A guy I used to hang out with some in Austin went to Japan in the 80's and to one of those tattoo guys who do the Yakuza tattoos and got this done, years before people here were commonly getting back tattoos and stuff.  I think it still stands up as one of the best.

You guys like horror stories, so here is one related to an article I read a couple of days ago off a link on Yahoo's home page. It concerns the escalating spread of Hepatitis C (a potentially fatal liver disease) in the USA, courtesy of your local tattoo parlor. It is rather alarming.

Here is an article that gives the facts without being too sensationalistic.

The article I read also explained that H-C can lay dormant for years, the effects showing up many years later, and judging from the escalating nimbers, it is feared alot of people have it and don't even know it. With the surprising number of people I know (like almost half) that have recently gotten or added more 'tats and piercings to their body (including my 50-year-old boss lady), I guess the warning is very timely. I know Pam Anderson has been diagnosed with hepititis C, courtesy of her tattoo parlor and Tommy Lee. Scary scary stuff.

Most are awesome worls of art but I still worry e.g. for the guy with the actual skull-face.... he'll possibly be eighty one day .... call me an old fart but I just .... worry .... for him. Lots of cool ideas eventually face the light of day, metaphorically speaking ....
