    Anyway, check out this site. This is where I go to look at peoples' "art galleries."

    I've always been my own man and never really listened to what others had to say (had a friend once try and convince me my eyebrow would look good pierced, no thank you).

    That website makes me want to cry, those poor peoples bodies, hopefully there is some very deep meaning to those tattoos. (I'm not judging, to each is own)

    Actually, I wouldn't be surprised if at least half of them were due to lost bets... And a quarter of them were people trippin' on SOMETHING...

    There's actually some really, really good ones in there -- but they're rare.

    I like the old line, "The only people who seem to care about tattoos are people who don't have any."

    Mine do all have deep spiritual meaning for me.

    I have two, and both have meaning. Getting inked for something that doesn't have lasting meaning for you is a mistake, in my own opinion.

    However, if I had roots in that part of the world (U.K. and Scotland, specifically) that one would be a contender, it is a very cool design.
    I wish I believed in reincarnation. Where's Charles Martel when you need him?

    This gave me an idea for my own design. Here is what I came up with given my limited Photochop skills. I don't know how well it would translate to a tattoo, though.



    Due credit:

    The outline of the lion comes from Wikipedia and the tartan is County Clare from House of Edgar. My family migrated to the States from Shannon Ireland in the mid 17th century.
