The Floor Is Made Of Lava!

I must admit, I’ve been putting off posting these for a few days, only because I like feet and what happened to Marcus is spoiling it a little for me..

Read more to found out how they got in this state!

The best part was when they scrubbed my feet and legs with toothbrushes twice a day..

I had a house fire! A propane tank leaked while I was living in a small town in Alaska, we had no natural gas lines which is why we had the tank.. Propane is heavier than air and it pooled around my feet and when it caught that spark my side and arm and face got kissed, but my feets took the brunt..

Actually, I guess the best part was the painkillers!

My feet are okay now although my tattoos are covered by unnecessary skin grafts. I could have healed in the right environment but I was three thousand miles from home and most of my friends didn’t even have running water. I ended up in the hospital for about two weeks, they did the skin grafts to speed up the healing and get my uninsured ass out into the real world. I was hobbling around on crutches at the bar a month later, munching pain pills, throwing up in trash cans, and hitting on old hot blondes!

Poor lad.

BME Update – 2,307 new images

I went away for the weekend. It wasn’t worth the stress and the headache of knowing I wouldn’t be updating. At least the site only had to go 3 days without a massive update. This update is full of tattoo goodness. The missing May 24th images should be resurrected by this update. Not sure what happened. It’s most likely an error in the zip file that didn’t unzip properly causing the HTML files not to be updated. The search engine on the main page is also working again.

The cover for this update is unmistakably work by Cere on MagneticDistortion. Not only is Cere BME, you are. I am. We all are. If it wasn’t for the community. Where would any of us be?

The next image update should include more work by Cere as well. Hopefully some great photos out of Texas and I know I’ll have convention coverage from NIX after the convention in the middle of June. I’m going to have a booth there which is nice. Notice the banners? If you’re in the Toronto area, hope to see you there.

The only thing I need now is a great convention banner. Anyone feeling creative?

Pat Dry Your Eyes.

I think it’s time soap companies started looking into “No Tears” hand lotion..

Gabriel Dain (the owner of the creepy hands) writes..

“Seeing as there’s been two other “palm eye” tattoos featured on ModBlog (Roo: I can only find one) I thought these might interest you. They weren’t inspired by the Pan’s Labyrinth tattoos, however. I don’t really know what they were inspired by, if they were indeed the product of inspiration, but I love them! They’ve washed out heaps since I got them (about 3 months ago), but I’ll try to send an updated photograph soon.”
