And my other Joe tattoo is definitely one of a kind because I comissioned a guy to draw the Eco Warriors in boxes for me and then I got it inked. Yup, I bet it's safe to assume I'm the only geek in the world that has those jokers in tattoo form. LOL
Tattoos SHOULD be unique so I dig that policy of turning folks away, Ross, good call. All of my tattoos are unique to some degree, some much moreso than others.
I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say show us the eco-warriors

That's why I've never had one done..Andy, Ive found that a lot things that seemed cool when you're young don't always seem so cool as you get older..a bit like when you see old men with faded love & hate tat's on their knuckles!
I've always had an admiration for people who have great tatoo works of art done..& for a local tatoo artist, who comes in to use the shops photocopier & has a big sketch book full of great ideas..but I just can't ever seeing myself with one.
B.t.w. you often hear tales people who have Japanese words tatooed on them thinking it says something like "love" or som-such positive saying, only to find out later it says something rude or is just a randon made up symbol..any one know if there's any truth in such stories?
