hi

off to bali (indonesia) for the honeymoon.then off to europe. london, italy, and spain. tattoo and soak in alot of culture. time for meditation and rejuvenation, i will post the pics of the trip, more inspiration for the masses. blessings and strength.

orly 

balance

 waves of patience and winds of change....this is what i need. time to change things

up a bit. ive been tattooing too much and i am to the point of burning out the torch i have

for south pacific tribal tattooing.i feel like i am giving to much of my soul and i am not getting fed

or nourished by inspiration.

  i need to balance myself and i am not doing that.

 thanks to my blood brother in tattooing for checking me and making me realize that i have to get

grounded and rooted again. 

 sorry to all my appointments but i will be moving most of you to a later day.

new appointments... i might be taking but not too sure yet.  it all depends on the 

scheduling i am doing. 

i need to regain my inspiration again, i might sound like i am over acting but if

i dont do this for myself and get centered again then i will be finding a new 

occupation, blessings and respect. orly

Ankh, Scarab

Correction on the Dell tattoo

Okay, so a while back I posted here about really bad logo tattoos. One in particular stood out, a Dell tattoo:

To me, Dell is a kind of lame, nothing-brand-- not one that I thought anybody would be stoked about enough to get it branded on them for life. So I made fun of the dude with the Dell tattoo. He emailed me today:

"i am emailing you. about your post about tattoos, 1 special one tho, the dell tattoo, see that tattoo is actually my tattoo, see my name is Todd Dell, in my life i always got the DUDE YOUR GETTING A DELL. and stuff like that i always laughed it off, so my friend was like dude you should get the LOGO tattoo on you i was like sure, thus knowing i could get away with it, no im not a nerd, i dont even own a dell computer, im actually a mma fighter lol."

So, I take it back. Sorry, Dell guy. You have a sense of humor about your name and you got a tattoo to prove it. You are officially awesome.
