Let's get to one. Jaye and I left Indiana on Tuesday morning, fly down to Orlando and get checked into our room. What a great hotel room, we stayed at the Shingle Creek Resort. Check it out at rosenshinglecreek.com After dumping our bags in the room we headed straight out the door to Cocoa Beach. It was about 50 miles away. I'm guessing Tuesdays aren't big beach days because the beach wasn't all that crowded. The water was really warm. The sun was really hot...a perfect beach day. We rented a couple of chairs and a beach umbrella...I know I wasn't the fattest guy on the beach but I might have been the whitest. (hence, the need for the umbrella). After a couple of layers of sun screen I was set. You know how long it has been since I sat around? No cell phones, computers or calendars to work on...it was great.
After some time I opened my eyes to see this lady standing there with her buddies. Keep in mind that I'm not a big fan of tattoos, I don't have anything against them, I just don't think I would ever want one. If I did it would have to be an orange and blue C, or a Chicago bear head, or something like that. I have a lot of friends that have them. More power to them. The tattoo has always been one of the "rebel" things. The bikers have them, the rockers have them, they are the "cool" on the edge kinda things. I've never been cool or on the edge. All that said to show you this picture.
Lady on the beach
Tattooed lady on the beachI think this picture takes away all the "coolness" in getting a tat. Now all you bikers and rockers share a bit of "rebel-ness" with this lady. How cool is that! ~Brian~

Oh dear, I wouldn't have KNOWN she was a lady 'till you said so - - - - and even then I couldn't quite believe it!
Ooooops!!
I'm the same way with tattoos. The only ones I see are the wet and stick ones Alex wants every once in a while from the cereal box. HA!
Glad to hear you had a chance for fun.
I read an article not to long ago in PC Mag that suggested that blogging is dying and that by 2009 many will be abandoned. The article also suggested that blogging peaked last year. So who knows on that! Talk to you soon.
Welcome back!!! I'm glad you had a good time on your vacation.
And you're right - this "lady" takes a lot of the coolness out of it. but her sock length is making me feel better about my tan line!
The only thing to suggest this is a woman is her purse. The tattoo on her leg does lesson the "cool" aspect of getting one, I must agree. Makes you think twice about getting a tattoo. Must consider what it will look like on your 60+ year old self.
Funny..the whole time we were in Florida I kept trying to convince Brian he should get a tattoo with me. After all, we were on vacation..let's go wild...do something CRAZY. Now I know what he was thinking!!! hmmm ~Jaye~
Who says this lady GOT this tattoo when she was YOUNG?!? Maybe she JUST got it to celebrate her age - - - - - :-)
So true, Keetha...maybe she was like me and wanted something to remember her Florida vacation with...nothing says Florida like a Koala bear!! tee/hee
:-) - - - - Thanks for the message, Jaye!!!
Hey Brian - - - MY COLTS ROCKED OUT TONIGHT!!!! (Even in their "sissy blue")
Keetha, I didn't realize the colts were playing last night. Sounds like they did a good job.
WHO SAID THAT!?!? Which one of you didn't know the Colts were playing the season opener????????
If it's Jaye - - - you are forgiven.
If it's Brian - - - I'd think you'd keep track of your "enemy."
;-)
Hmm. Here I am at the tattoo parlor. What should I get? A skull? Harley logo? Tribute to Pearl Jam? Heart with "MOM?" Naah, make it a koala today.
