Super cool, @MGblues! I laughed at the woodchuck. Nice twist on the classic Jerry rattler.

Jesus fucking shitballs. That's amazing! What's left to do? Looks damn near complete. Actually, you could stop now and still be awesome.
And just so you know, @Genie of the West, @Deb Yarian is coming up on 35 years of professional tattooing experience, with much of that in the south (i.e. not just in Alaska). In other words, you're getting golden advice here.
That fucking tiger! Ack. Matt, Lehi, and Bryan Burk are my three favorite artists for tigers. She got a good one, for sure.
And that girl head's on you? We gotta catch up soon. I didn't know you were going back in the chair. It looks great, but you knew that.
Thanks, everybody! I took the day off and spent most of it with my wife and daughter. It involved red meat, red wine, and red velvet cake, so all in all, it was a great success.
I did something awesome yesterday:
Ed spoke at an SF museum about "tattoo culture." It wasn't promoted very well--there were only about 15 people there--but that made it cooler for me.
Then I saw Tattoo Nation a few hours later. Great day all around.
PS @Doug Hardy, I'm wearing one of your pins on my jacket. :)
