Yep , I do want to see it if you can post a pic.
I do not have one. But my wife said I could get one if I lost 100 lbs. TEMPTING!!!! I'd kinda like one on my bicep too or actually around it, like the barb wire one. Wait, I need two-one's gotta be Storm2k!!!

Interesting topic! I'm surrounded daily by lots of students with tatoos. Some are absolutely beautiful.......some will surely become regretful displays made in hasty decisions! My feeling is.....there's MUCH WORSE things kids can be doing!
My own daughter, upon reaching 18, showed me the tiny cluster of flowers she was going to have tatooed on her shoulder. It was pretty.....she was of age.....I raised my eyebrows, but treasure my relationship with her! Hours later when she returned, she stood in front of the bathroom mirror so she could see my reaction..... carefully pulled the back of her blouse up so I could see. This tatoo started midway down the center of her back........rose up to the nape of her neck........it is a beautiful unicorn horn with a jewel-encrusted handle at the top. I realized at that moment whatever my reaction was would be with her forever!
My daughter has had rheumatoid arthritis since the age of 7. Unicorns played an important part in this disease! She was hospitalized many times, and during very painful procedures, we would imagine ourselves up on "Unicorn Mountain".......she seemed to be able to just rise above the pain in this manner. A unicorn horn resting on her spine felt like added strength to her. The tatoo is beautifully done in black, grey, and white. Actually......I was not upset. She is now 25 and still feeling the challenges of this disease.
I have thought about getting a tatoo myself! (yup, my vote is in there!) My first born son lived only a few hours........someday I would like to get a tiny bouquet over my heart........a single flower representing the birth month of my 2 children, and a flower for my firstborn.............p

I chose "no thanks". Used to work for 6 ENT Surgeons. 2 specialized in Plastic surgery. Occasionally a patient would come in for tatoo removal - a very painful, tedious process. After each patient would leave the doc would invariably advise us all - and that is why you don't want a tatoo. Of course this was way back when they weren't that popular. But I always promised myself I'd never get one. I don't hold it against anyone getting a tatoo - it's just not for me. I'm sort of square that way - I have exactly one hole pierced in each ear lobe. I even thought the extra ear piercings years ago were a bit odd. That's grown on me now but still I wear just one set of earrings at a time. I know, I'm very boring......LOL

I always said in my younger days that it was always better to do something you wouldn't regret later and not to do something you would. I had several "piercings" back before they were cool. I never wanted a tattoo because once it was there, it was there, no matter what. Now I think you can get them lasered off, but, I don't want one now anyway. My seven ear rings (because back then two ears was queer) have gone with the wind. As the father of four, I want to set a good example, and give my children a good example to follow.
