... Dead at 53 from pancreatic cancer. Might be a connection? Ya think?

OK, y'all are bashing on tats. That's cool. I'm not big on tats either, but let's not get carried away here. Tats are somehow connected to pancreatic cancer now?

let's not get carried away here. Tats are somehow connected to pancreatic cancer now?

1. Inject mystery chemicals which linger for a lifetime.
1A. Add more as years go by.
2. Wait 10, 20, 30, 40 years +
3. What could possibly go wrong?

Might get hit by a bus in the meantime. Or lightning, or have somebody drop a Twin Reverb out the 6th floor window onto me. Heart attack, rabies, malaria, all kinds of ways to go. I'll choose my risks when I can, and avoid 'em when I can. And so can anyone else. "It's a free country." Within the limits of the nanny state of course.

For the record, I enjoy seeing well-done tattoo work. And I'm sure plenty of it is done under sanitary conditions in shops that have no sleazy "side business going on." But I ain't puttin' any on me.

There's also therapeutic tattoo work. Have a read at this:

Now where can I get some of those big-ass switches... cbass & I are going to start up a chain of tat removal shops. Gotta have a proper switch to turn on that big laser bzzzzzzzt bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzt. Does that hurt? Yeh I thought it would. That's nothin'. Wait 'til you see the bill.

You guys that don't like tats on girl should probably stay far away from the Northwest. It's far more accepted here. You'll see even bank tellers and librarians sporting ink.

Now I'm not into the lower back "tramp stamp" like those in the vid Tele posted, but my wife has a tasteful little seahorse on her leg that I'm quite fond of.

Heck my local bank manager has hers - she must have got 'em @ 30+ years back - now all out of focus and shall we say - expanded . If she has a tramp stamp, I don't wanna know. There's a thought I'd like to un-think.

Then there are some funny things. Late 80's I got to work with famous rock stage tech "Pyro Pete", you know what his specialty is. Alongside his mohawk, there's a tat atop his head that says "THIS SIDE UP." By this time that mohawk might be bald as a cue ball, the message still applies.

Trust me tattoos are accepted here but not by me.just about every dumbass here has barbwire around their arm and every akank has a tramp stamp.


I'm not talking about small frog on a woman's ankle or something like that.I'm talking about entire sleeves and neck tattoos .
A girl I know got this awful tattoo that goes all the way down her arm to her hand looks awful I can't even tell what it is .but she's very proud of it cost 800 bcks.

Well, I would get a tattoo: the dragon and tiger on the arms ala "Kung Fu," but I can never remember which one goes on which arm. And I don't like pain. And I'd probably change my mind the next day. And don't get me started on enlarging my ear holes. But then most people that know me opine that it's a different orifice that is already too enlarged...

Mine's not much, but it means so much to me.

thats awesome buddy! hahaha, i hope you enjoy it and we will be needing a tone report

->back to tattoos: I WANNA SHOW AND TELL!!!

mine is quite special to me. when i was 17 i got a job with the Student Conservation Association, or SCA, in the Mojave desert outside of Barstow. Our 7 person crew would venture into the Ord Mountain Limited Use area to do conservation work to protect an extremely endangered species, the desert tortoise. we would camp out for 10 days, then have like 4 days off or something i cant remember, but all food and lodging was provided and we were paid a stipend, so i came out of the 9 month program with a couple thousand dollas!

so, since this was such a great experience for me, i wanted a memorial tattoo, and flip-flopped on what exactly i wanted.

THEN one day, toward the end of the 9 month program, it actually rained! so we all took the day off and went in our tents. i decided to do some exploring after the rain stopped and on top of a rocky decomposing granite outcropping i found this symbol. i contacted the Bureau of Land Management archaeologist and he came out and verified its age and possibly what tribe inscribed it. he didn't really know what it meant, probably some form of direction post or something. so i had the symbol tatted on my right inner wrist.

keep in mind that i had NO interest in electronics and couldn't tell you the difference between a resistor and a capacitor. years later in electronics school i found that it is the schematic symbol for a variable capacitor!! blew my mind... ancient aliens anybody??

I d show you guys my tat but its on my pecker and it has the entire declaration of independence on it.

That sounds like a really cool trip.if you had enough mescaline
Yes aliens have been visiting places of power here for thousands of years . they needed our gold to repair there damaged atmosphere . its no coincidence that civilizations that
Had gold in their area were the most technologcly advanced. I mean the gold didnt teach the Mayans advanced mathematics and presicion astrology.then there are all the links between Egyptian culture and cultures in south america and mexico and junk

There is a similar very old joke:

Charlies Bar and Grill Chattanooga Tennessee

[LeeMo]

I heard it was "Shorty's bar and grill overlooking lookout mountain Chattanooga Tennessee "

I have "Moth" on my chest. It was gonna say "Mother" but it hurt like hell and I ran away.
