While my opinion means nothing, that's really horrible looking :-p _________________ Ironically, Halen's one of the few people here I wouldn't worry about terrifying my friends and family.

It also hurts more when they go over a scar, Id imagine due mainly to the thicker skin.
Is it true color tattoos (even really bright ones) are easier to cover then black and white tattoos? Some one told me that a while ago when I mentioned getting one covered. _________________ I have a face, with a mustache.

| Kitten, i suspect the image you posted is not the best quality, so it's hard to judge. is it a red rose entwined with an Ankh? it looks like there's a sacred heart in the eye of the Ankh and above the red rose. do these symbols mean anything to you? |

the image is my photoshopping two images together quickly for a general idea. the heart within the eye of the ankh will not be included, and the rose is purposefully wrapping around the ankh.
the tattoo is largely symbolic for some personal events that occurred a year ago, and i've been playing with various ideas of how to commemorate it since then.
i just met my tattoo artist and have made my appointment for tomorrow afternoon. super excited that i finally get to etch such an important event onto my body. |

| I can definitely dig that, even if I find the symbolism bizarre (says the guy with an ionic column on his back). |

Oh, mercy mercy me
Oh, things ain't what they used to be
No, no
Where did all the blue sky go?
Poison is the wind that blows
From the north, east, south, and sea
Oh, mercy mercy me
Oh, things ain't what they used to be
No, no
Oil wasted on the oceans and upon our seas
Fish full of mercury
Oh, mercy mercy me
Oh, things ain't what they used to be
No, no
Radiation in the ground and in the sky
Animals and birds who live nearby are dying
Oh, mercy mercy me
Oh, things ain't what they used to be
What about this overcrowded land?
How much more abuse from man can you stand?
My sweet Lord
My sweet Lord
My sweet Lord |

Wasted all this time, searching
Brought me to my knees
Tell me this is real
Are you
What I really see
Wasted all night
Dreams no one could share
