Neither is mine Ron :) But more for genetic reasons than any other, aside from my head and "pubic regions" I've almost totally hairless. I must say I'd rather see a tight pair of jeans than a slack pair, and I do find "cargo" pants funny, especially if it upsets people when I laugh... :) I got a full arm tattoo, right arm, shoulder to wrist, I got it that big, A) because it came like that :) and B) because I could never afford to have it removed/regret it. It rarely sees the light of day, (bleaches the colour) and because I didn't get it for public consumption. I worked in an investment bank, never stopped me, people employ me for what I know, not what I look like, I got the tattoo aged 29, I've had it through ever job I've ever had post University. It's now officially part of me. I feel a bit "lopsided" at times, given a while I may even get my left shoulder done, I don't relish the prospect of the pain, but glucose tablets and a good book work wonders I find :) later jb
