Hey Sleazy.....ok...After working me for the better part of the last year, here I am.

I am an intensely private person so this all seems a little surreal to me, but here goes...

1. What the fuck's with all the tatoos? Did you have a bad relationship with your father or something? Pics

How many people do you know that have a good relationship with their father?....lol besides you I mean.

I got my first tattoo 21 years ago. It was a dagger about 3 inches long, on my left forearm. I was in jail at the time (we?ll cover that next) and it was done with a sharpened paper clip with thread wrapped around it using bible paper ashes and water mixed together for ink. I?ve discovered there are better ways to get tattoo?d now. ;) Tattoos are like Art to me and I get to take my collection with me everywhere I go. I?ve had tons of people ask me about the meaning of my tattoos, why I get them but the question I get the most is ?Aren?t those going to look like shit when you get old??. My answer is a simple one. Old wrinkled skin looks shitty no matter what?at least mine will have some color.

Tattoos are an addiction. I don?t know of many people that have just one tattoo. It always starts with one but then you start looking at other parts of your body, you have more life experience, and it becomes easy to find reasons for more ink.

Eventually I will be covered from just below my neck down to my ankles and to my wrists. I am about 1/3 of the way right now. I am getting tattoo?d on Thursday, I?ll post some pics or video of what I get done. In the mean time here are a couple pics to tide you over.
