OH holy crap. I'm so excited for my mister Jimbo!! Thtis is gonna be classic!!! Super SWEET!
I know, right?! I can't wait.
What an amazing statement - love the design! Can't wait to see the finished product.
You know I don't have any tattoos either (much to Milt M.'s dismay)...I'm thinking my 4-0 might be the time to de-chicken myself - we'll see.
What a great design! Wish I had the guts to get a tattoo!
