    LA Ink

    Last week I was watching "LA Ink". This girl came in and said that her father was Scotish, she's visited, wants to live there...

    Well, she got her clans crest(I think thats proper term) inked on her back. I have actually slept since then, so I can't remember the name...montgomery maybe. However, the motto across the top was "garde ben" and it had a woman in a blue dress, holding a severed head(I think that was added for coolness).

    It was really cool.

    Yes...except they made the woman taller in proportion to the crest, like sticking up above the top of the circle between the words.

    Yeah one of the better crest tats I've seen done. Giving me the itch to get some more ink done.

    Yeah, she was a Montgomery...

    Damn me and my Stewart blood... crests are either a pelican, or a unicorn. Seriously lacking in the badass department when standing against a hot chick with an anchor and a severed head.

    At least your pelican is pecking it's own chest and bleeding to feed the birds below...

    Mine are:
    MacEwan: a tree stump
    Roeger: a pelican in a pond.
