What’s going down at Occupy DC right now. The National Park Service said it would begin to crack down by noon.

I would think a lot of this depends on the tattoo shop and the people working there. You could always go to a local artist and have them design your tattoo, then have it done by the parlor. I’ve known a few people to do that, and it’s worked out well
Yes, now I just need to find an artist. I might try designing it myself. If I do, I’ll be sure to post a picture.
This is a tattoo I saw on fuckyeahtattoo a while back. Okay, so I like the handwriting style and the brushstrokes of this one. I want it to say “Soleil” and I’d like to incorporate her birthday (March 19, 2010) in it somewhere. I think it’d be cool if the date were a small part of one of the brushstrokes, so that it doesn’t really stand out. I tend to like to do my dates like day/month/year (19 March 2010), but maybe it’d look better to just use numbers (3/19/2010). I’d also like to keep the sunburst, since “soleil” means sun, but I think I’d like to maybe have the sunburst be incorporated into the letter “o.”
Is it horrible to copy someone’s tattoo? I don’t really feel like this is copying, but more like inspiration.
I want to get a tattoo of my daughter’s name in a few weeks. I have the design in my head, but not on paper. Will most tattoo parlors talk with you and design a tattoo like they did on Miami Ink? I’m also not sure exactly where I want it. I’ve been thinking my arm, but now I’m wondering if it might look better somewhere else. Do tattoo artists ever give advice about stuff like this?

yep. many consider them a hazard, others just unaesthetic. I think you can get a collapsible bike stand that’s about the size of a Topeak Road Morph pump that fits in most bike bags, but most just lash the bike to a tree/railing. What model you got?
I’ll have to look at the bike stand option. I think it’d help us since we have baby seats attached. I haven’t tried it yet, but I can see how it might be difficult without a kickstand.
My wife and I both got Giant Cypress STs. Might be more than we need. We’re mostly just going to bike around our subdivision, but we do have some hills.

There’s a bias against kickstands. Weight, etc. I had the shop add one, because seriously.
Yea, I just had no idea. So, people just lean their bikes against something I guess? I think I may have one added as well. Thanks!
Okay, here’s another question for you bike folks: why do people roll up one of their pants legs? Do pants get caught in the chain or something?
I’m sure I’ll have many more basic bike questions in the coming days and weeks. Bear with me, y’all. Or bare with me. Whatevs.
