEXT TATTOO WILL HAVE MY DAUGHTERS NAME ON IT.
