Chris was one of my favorite shots from today. I’ve had an awesome response and I can’t wait to post the massive update of photos. This is only the first day!

For those of you asking what the tattoos on Chris’s chest say:

“The Most High Above Is My Only Judge”

“Courage Glory Passion”

It wasn’t until getting online that I saw the L-O-T-S flashing in my inbox on IAM and realized just how many IAM members and BME readers were at the convention! It was great seeing and meeting so many people! Hopefully tomorrow is just as great!

Ok, I know I said today would be a BMEBoys day, but I can’t seem to find these two guys on IAM, I’m going to post them anyway as I’m sure someone will recognise them!

Second photo after the break..

Tattoo on Cory by Mark Brettrager, Rising Tide Tattoo, Newark, Ohio.

“Poland is a crazy country!! People here don’t understand that if you have piercings or tattoos you’re a normal person. I am twenty years old and I cant find a job in my city because of how I look.”

I know how he feels in a way as I’ve lost a job due to my piercings (although they really were being unreasonable and I wasn’t willing to let them get away with such ignorance, but I’ll save that story for another day). Personally though I’d much rather sacrifice a job if it meant I could be myself and find employment in an atmosphere that made me happy. If an employer can’t look past physical appearance and are incapable of basing their decision on your skills, experience and personality, it’s likely they’re not worth working for anyway.

Just don’t wear a t-shirt like that to the interview. Kthx

So, as this is my last post (for the Canadian evening), I thought as a change of pace I’d treat you all to some geek influenced tattoos, and a scarification.. Another few hundred Kilobytes of photos are after the break!

First up is Matt and his “thumb of power” scarification that leaves motorists bewildered as to why they stopped to pick him up! By Wayde Dunn, Infinite Body Piercing, Philadelphia.

Next on the gurney is this super-vibrant “medical” tattoo on IAM: medic (surprise, surprise) and is by DeeDee Seruga, Requiem Body Art, Spring Hill, Florida.

These are my personal favourites! Clickthrough for larger images..

IAM: shadowsoldier, by various artists around Lansing and Kalamazoo, Michigan.

The penultimate tattoo in this entry is by an unknown artist (who was apparently bipedal through the entire sitting!) from Tiki Tattoo in Mesa, Arizona.

IAM: jessicamolko – “1.4% is the genetic difference between human and primate.”

And finally (hope you’re not too geeked out because the second batch is going up tomorrow night!), it’s this charming gamer tattoo by Matt Griffith (2 Dollar Pistol Tattoo, Chillicothe, Ohio).

I’m planning to make tomorrow a BMEBoys day, the unfortunate truth is that boys don’t seem to submit as many photos as the girls. Judging by the above though you can’t blame computer games for that!
