Skull Me Beautiful!
Sorry about the larger than usual gap between posts, I went air conditioner hunting (grrrrr) after work and it was lame.
To keep you entertained until we get back to the boyz here’s a piece by Dr. Quinn (featured recently)..
One Chance, One Life. So Get A Job!!
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
BMXnet Conference 2007/2008
I’m glad to be able to republish the recap of the BMXnet conference to help support the efforts of INKstar and others in putting together a great educational conference. Click the image to read last year’s recap and find out information on this years convention. I’m happy to be a sponsor this year and should be attending the conference, even though due to Germany’s restrictions, BMXnet cannot link to BME.
BMXnet Conference 2007
In early November 2007, about 150 piercers, tattooists and other body modification artists came together to attend and participate in the first BMXnet Conference. This is an account written by one of the organizers, and was translated from German to English by Hillary.
And H8.
This one (with a “slightly more negative, but it’s only a cartoon so it’s ok” feel to it than the previous post) is apparently by Diverse Tattoos, in Hamburg, but I think the sender might have meant something else.. Either way, it made me smile!
Love Openings.
STFU and Read!
This tattoo (by Bruce at Body Art Tattoo, Newport Beach, CA) has to be one of my favourites of recent months. I’m pretty sure I’ve seen this sprayed on a wall around Toronto, along with “Think, Please!” Toronto graffiti artists are quite special.

“I’ve wanted my knuckles tattooed for years, so after a few days of internal struggle and a few drinks I decided to go for it! I think that people nowadays are getting lazier and are less informed, so my tattoos are a reminder to me and everyone else to educate yourself and read more!”
If I could afford to have my books shipped over from England, I would definitely do as I’m told..

The Geeks Shall Inherit The N64!
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!
