Show Yourselves, Part 4: Sucking up bandwidth with poor pictures of weird tattoos

Re: Show Yourselves, Part 4: Sucking up bandwidth with poor pictures of weird tattoos

Wow -- guy (or gal) did a great job with the detailing work. Are you having it filled in, or just leaving the outline?

Judging by the shading detail, I'd say it's pretty well filled in as is.

Nice work.

Yeah, it's done - a "black and gray" tattoo. If anyone's every in need of a tattoo and find themselvs in Bemidji, check out Your Mom's Tattoo Atelier and ask for Mike Wiltse. He's a fantastic artist!

Never posted in this thread before, but I didn't see a tattoo thread and wanted to share. Just got this yesterday:

I've been in Bemidji for 11 and a half years now, announcing high school hockey (amongst other sports) on the radio, plus I do the show College Hockey Tonight (click on the link in my sig!) about Bemidji State Univ. hockey. Anyway, that's what the Bemidji player represents - either the HS team or BSU. The goalie has an "N" on each shoulder, just like Northern Michigan Univ. - that's where I went to school and really fell in love with the sport. I hope you like it, because it's way nicer than I had hoped it would turn out...
That is an awesome tattoo! :)

I'd show off my tattoos, but screw you all. :)

Thanks. I've also got a Chicago Cubs logo on the other leg, but wanted to do something much more unique this time around. I had thought about BSU, NMU and the high school logos, but the more I thought about it, I allowed the artist to help me come up with an idea, entering the place much more open to ideas. We worked on the design for several weeks, with my input at the beginning basically being, "Bemidji, "NMU," "hockey," and "old school." It nailed all four of those, and went so far beyond too. I'm really thrilled...

Kev: It's a trend in diamonds. Champagne. It's a nice stone.
Willie Conway: Yeah, no, I heard about this. It's a new trend in the diamond trade, they're trying to create a new market.
Tommy: Oh, right, right. yeah. They were callin' 'em "p*ss", but they weren't moving any units. What's with you, man?
Paul Kirkwood: What?
Tommy: Well, how much you pay for this brown rock?
Paul Kirkwood: What difference does it make?
Tommy: Diamonds are supposed to be colorless! You go out and buy a colored diamond for a girl you're not even seeing, man, you must be eating retard sandwiches again.

I just played in the 2011 US Pond Hockey Championships. We won our first two games and lost the third game in our round-robin bracket to the team that went on to win it all, the Vaporizers. Our first game began play with a temp of -6 this morning, our last game ended and it was -1.

After first game, v. Happyland Hockey, won 11-4:

After second game, v. Brit's Pub, won 16-10:

The new beer sponsor is Coors. In years past it had been Summit. I could have gone for a Summit Winter Ale.

2011 trip to Mille Lacs. This was taken after the Sat night fish fry and "Slap the Pig" (it's a Wisconsin thing we just went along with it) event:

A very rare instance (probably one-time only) of me in a cowboy hat. bbdl's "neat hat" a la Dwight Yoakam:

I like that clubbing seals shirt.

Thanks. I did pick up the "Is it solipsistic in here, or is it just me?" shirt this week. Figured it fit my Gopher Arrogance stance. ;)

I wear that shirt and people don't get it.
