Tattoos ... Unsavory or Main Stream?

Emerging from their often unsavoury reputation of the recent past, tattoos have gained increasing prominence in the past decade. Life magazine estimated in 1936 that 10 million Americans, or approximately 6% of the population had at least one tattoo. A Harris Poll, done in 2003, nearly triples those numbers and estimates that 16% of Americans now have one or more tattoos. According to a 2006 survey by the Pew Research Center, thirty-six percent of those ages 18 to 25, and 40 percent of those ages 26 to 40, have at least one tattoo.

Quote on forgiveness and forgetfulness

I got this quote from one of the mailing lists I am on. I simply love it. In my opinion, this is quite the way of life all of us should readily embrace. XD --- "Often we allow ourselves to be upset by small things we should despise and forget. We lose many irreplaceable hours brooding over grievances that, in a year's time, will be forgotten by us and by everybody. No, let us devote our life to worthwhile actions and feelings, to great thoughts, real affections and enduring undertakings." Andre Maurois 1885-1967, Writer

Signs You're No Longer in College...

Here's another mass, courtesy of Joke of the Day. It's one of those nostalgic oh-so-I-am-not-YOUNG-anymore-OMG... Run through the list and see which one applies to you. The list may be reflective of the stereotypes of the author... not all of us had identical college life. --- -- You no longer know what time fast food drive-thru windows close. -- Your potted plants stay alive. -- You pay at least a dollar more than the minimum payment on your credit card bill. -- Your friends' hook-ups and break-ups are now marriages and divorces. -- You attend parties that the police don't raid. -- You're not expected to leave the room when the adults are talking. -- You refer to college students as "those kids." -- You drink wine, scotch and martinis instead of just beer, beer and beer. -- You feed your dog Science Diet instead of leftover pizza. -- At 6 a.m., you're putting your contact lens in instead of taking them out. -- Naps are no longer weekday options. -- Dating involves dinner and a movie, not keggers and Ecstasy. -- Grocery lists contain more than toilet paper and potato chips. -- You leave parties because you have a busy day tomorrow, not because the EMS guy has strapped you down.
