I don't have mine because they're trendy. I got mine because they mean something important to me.

Excuse me for a minute, but is it some Kindergarden holiday that I'm not aware of?

Other...one, but not necessarily done.

I've had mine for...egads.....17 years now...do to being kept out of the sun, use of a decent moisturizer and it's location (ankle/outer leg) it doesn't look like I've had it anywhere near that long!)

I'll get another one if I ever feel as sure about something as I was when I got my first.

How about I am still working on the art for #1, and that's probably all I will get.

I wanted it on my 40th birthday but it was on a Tuesday and we were staying in Key West for the remainder of the week in a very private cottage with a very private pool. They told me that I really shouldn't get back into the pool for the remainder of the week. No way that was going to happen. So I made an appointment and went on our way to the airport on Saturday. Bad idea. The flight was delayed, rerouted, etc. and sitting on that tattoo for all those hours didn't feel so hot!! But, alas, that was a few years and a few trips to Key West ago. The tattoo is still as beautiful as the day I got it and I wouldn't trade it for the world. Get another one?!?! I'm not so sure. Although we have become bikers since then!! 8)
Great story and very cool BN name :D

Aha! Then you admit that tattoos are actually good.
If easy is always good and women with tattoos are easy then women with tattoos are good. This negates your previous claim that only bad people get tattoos which by association counters the "tattoos are bad" principle.
Ipso facto .... tattoos are GOOD! :P

Cubbie's looking for a smokin' hot senorita with a Cubs tatto on her BLANK :o :P :pirate:

Holy crap .... I can't believe this thread got resurrected after biting the dust back in October.

And since then I've gotten 2 more tattoos ..... a tiki on my left forearm and a dragorpion (half dragon/half scorpion) on my inner right forearm. And it's just a question of "when" not "if" for the next one. As the Rev. Mike told me when he did the first one, "they don't call them tat-ones".
