What We Missed

Those of us who graduated in 1954 have so much to be thankful for. Not the least of which is that body piercings and tattoos were unheard of back then.

Well, some of the men returning from WW2 battlefronts did have them, but as a professor of mine once said, "A tattoo simply means that you've been drunk at least once in your life."

Now, 55 years later, 24% of Americans between the ages of 18 and 50 have at least one tattoo.

According to what I read on the internet, Charlotte has 61 tattoo parlors!

Make sure you don't accidentally wander into one of them or you might come out looking like this.......
