Congrats.
I just celebrated my 24th anniversary on December 19th.
Say hi to your wife and congrats!
You will have to make it up here for your honeymoon and we can take you around and show you all of the exotic plants here in Vancouver and in Kelowna and SSI.

That would awesome to see that part of the world, but we are headed to Arizona and Mexico. Thanks so much for the offer

If I ever get a chance to go where you live, I would love to visit

And I hope if you ever travel through this part of the country you will also stop by

Not a good picture of the wife but the only one I have right now

This was down in Arizona.

"I'm sorry" and "You're right sweetie"????
Nope you have it all wrong. What we women REALLY want to hear is, "Okay honey you can get that full sleeve tattoo done now" and "Oh YES I really DO like your headbanger music even though my BAND wants to play jazz". THOSE are the catch phrases that guarantee a happy marriage here in my house.

So that's what i have been doing wrong.

Don't mean to change the subject but since we are talking about tattoos here is a drawing i'm doing for a friend who wants to get it tattoed on him. i'm not finished yet but close.

Regards,
Jay

That's some nice flash, Jay! Your friend is lucky to have someone like you who can do an original for them. I have a full shirtback, shoulders to buttocks, almost 100% coverage. The tattoooing has taken over 3 years, and contains a mermaid (the Hajime Soyrama sharkfin tailed mermaid done in portrait style), a most excellent horned water dragon holding a large pearl, a cool rendition of a galaxy with planets, moons and stars revolving around a stylized sun that has other galaxies floating in its center, and a large butterfly-winged fairy. The whole rests on top of a tribal background of stylized spirals done in 3 shades of purple which denote deep space for the solar system, and the timeless ocean for the mermaid and water dragon. The fairy's background is almost complete and is done in blue.

I also have a phoenix on my left upper arm.

That's alright Jay

I always wanted a scorpion on one arm and a horntoad and cactus on the other. My friend does tats for a living when he is not doing other jobs. So when ever I want them he says

My wife on the other hand all ready has a few and is welcome to get more when ever she wants

Post by **Jay-Admin** » Tue Mar 07, 2006 12:05 pm

Thanks for the nice comments.

Wow! Pazuzu you have allot of ink. Sounds like you have some really cool looking designs and allot of time invested.

Aaron, I wish i had a friend who did tats. My tattoo artist closed his shop down until he finds a new location. It backwards at my house. I'm the one with tattoos and my wife has none. She does't want to get any which is fine with me.

Do you both of you watch the show Miami Ink?

Regards,
Jay

Pazuzu · Post by **Pazuzu** » Tue Mar 07, 2006 3:42 pm

I have seen Miami Ink a few times, but am not a regular watcher. The only show I watch regularly on TV is the original CSI on Spike.
I got my first tattoo in 1979 and have been tattooed on and off since then, but this large piece has been approached from the lazy way for certain. I have to have time to garden and stuff, ya know!

When I have time to sit, its for no less than 2 hours of tattooing. Otherwise I'd never get it finished before I croak. My artist is also a friend and never charges me full price, so I make certain I tip her well.
Wants see a wicked good ink site? Take a look at Last Rites Tattoo (Darkimages) Paul Booth's site.

DesertZone · Post by **DesertZone** » Tue Mar 07, 2006 4:22 pm

Jay, I haven't seen it yet, but I see lots of adds for it

It makes me want to do tattoos for a living. I am like you I draw a lot and have drawn tats for people

Post by **Jay-Admin** » Wed Mar 08, 2006 1:02 am

If we all had more time.

It would be a dream if i could be a tattoo artist. I don't get to draw as much as i would like. I'm a little rusty. I just started drawing again after about a ten year break. I'm more into computer/graphic design now.

Aaron, you should open a tat shop and then i can apprentice under you.

That would be

Regards,
Jay

DesertZone · Post by **DesertZone** » Wed Mar 08, 2006 5:59 am

I know what you mean about the time

It goes to fast.

If I was back in school I know I would be drawing more, put pencil and paper in my hands and a flat desk and make me sit for over an hour and I will be draw something

Yea...we could call our tat shop "Jungle Tats" a place where you could buy a cold hardy palm and get a tattoo at the same time

Cool idea

Congratulations on the wedding man!! Best wishes for many years of happiness.

Heres my tummy.. Ive been told its dangerous. One of my too many other "hobbies" is building AK-47 varients. I've also got my back done. I dont have a good picture of that one. Nice to hear im in good company here.. not that I didnt already know that!

Post by **Jay-Admin** » Thu Mar 09, 2006 12:09 am

Thanks for the best wishes DrKungPao

Nice to have you here on the forum

DrKungPao · Post by **DrKungPao** » Thu Mar 09, 2006 9:05 am

Thanks guys. Its comforting to know im not the only "borderline" individual out there.. (at least in regards to gardening on fringe zones.. lol)

Pazuzu · Post by **Pazuzu** » Thu Mar 09, 2006 2:11 pm

Nope you aren't the only borderline one. I'd post a photo of my back, but I have to be topless to do it, and my hubby isn't too cool with that LOL
