Hamilton's new tattoo

[yellowperil]

Wow, Ham now sports a shoulder to wrist tattoo (right arm). Not judging, just saying. I'd like to post it here, but can't seem to make it work. See pic on "F1 Sky sports"

Well, I guess I am judging but I'll keep it to myself, and I guess it's really none my business

I can't read your judgment - you don't give it.
Do you like it or not?

You're going to have to narrow it down for me alittle. "F1 Sky Sports" is a pretty big site.

[yellowperil]

When you get on F1 Sky sports, it's on "Gallery: thursdays pics" about 7 or 8 pics in.

I don't like it, looks too "jailhouse". I don't like it A LOT.

Tattoos are personal. Most of us who have them could give schit less what others think of them. Unless you're one of those who go for the commercialized "Tweety Bird" type stuff...and then you're just a tool.

I used to like Hamilton as a rookie. But his strange choices regarding his management, and whining about his girlfriend. Jeez, the guy has no spine. He makes too many bonehead decisions on the track for me to respect him. I think he's very immature and needs to grow a set. Racing is a hard business. Get over yourself. He's right about one thing. Alonzo is the fastest driver in F1. I think I will be rooting for Perez. I also like Webber. Vettel is just plain odd. One odd dude.

Like any tat...most likely gonna be there for life......

You must hang with a different tat group than what I've witnessed.

That's just it; I don't hang with a "tat group." I, and many of my friends/former comrades, have many tattoos. To me, and most of the people I've known, each tattoo tells a story--a place we've been, a hardship we've encountered, something symbolic for our children, etc. When I'm old and my skin is wrinkled and the artwork has become something possibly unrecognizable, I'll still be able to look at each one of my tats and smile (or frown), recalling the story it told. Well, at least until I become senile.

If I'm not mistaken, that's a Catholic/biblican thing (his tattoo).

Do you enjoy sharing the stories that your tats represent?

[BlueSkyJaunte]

I must not have been living a very storied life.

[gacook]

Some of them, Don, yeah. Of all my tats, my favorite one is just the names of my daughters.

Whats a "tat group"?

I got mine for me, not to belong to a group.

Exactly.

[HiBeam]

I smell a tat group being formed.

[yellowperil]

Yeah, Well I hope that tat makes him a half second quicker on race day,
he's probably gonna need it.

[Zeke]

I'm surprised he didn't have "Mercedes" tatted on his arm.
