    Oh I'm with ya I love ink too.. so very addicting. I have 3 so far and about to get my 4th in the next month which will take up my whole upper part of my left arm. I'm thinking ill do my firefighter tattoo as my 5th. and yeah I dont know any girl firefighters except the one that works part time with me but dont see her often. I wondering sometimes if the chicks that do what I do are like me at all. Like i dont get along with most girls mostly got guys friends.

    For cool. I'm with ya on the tats. I love them and every tat has a meaning. And yeah something about girls just to stuck on themselves or something. And yeah i notice more every day how much people dont get it. And sadly I tend to find them kinda stupid. And it never ceases to amaze me how stupid people really are. But thats why we got a job so thank goodness for them. So I see your volunteer, you wanting to go paid or what? jw. And explain to me what a hand crew is? cuz i dont knwo or at least not the term.
