my half-sister in the SF Bay Area (she’s in her early 50s) and in a mid-life crisis, decided to get a big tattoo on her arm. Real classy.

I can understand a small tattoo in an discret area where the general public won't easily notice but these"In your face" tats and (ugh )nose rings, lip rings and "doorknob" studs" make them like circus sideshow attrations.

And the guys with all kinds of "piercings" They would be easy pickings in a fist fight.

Were I still a young man full of myself, at the end of our most excellent contest, the punks would be rolling on ground crying for his momma, and those shiny, but bloody ornament's would be hanging from MY rear-view mirror like a trophy...

BTW, she’s also a public school teacher and a Communist (as in thinks the CA Dems are too right-wing).
