If anyone in Frisco or Greenwich showed up with a tattoo of Bush, he would in all likelihood get lynched.
After all, such a display would suggest senses of decency, honor, responsibility and sanity, which have all long been verboten in all such havens of compassion, tolerance and understanding.
And speaking of Putin, give him dark hair and a pince-nez and he would look uncomfortably much like the late Lavrenti Beria.
Hmmmm!
And incidentally, if the Soviet prisoners of the 1930’s wanted to avoid getting shot, they should have had tattoos of Koba on the backs of their necks, as well as on their chests. Remember the myriad “administrative liquidations” in cellar of the Lubyanka?
Tannenberg: Regarding Beria: now there was a sick motherf**ker!
At least this guy didn’t get Putin’s doppelganger tattooed on his chest!
Yes, Macker, Beria was sick, but any worthy successor to Yagoda and Yezhov would have to be. And he was regarded as a “reformer” in their wake.
One thing alone may be said for Beria: Unlike his forerunners, he was crafty enough to outlive Stalin (no small achievement). But in the process, of course, he accumulated too much dirt on Malenkov, Khruschchev and the rest of the Politburo boys, so they ganged up on him and had him shot, naturally enough.
I wonder if anyone we know has a tattoo of Slick Willie on his posterior....
Tann. re Slick Willy. His posterior or her’s?
Sorry Skipper for lowering the tone.Personally I have never succumbed to the “Illustrated Man” world of body decoration. I appreciate for ex servicemen (Oink et al) that tatoos are pretty much de riguer, but I have never understood the appeal.
OCM thanks again for (yet another) belly laugh. I love those one liners.
There may be a number of “hers,” Lyndon, so long as you mention it (chuckle).
As for tattoos in general, I agree with you completely.
In most cases, as far as I can see, tattoos now amount to some sort of silly rebellion against convention (or against someone’s idea of convention). That is, when someone actually thinks that far, and doesn’t go along with the idea just because it’s “waaaay cooool.”
But every time I see some silly wench all tattooed up (and so many of them now are!), I wonder how she is going to confront middle age and later, when her time for parading as a “hottie” is past. But I don’t suppose that she even gives a thought to it.
“Now” equals “infinity” for many a silly juvenile, after all.
Devil knows what a pity!
And by the way, Cat, anything that says “Mom” upside down says “Wow” right side up.
You’d rather bite your tongue out than admit it, but let’s face it, your heart is in the right place, even if you have the most droll way of showing it.
Ha-ha-ha! Touche’, my friend. That was smooth.
I must admit that I did see a lot of tattos in the Navy but I never felt the need or dsire for one myself. There was an amazing variety, ranging from a fully rigged sailing ship on one man’s chest to the old gunner with hinges tattoed on the inner elbows and cobwebs on the outer elbows (and a helluva lot more, I thought of him as “the tattooed man").
As to this idjit:
“you can hardly find anyone with a Putin tattoo”
Do you suppose there’s a reason for that?
“When I had the tattoo done, I became more serious and responsible”
That shouldn’t have been too hard, considering where you started.
the barstard, makes my tony blair tattoo look crap, will now get a 1971 long hair hippy
blair one done.

Be sure to send pics, Bulldog.
No… wait.... nevermind.
