Yes. Ben (elijah) and I have known each other for years, and I am responsible for introducing him to OTF (I really am sorry

). Louise (Verres

) is my girlfriend and elijah's close friend.

Do we have the highest concentration of OTFers within a small part of a town?

**Ecthy** · September 8, 2003, 08:20

there'd still be Oundle in England, those guys don't post here though. they used to at CGN.

then, Salford in the Greater Manchester area.

Haifa, all over the place anyway.

just some examples.

Celtic Knots(Zoomorphics preferably. If you feel really rich try to find a good rendition of the Tree of Life).
There are really good artists around that do this kind of stuff, maybe I'll hunt down a site for you a wee bit later.

Firelad:

Thanks! The tree of life sounds good, I'll check it out.

One thing you seem to be forgetting in all this, elijah: Dom.

On the other hand, she could love it

. Besides, one hopes that women won't be paying attention to my back. On the other hand, my upper arm is probably a better bet. How painful with this thing get? (both physically and financially).

You Jewish, Ben?

Yeh, I hate real bacon with a passion. I don't actually eat red meat now

I'm not religious, but Jewish culturally, and I was brought up Kosher (and Yiddish

)

Is Dom really that bad on them? Even ones in unobtrusive places? I swear every time someone says her name talking about her and Ben I think of something different

And we all know what you're thinking Will

My intentions are nothing but honourable

Verres and Drogue are my best friends, Drogue is Verre's SO.

Ok, Wittgenstein sucks, but no more than Popper. Come to think of it, I cant think of any actual philosopher I agree with totally, except possibly Protagoros but not really as a working philosophy, more of a starting point.

We are all liberal (relative to everyone else in Drogue's case, Verre's and myself concur on much (please?

), and we all live within about 4 sq miles (Drogue is about 10 min walk from me). Must be something in the water... "Northampton, the town of the liberal proto-intelligentsia"

Incidentally, I'm posting from College while I'm supposed to be in a psychology lesson

We concur on certain things-so long as you do not mention the mill limit!

**Whaleboy** · September 8, 2003, 09:06

Oh we'll see about that

I would say not much (on upper arm) but I know how you reacted to acupuncture

And depends on size, between £30 and £100 for what you'd want probably.

Why don't you tatoo Kan't Critique of Pure Reason instead ? (In very small print). Or Proust in full text ? That would be cool, and you can be sure your gf won't be bored in bed

**Cruddy** · September 8, 2003, 10:48

Get a CND logo. Make sure it's in a position where you can invert it when the need arises.

As for where - look up "tattoo parlour" in your Thomson or yellow pages.

Alternatively, kill somebody and get sent to jail for a few years. Only if you really need the tat and can't afford to pay for it. Lots of inmates will offer to help with this, although of course they aren't exactly famous for their artistic prowess, hygeine or steady hands.

In short - I think you're barmy but good luck anyway.

I looked into this a couple of years ago when considering a tattoo. I didn't get one in the end.

Useful site

http://skinart.co.uk/skinart/advice.html

It will cost more but get it done by someone good, not just the nearest place. You're likely to have it for a long time. Laser is about the only way to have one removed and it is a lot more expensive than having the tattoo done in the first place.

Be sober when you make your choice.

It can be addictive and you may not stop at one so it could be worth deciding on a theme - celtic, tribal, animals or whatever and sticking to it.

If you want something complex (size, pattern, colours) it may take several visits so you may have to go back repeatedly.

I hope you don't regret it.

How well I know

Or objectivity theory. Actually, it might just be better to leave your mouth closed

Ah! You know I'm right! Escape the boundaries of your everyday notion of reality and open your mind to non-pragmatic (which suck by default in philosophy imo) concepts.

"hey, can you lift you're arm up?"

I'm rather looking forward to this... now to find the money!

Get a Tat like Steve-O's, but with your face!
