Franklin Pierce had full sleeves depicting Greek mythological figures fighting dragons. He had an affinity for both Greek mythology and Asian cultures, so he let his brother-in-law, Obadiah Appleton practice his new trade. Unfortunately for Pierce, Obadiah's tattoo work was as bad as his previous career as a failed wagon builder. Pierce therefore always wore sleeves and threatened the life of anyone making a portrait if they even suggested depicting the tattoos.

I don't know if any of this is true, but I found it quite amusing.

Found this....
Tattooed U.S. Politicians - ABC News

Carrhartt is the flavor where I live, and I've got one that I wear when it's cold enough...Maybe I should check the thrift stores more!

I know a place that I can still get Pendletons for $15 to $20. I think they look great, but it is not exactly my style. Maybe I should start picking them up to ship out to LST members.

@David Flores someone who understands the properties of 100% wool could probably do a nearly invisible repair on it...
do you know any fiber artists? I know there's a ton of them in Portland.

attacked by a redneck at a greyhound station who was bugging out off of meth or pcp or someshit. that part wasnt awsome. but the fact that he couldnt connect any of his punches with me and that the cops came, found a bunch of dope on him, and emt strapped him down to a stretcher was. i couldnt make out why he wanted to fight, i think something about me not being welcome in texas or someshit.

I had my first treatment on Friday and my tattoo has faded way more than I thought it would right after the first session.
I've been reading the stories on this forum about the first session being quite painless and even though my patch test hurt like hell I thought the guy would turn it down for the full treatment seeing as my tattoo is quite big so I wasn't too worried. Well, I should have been because he kept the same settings as the patch test and boy was I in for a surprise.
There's no swelling or blisters though, it's just still quite red but it's all looking pretty good so far.

Just another way for people who don't like tattoos but want to "be tattooed" to do so , one step below white ink tattoos. Honestly I haven't heard any one speak about Blacklight tattoos in a couple of years, and usually just someone with no tattoos tagging along with a friend who is getting tattooed to ask questions about tattoos.

No, I've got a collection of random stuff from the '70s and '80s that's taking up prime real estate on about a quarter of my back. Definately some lightening 6-8 weeks after the 1st session. Anxious to see how it'll look 8 weeks after the 2nd session. I'm hoping my 5th session in Sept-Oct will have gotten it all light enough for new cover work.

i def agree pre-rollins is better. a lot better even. but bf with rollins still cranked out some great shit- damaged lp, every lp was atleast "ok", but had one or two classics songs on it- my war, loose nut, annihilate, black coffee, slip it in, etc, etc.
i hear what youre saying, but its so far from shit..

My War is one of the best albums ever.

I use the whole message board for this.

Black panther or an eightball.
Maybe have like Woodstock or cheech and Chong smoking and have the maple leaf be a pot leaf!
Canadian, eh?

i was hanging out on sidewalk patios at this pizza joint and then this bar next door and thought it was out of the ordinary that so many people were sporting some a lot of really sick traditional work. i had no clue that right next door was fucking elm street. i didnt know that some of the artists there are really talented with japanese traditional as well. got to go in and talk to them a little about what i was looking for. their prices are pretty on par too which is cool.

Question 1: Do you know Josh Homme?
Question 2: How bad do you hate Cochella on a scale of 1-10?
Question 3: Neil Young or Bob Dylan?
Welcome to LST!

ahhh i see what the bay area kids have done here..
i like the bay, so ill play too..

this guys sucks. im all for free forms of expression, but it just seems to me like people are using tattoo guns more and more like a weapon these days.

thats dope, man. theres people out there who really need this type of service who dont have any money and who go beyond just wanting better work. it also sucks that they cant find people who are offering laser at affordable prices. this skinhead dude had to plead to an organization to help him out with some butthole doctor at the hospital whos probably charging way more money than ive seen in my life.

She may technically be a "consenting adult", but at 18, 19, 22, whatever, getting your face covered with the name of some scumdum who has already disfigured AT LEAST one other Woman is just not too bright.
And why do I get the feeling that the very people who defend this shit would be the first to say how terrible it is when a scooter-Lady gets a "Property of ---" tattoo?!?!?!?!?
What can I say...if I was that girls' daddy, I'd blow the tattoer's head off.

This one didn't fall asleep, she fell in love. LOL

Can I suggest some words for you?
"I do laser removal, here's my card."
