Holy Crap....I didnt know we outfitted our troops that well....i feel a strange feeling....i think,i think it might be pride.

If we had Micheal Ignatia for our prime minister you would be running around in pajamas.

I'm pretty sure I posted in this thread a while ago...but I've changed ha ha

Here's a pretty recent picture of me (in the middle) with Peter Giaquinto (old time tattooer from Queens, been tattooing since the 60s) and my good friend Rob White (tattooing for 13+ years out of Long Island, NY)

And this is me with my good friend (the guy is like a father to me, seriously) Canada's very own Sailor Jerry Swallow...tattooing for 50 years and a legend in the industry...honor to call this man one of my true friends. Ps...he always wears aloha shirts, jeans, and socks and sandals...no matter what the weather is...so we had a "dress like Jerry" day at the shop...hence the rather...loud...shirt.

You ever think of getting a tattoo Randi? I have but I'm too chicken. You strike me as the sort though =)

always said I'd never get a name tattooed on me...but I got Jerry's ha ha real large across the back of my arm just above me elbow too. People ask if it's my guy's name (nope, it's not) but jer and I used to have some fun when we'd go into the hospitals (either him for his stomach or me for my heart)...people would always ask if we were related because we both have our hands and our necks tattooed (wtf?!)
