An 'intimate" story concerning "suicide knobs".
I have a tattoo,on the inside,of my left forearm.It is a Shamrock with IRISH,&
a multi-colored scroll,underneath it.It & one on my other(right,outside)were
done in Newport,RI.The week after I had them done,they were still,basically,
scabs.I turned,a corner,in my car,& one of the Shamrock leaves,brushed against,the knob,on my steering wheel.(hardly ever used it)The leaf,was standing,up from my arm.Rather than go back to Newport,from NH,I spit on it,
& patted it back down.The tattoo artist had gauranteed it,but I tried to avoid driving back.I had ridden,my motorcycle back from Newport,with new tattoos
on BOTH forearms.Now,after approx 35 yrs,only I can notice,a slight discoloration,on the leaf.About 2/3 yrs ago,I had a custom designed chain,put
around my left bicep(wifes request)They are MUCH more expensive now,but
I told her that I would get it, if she paid! Irish
P.S.The latest one,has interlocking chain links,outlined in black with the links,
filled in with Kelly Green.
