It's awesome that your relatives are keeping a positive outlook through their struggles, and that you are inspired by them. That's a great state-of-mind to be in.

(Yeah, that sounds cheesy. )

I'm generally not a fan of peacocks, because artists tend to paint them in a very tacky manner, but you have a nice tattoo placement, and the peacock doesn't have the typical delicate, somewhat anthropomorphic, feminine characteristics about it. Artists often try to impart characteristics in Peacocks that make them look cute, and it usually just looks horrible. Yours just looks like a strong bird. You should see bete_noir's peacock painting. It's horrible but good!

That's good, I'm glad you enjoyed it. What did you shoot? Between my friends and I, we have quite a variety of weapons to shoot when we go. I find it to be very relaxing.

What does the Peacock tattoo on your side mean? (Or does it have a meaning other than what can be seen?)

lookin' good!

Love the costume!!

This is why those guys give really good guys a bad name there are so many decent guys out there who are honestly trying to make a difference and some douche has to come along thinking he is so effing cool and screw things up.

can i be one of your new friends?

Thanks! I'm all for outing creeps, personally I think if anyone does stuff like that then they deserve to be embarrassed .

I run hot and cold on this site as well. I have been far more prolific on "The Social Network" as it is known where my Hawaiian adventure, and motorcycle restoration triumphs and tragedies play out in real time. My following is significantly greater in the real world than it is here. And oddly enough Rayde is the only person who exits in both worlds through a series of odd coincidences.

congrats! hope all is still well.
