Tattoo in Review
So, is everyone getting off to a good start in 2009? Planning more ink? Planning to go to shows? What’s up with you guys?
Last year I talked about trying to find good body-art books to read, and the stupidity that is “tattoo parties”.
I challenged people who think tattoos will sag to just try it one more time and see what happens.
I did a serious multi-part post on health issues which I hope everyone read.
I talked a bit about other people’s perceptions of tattooed people and why the Car Talk brothers are right when they say “it’s the stingy person who spends the most”.
I considered the “psychology” of tattooed people with reference to Stranger in a Strange Land.
Then there was the good and bad about TV tattoo shows and something of personal concern, tattoos and diabetes.
I considered clothing that shows off tattoos and job sites that mandate no visible ink.
The news story about the 9-year-old tattoo artist gathered a lot of comments.
I considered some frequently asked questions about new tattoos, and provided the best advice I could think of.
At the end of the year, I offered up some holiday gift suggestions (that’s a link to one post; you can click on the “holiday gift suggestions” tag to see more, if you want).
That wasn’t all, by any means.
Did you have a favorite topic? Is there something you’d like me to talk about in this new year? What are your plans?
I want to thank everyone who’s read my blog this past year and offer my sincere appreciation for your time.
