    Lol this is why I dont like tattoos. Always find lots of them of squishy people.

    But hey... Them hands oof yours look tough with those tattoos.

    "A young kid stepped in from the cold
    And he ordered up a drink
    He said don't look surprised old man I'm older than you think
    If I was the talkin' kind I could tell you a thing or two
    And since you didn't ask, let me show you my tattoos
    He said I got this rose in Memphis in some back old alley dump
    Picked this eagle up in Dallas, man I sure was good and drunk
    And you know the way I see it, if it gets any worse out there
    A guy like me hasn't got a prayer
    The old man poured some coffee
    He said this one's on me
    Sat down his cigarette and rolled up his sleeve
    Said take a good look here my friend
    You see what these are
    Just my ragged old and jagged ordinary scars
    He said I got this one in Paris in a war 'fore you were born
    And this one when I was half your age workin' on my daddy's farm
    And you know the way I see it, son you ain't seen what I've seen
    Cause tattoos and scars are different things
    He said I've been here for all these years
    And what I know is this
    If you look and listen close
    A man will show you what he is
    You know the way I see it, you've been 'round but you're still green
    Cause tattoos and scars are different things"

    Agreed regarding scars.

    My ink is me wearing my emotions on my sleeves.

    Damn Obs, the RA must not be pleasant.

    Its not so bad until I have to do intricate repetitive movement. I braided a 4' triple strand of paracord theother day and it lit them up

    I swear I've gotten more arthritic nodules on my hands in the last 5 years than I thought I would ever have. The decreased dexterity really pisses me off.

    My niece wanted me to braid up some 550 cord to make her a bracelet, I finally got aggravated with it and pulled a bunch off the spool and gave it to her. She cuts hair so she's can braid waaaay better than me.
    There are 3 loves in my life: my wife, my English mastiffs, and my weightlifting....Man, my wife gets really pissed when I get the 3 confused...

    When I was early 20s I could do shit with an 1851 navy revolver or a colt csaa that was true talent.

    I used to quickdraw and backspin it offthe recoil and holster it smooth as glass.
    Today I would be better off throwing it at the target upon quick draw.

    Lack of dexterity made me give up a lotta stuff. I feel your pain
