Based on observation, I believe that there are millions and millions of dollars worth of tattoos walking around our city. They are engraved on the toes, feet, shins, calves, knees, thighs, and every aspect of the front, side and back of torsos. Also, fingers, hands, wrists, forearms., upper arms, necks, faces, ears and craniums.

The collective value of tattoos inked into people, often in full colour and graphic detail, must be astronomic.

The mind boggles.

There will never ever be tattoos emblazoned upon my form – not anywhere. I hate tattoos, they revolt me personally and my skin will remain unblemished by this carving and inking.

From the viewpoint of tattooing, I will always be a cleanskin.
