Happy Friday morning, ModBlog! Here is a handsome man, named Tyler, who has complementary, healthy piercings (the microdermal is not Photoshopped; his lobe is not blown-out), and deep, dark blue eyes. This is the very definition of a Christmas miracle! Crap, I never changed my calendar, did I? Whatever, enjoy.

“Natty Dreads” sends in this black-and-white glamor shot. Is nice, yes? Yes.
Bodyboard enthusiasts will be delighted to note than Tiff is observing proper safety technique and keeping her leash fastened at an appropriate length. They may be dismayed, however, to see that she is nowhere near the water, which even a novice will tell you could result in rugburn, splinters, and hurt feelings.

I know this photo is supposed to elicit some sort of reaction from me, but what? Sure, it’s the mouth of a woman, with many piercings, eating a creamsicle of some sort, but I feel like I’m missing some sort of vital subtext that is preventing me from enjoyOH IT LOOKS LIKE A BLOW JOB. Now I get it.

Sayeth the gentleman pictured above:
At first I wanted to have five implants, but then I received an e-mail from Samppa saying that six would be much cooler, so he gave me the sixth transdermal for free! Thanks again, Samppa!

Tim Gunn checks in:
“So, Caralena, what have you got for us? Oh MY! I think that leopard-print headband is really daring, let me just say. And surrounding those lovely blue eyes with dark colors is doing it for me. It is. Oh, and juxtaposing the blues of your eyes with the bright pink beads on your surface piercing? You have made it work, my friend.”
Thanks, Tim!

You know what? It’s been a long week. I just want to go home, turn on the radio, and do some work around the house. First thing, I’ve gotta fix this broken light.
So many loose screws! Glad I’ve got my lucky screwdriver, I tell you.
And now, just have to water some plants, and then it’s time for bed. I’ve earned this.

Whew! Wild week, there, folks. Some memorable moments:
We’ll be around over the weekend. Don’t be afraid to visit. Enjoy yourselves, ModBlog, stay safe, and thank you for your continued support of BME.
I recently had the chance to speak with Sean Dowdell, the co-owner, alongside Chester Bennington from Linkin Park, of Club Tattoo, which has been a staple of Arizona body modification for nearly 15 years now. Since then, Dowdell has opened three more stores in Arizona, and is just over a month away from opening a massive 3,300-square-foot shop inside the Planet Hollywood casino in Las Vegas. Sean’s about as talented and motivated as they come, and has been around long enough to speak with some authority about the industry.
