Lip Tattoos

Tattooed LipsLip tattoos are becoming more and more popular with shop owners reporting that many chose obscenities are a popular choice. Tattooing the inner mouth began with the practice of identifying horses this way. These tattoos usually last less than a year and is reportedly a sensitive area for tattoo work - I'm talking pain. It may be more dangerous although the increase in potential health issues is small - according to one doctor if the tattoo doesn't heal properly, there is a change of hepatitis, general infection and nerve damage. I have not found any cases of this but if any tattoo doesn't heal right, there are health issues to contend with.

Motorcycle HeadstoneI don't really "get" the love some people have for their cars and motorcycles. I understand the love of riding free and all that good stuff - but pouring money into something I can't enjoy after I'm gone - just don't get that. This motorcycle headstone - It's a novelty and other visitors to the cemetary will probably get a kick out of it, take pictures, and it'll be the most popular grave in the place.

Tattooed Fish

Tattooed Fish from SingaporeMaybe you've heard of painted cats - but have you heard of tattooed fish? Singapore exports tattooed fish to interested stores although animal rights activists do not condone this strange practice. The fish are sedated (I wonder how that is done?) and then they are tattooed in the same manner as humans - needles are used to insert pigments into the skin. The tattoos last 3-4 months.
