I hope the cream works to remove tattoos...and it's not another hoax-like claim.
Tow headed baby? OMG. I'm really curious to know why these children that are born with two heads or are Siamese/conjoined twins usually--although not all the time--are born in countries like Bangladesh.

Glad the Rottweiler rescued the 2-year-old, usually we hear one of them killing a child but this is great.

Yes I know what you mean. I dont have any tattoos myself (far to chicken to endure pain), but my mates (roughly the same age as me ie 40 ish) have really old ones, done when they were like 18 or so ... some have had laser treatment, but it leaves really bad scars, some have had 'white pigment' tatooed over the previous ink ... which kinda looks a mess in all honesty, and they cant get a tan properly (not good anyway). But this looks semi-legit, as its been really featured over here in WhitDawg land in the last day.
Mind you ... look what happened to Big Foot ... every paper/wire/broadcaster followed that .... around the globe.

Yes Chris, its a nice story, for a change, for this breed. I guess that this was a well trained animal in sync with what its owner demanded from it. A decent ending prevailed for a change.

I got my tattoo (tribal that's wraps around my ankle like a bracelet) when I was 42. No regrets...because I chose it to look both feminine and dainty. I designed it myself and the tattoo artist did the work. The pain wasn't all that bad!

Wow ! I couldnt do it ... I know I cant ... my friend has just had a tribal tattoo done (5 months ago) all over his shoulder and down his arm ... its beautiful to look at ... but I couldnt stand the pain ... Ive seen it ... nope ! NOT FOR ME ! lol
... having said that ... hes built like a brick privy ... so probably didnt feel a thing !
Yours sounds nice, women in the UK have tribal bands around their arms above the elbow ... which are very popular. Not heard/seen anyone with one on the ankle. Nice.

That's the thing...tats aren't for everyone. Both of my sons have tattoos and my daughter wants to, but for her she's afraid that the pain would be too much. In fact, my oldest son does some of his own tattoos...and they are absolutely beautiful!

I have a friend who is a tattoo artist, and he too is an awesome artist, his work is superb ! He loves them and ... well ... is covered in them. He also does 'branding' (not sure if thats popular over there), and has many cool scars from that ... if you know what I mean ;-)
He has also split his tongue into 2 so he looks like he has a snakes tongue ! Freaked my kids out when he first did it though lol
Im afarid none of its for me ...

He certainly looks 'out there' I can tell you ! But, hes one of the nicest people I know.
Its kind of funny when we go for a beer or 10 ... and Im like the most geeky looking person youve ever seen ... spectacles, jumper, jeans, sneeakers etc ... and hes 'out there', with all his tattoos, piercings, massive punk blonde spikey hair etc. 'An unlikely friendship' is how we are mainly viewed lol

Nothing wrong with that at all. We, as humans have this fondness for judging people before we get to know them, and as this proves...it'd be the rwong thing to do!
