Yeah remember you saying that in another thread! Bummer. Ah well, gotta figure stylized alphas and omegas have been popping up for a few thousand years. Just be happy you're probably ten thousand times smarter than that other dude/ouche and he doesn't have all the other tattoos/stories/knowledge.

Sarah Silverman = extra Jewish with a beard.

Yeah dude wouldn't bet they're using any stencils..

Shawn, awesome tattoo from Hooper, but I gotta say I really dig your alpha/omega. INTO IT.

Livin the dream! (Also, I just turned my computer upside down to see the tattoo a little better.)

Nothing lasts, isn't that part of the appeal of tattoos? Not a huge fan of the wedding ring tattoos, but we've been talking about each getting something after the wedding.

Thank for that, D.... In other news, this kid is incredible. From the other week's Larry David: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UsGVCdEJds

BOOM!

Have a great trip dude!

Rory, that's incredible! Your whole trip sounds pretty amazing. If you posted some photos, I would look at them..

"Yeah? Well that's just like.. your opinion, man."

I believe it's just a short film adapted from the McCarthy play (which I've not read).

NICE JOB! That is one hell of a ring!

Figured I'd make a new post about it. Tommy Lee Jones and Sam Jackson in The Sunset Limited, from a play by Cormac McCarthy. Here's the HBO site and here's the trailer below. For those with HBO, looks like it's on on Monday afternoon... I will record this. Pumped!

Tommy Lee Jones is incredible. I was about to post the famous Fugitive speech, but just remembered he did Sunset Limited with Sam Jackson for HBO. From the play by Cormac McCarthy! Looks like it's showing on Monday! (threadhijacksorry)

AHHH just finished the first season last night! THANKS A LOT D. Show's pretty epic. I like to think that Samson is actually the little dude that lives inside me.. And funny, just finished first season of Twin Peaks, too.

Also heard/read it was because the chicken and pig crates were the first thing to pop up and float after a ship went down.

Had a growing interest in bikes for a while now but never know how/where to start, and never matters anyway because I'm always dumping cash somewhere else! Sooner or later I'll make my buddy Todd teach me how to ride.. 'til then, I'll just keep ogling bikes and watching SOA..

None taken, I just wish there was a better term without the connotation that collector carries.

+ Hand-Picked: 25 Years of Bluegrass on Rounder Records. Don't know much about bluegrass, but like a god banjo. + The Gories, Complete Bandin' Sessions + William Elliott Whitmore pandora station.. lots of good stuff. (And Lucero but that's become a given.)

@LilMountain and other newcomers, check out KeithReed and Stewart's other responses on page 3 of the thread. Quoting Stewart here from another of his comments because he always seems to sum shit up in a really articulate way. It's more than simple empathy, or trying to fit into a mold. It's getting tattooed to learn, to immerse yourself in the craft, to participate in something that you not only have this frenetic drive to be a part of, but to support and absorb everything that is a part of tattooing. And yes, that goes for the social side as well. Plenty of tattooers have said that they have learned the most from getting tattooed, by watching and feeling the application ––*and you can't get that just from hovering over someone's shoulder while they tattoo someone else. You can't fake that. That's why pinky tattooers are called parasites or tourists. And that's why it's difficult to compare it to another trade, because so much gets rolled into one. It's a lot easier to understand the more tattoos you receive yourself. I won't drag out this thread anymore, no use in going around and around, I think everyone's said their peace at this point. I'd just encourage you to poke around some more on LST. And also get more tattoos.

I thought you could get the DVD on the site.. guess not. I went to a screening in LA last year and the small theater was about half full. He did a little Q+A at the end, which was pretty awesome even though most people were asking kind of inane questions. I hung around because I decided, "I will meet Ed Hardy," which I did and was probably super awkward about it. Then I saw Bob Roberts and hurried out the door..

......touche'.

Did he have a forehead tattoo?
