So I gave up working for the man... can't please him. I'll follow my dreams and open a tattoo shop.

We'll be located in Ankeny, IA so if you're in the area, come check us out. We are shooting for Jan 15th for opening day.

Here are a couple we've done.. these shots are right after they were done so they won't look as good as they will once they heal.

This one is the old-school Iowa Hawk (Herky) mascot:

Good luck to you... will you be doing Camaro tattos ? I'm sure you could find a few takers on this site!

wrek · 11-24-2009, 02:25 PM

Oh, I may do a few tribute tattoos.. not sure how Chevy feels about doing bowties, even though I see a lot of them.

Very cool man.. good luck with the shop. . . I've been running my own business for several years now... nothing better!

I've had a cleaning business for 11 years that my wife runs now..
Not sure on Camaro fest. If all starts out well, perhaps!

A manual transmission is the ultimate in control 9. You can use automotive jargon and not sound like a total tool 8. You can't spell "manual" without "man" 7. Manual transmissions prove you can do more than one thing at a time 6. You can't drift in an auto 5. You can't pull fancy moves in an automatic 4. You get better fuel economy with a stick 3. You’ll never look like a chump if you can drive stick 2. Manual transmission cars are faster 1. Women like a guy who is good with his hands.
