Stick to tattooing, Dude.

Survey: 24 percent between 18-50 tattooed - Yahoo! News: "'Really, nowadays, the people who don't have them are becoming the unique ones,' said Chris Keaton, a tattoo artist and president of the Baltimore Tattoo Museum."

Ahem. I don't think one's really "unique" if one is just like 76% of everybody else. Under 50, that is. Over 50 doesn't count. In fact one is not unique if one is just like any anybody else but that's a semantic quibble, right enough, because nobody cares what "unique" means any more. But any way you cut it, if these guys are "becoming" unique they've got a whole lot of becoming left to do.

I wonder if tattoos are covered by Medicare. That'd be cool.
