Finally, I can get a legal tattoo in Oklahoma

From Yahoo:

OKLAHOMA CITY - Oklahoma became the last state to make tattoos legal when the governor signed legislation Wednesday to license and regulate tattoo artists and parlors.

The measure ends a ban on tattooing that had been in effect since 1963. The new law takes effect Nov. 1.
I'd hate to think what an unlicensed tattoo place would look like. Do they give you a month's worth of penicillin with every tattoo?

My pleasure.

Now, friends of Sophzilla, I am the official keeper of contributions for the tattoo. Sophzilla's birthday approaches.

Hey, Soph, I'll go with you to get said tattoo!! I can recommend a great place.

Deja vu - haven't we talked about this Boston Terrier tattoo before?

Tattoo, huh? I'm game.

Eclectchick said...

Let's go!! I've again been having the urge to ink.

At this point of my life it would take more than two bottles of cider or weizen to get me into the tattoo parlor. But I never say never!

Eclectchick said...

Well, howsabout 2 bottles of Asbach?

Humble Pie said...

Or a couple rounds of "Chasing the Green Fairy"

It's hard to imagine where we'd find tatoos the next day!

Ahhh, quelle idee!

Funny you mention it. A friend here in the office has all the supplies. The substance has such a colorful presence in books I've read and movies I've seen - havta admit to powerful curiosity. It's a research thing. Um, yeah.
