Pics or it isn't true! Also, due to a clerical error, YOU have to eat your first born!

I have really been digging on Adam Guy Hays' tigers.

I dunno if you guys love kung fu movies

Yes!

A couple of my favorites are "Fist of Legend" with Jet Li and "who am I?" With Jackie Chan.

Greetings, fellow pacific northwestener!

When I step into another person's house, I wipe my feet as to not track mud around. Or, if it is their house-rule to remove their shoes, I will gladly leave them at the door. This is done out of respect.

Even if you don't think it makes sense, a person should observe the customs of the house, or risk looking like a mannerless boob and possibly get kicked out.

^I think the level of awesomeness has gone down, but people's perspective of what constitutes as awesome varies, so... each to their own.

Big news for me, sort of. I've decided to make a career change, well really going back to my initial plan: Teaching. I completed my degree in Psychology and have been working as a caseworker for almost a year now and surprise! I'm one of the many that have become disillusioned by the stressful workload and little pay-off (monetary and satisfaction-wise). Teaching doesn't pay much better, but at least I'll be doing what I enjoy. I've also started writing on the side and it's brought way more happiness to my life. Just goes to show how important it is not to doubt yourself and stop doing what you enjoy.

Back to school for me! *Excited cringe!*

That's all well and good, but what we really want to know is; what did you have for lunch?

Seriously though, that's awesome!

My nephew.. Was unable to go, and I am working 70 hour weeks until mid November. Which means we can afford a house next year (and more tattoos), but I'll have to miss the convention.

Sad panda, but I shall live vicariously through you guys until the next one :).

Make it rain (Dick's) while you are there and get a good walk up!

You want Dick's? I'm willing to negotiate. ;)

@beez , pimpin out the Dicks.

Have fun at the convention!

A nice gent got me a gift certificate to Off the Map Northwest down in Oregon. I should have enough for a good sized piece by early next year: so now I just need to figure out which one of their many guest artists/or resident artists with availability to get work from.

It's like being a kid in a candy store, wheeee!

Lesbian music?

Sarah Mclachlan?

Save the puppies!

Great, now Freddy is stuck in my head singing, "I want it all"... Well done sir.

Mark and I are actually a duo of high flying dough punchers that travel the country to challenge other bakers with our combination of trapeze and pink frosting.

It's like a rap battle, but with fondant.

Bad iPhone pics taken during session, first session, loving it! Kim Saigh, Memoir.

Awesome! Stoked for you!

Welcome to the forums. I am an enthusiast of cake. Please feel free to share your cake; just bring enough for everyone.

This thread is a great place to post pictures of your tattoos..

Hint hint.

Want.... To...... Play.

I'm not usually a fan of the GTA story lines, but this one just looks to good to pass up.

Spent over an hour sitting in the basement w/the kids tonight while the tornado sirens were going off. Posting updates on FB while listening to the traffic on my husband's department radio. The tornado came 1 mile south of us and then disappeared. After it had tracked on the ground for about 60 miles or so-and it was a mile wide-just poof, it was gone. Craaaazy.

Glad you guys are okay!

Whoooo! Grats @Rebushido !

We got twin kitties. Cuteness explosion! They wake up with me in the morning and hunt my toes while I stumble to the coffee :)

Why have I never thought of manhandling hogg until now?

Moderator on moderator action. The LST get together with only two people. Reowr.

<------- old people. \m/ >.< \m/

Greetings and salutations :)

Oh, I got the point alright :). At times though it's hard to hear what someone is trying to say when we are deafened by the anger of their words.

My apologies for any unsolicited advice. I will recommence snuggling with the wife because life is awesome and I'm a peace loving hippy.

@davidborjes No one here is trying to ruin anyone's livelihood. I didn't see any artists named, and it's not like there is a witch hunt to shut anyone down.

Not terribly long ago I got a killer tattoo and no aftercare instructions, but I wasn't worried because Google and common sense are my friend. Whether it was an oversight or whatever doesn't matter much. I will still gladly travel across the country for more work from him. That being said, caring for a new tattoo may be second nature to some (to you especially I'm sure), to tattoo virgins it can be a source of anxiety. It's certainly not a boycottable offense to forget to give out the info, but it certainly will help ease the virgin's mind.

I understand why you are angry Dave, although no one was attacking you personally. Being the cool guy you normally are, I'm sure the name calling and personal attacks are just a biproduct of you caring for your profession and getting a sensitive nerve hit.

Let's all have a drink together and let the air out :)

Have a good day dude!

Your strenuous objection to the audacity of my having a differing opinion is so noted!

I said good day sir! :)

As a fellow David, welcome to the forums!
