Back from the weekend filled with tattoos, people and great food.

Some good ones to start this week:

Tattoos and anthropology in ‘tattoos – a tribal heritage’ from India, ‘Maori tattoo getting under the world’s skin’ from New Zealand and one from Fiji about Samoan tattooing tradition. Ona different but somewhat related note a review of a book about tattoos and salvation.

An extreme body modification in ‘sexy Nina Arsenault on life, art and her penis.’

A sort of obituary in one from FL on a local pioneer of tattooing: ‘pioneer of tattooing upgraded profession.’

Finally something totally pop: a slideshow from ‘Immersed in Ink Tattoo Tour.’
