in another popular thread today kids are opining on the benefits of cocaine use.
but don't listen to me. listen to the world.
if you want to find out what the world thinks about visible tattoos go do 10 job interviews for $100k/year positions and see how well you do.

what you have to realize is that not everyone has to worry about getting a job ... some of us own our companies and do very well .. that gives us the freedom to do what we like. I already have a great wife and two kids .. my only concern is when i meet people at my sons school and what there first thought is ... but i figure if i can afford the neighborhood i live in then they should know that I'm already doing OK ... If i ever feel that is an issue then I'll send them over to private school .. i don't think they will judge to much after i write a check ... I feel bad for people that have to conform to flock of sheep in shirt and tie ....
