Most online articles posted during last few days deal with tattoo conventions in Singapore and the US, so here’s a small selection: ‘I’m saving skin for nice design’ (gender thing as it discusses women at the convention), ‘Miami Tattoo Expo’ (with a slideshow), ‘pictures of permanent modification’ (Cigar City Tattoo Convention) and ‘tattoo convention drawing crowd in Ybor’ with “cool” comments by readers.

On a different and rarer note a Canadian article about a suspension event: “Piercing Experience” in Edmonton, Canada.

Two satirical pieces from the UK: ‘pierced testicle craze sweeps university’ and ‘piercings in record cold.‘

Since I’m a runner, I couldn’t resist posting this one: ‘Disney Marathon’ – its male winner has something to do with tattoos!
