Tattoo artists?
Where's a good place, preferably near downtown, to go for a tattoo? It's my first (be gentle!) and I don't have a clue who is good and who is a hack artist. Any input is welcome...

Found this on the BBC's website
I was doing my usual morning news rounds and found this article on BBC.co.uk. It seems to call for bloggers everywhere to unite and call for the release of two imprissoned bloggers in Iran. Has anyone heard about this? This is the first mention of it I've found.

Thanks!

Remember that job posting I put up two weeks ago or so? Those of you that I replied to will be getting a call within the next 2 days - we are interviewing people this week.

And to the person that was called for an interview this morning at 8:00am? Showing up would have been a good idea. (I don't know your DP name - but I do know that you sent in a resume. Sorry! Sprite Ice = Slimem88 ;)

Can any one show me some organizations (or foundations) to help support teen pregnancies in the local area? That are non profit as well. I am doing a community project to find foundations to help support and I am having trouble locating some on the web. Websites would of organizations would help out a lot! but anything helps.

Thanks

Spanish in Mexico
Does anyone know of a good place to study Spanish in Mexico? Names, URLs, etc. I would really appreciate it! Also, post if you have one that you don't recommend. I need spanish to graduate and I don't want to sit through 2 years of classes and still not be able to speak it. Thanks!

Oh crap
The Supreme Court is going to hear a challenge to Oregon's Death with Dignity Act.

This pisses me off to no end, especially considering that this is only continuing because Ashcroft filed the appeal on the day he resigned at Attorney General. He's fucking with our progressive state from beyond the political grave. Bastard.

Jewelry
Anyone interested in some 14g studs for zee lip?

I have one with a red spike, one with a clear bead, one with a whole set of surgical steel adornments of all shapes. I think I've got a round, hexagonal, spike, and another kind of roundish one just for that stud.

I bought these not too long ago and discovered, however unfortunately, that a stud is much too painful to wear in place of my ring. Thus, I've sterilized all of the studs, and said adornments, and am looking to get rid of them. Each one cost me over $15. I'd like $8 for the first two, $10 for the one with the extra goodies. If you need pictures, let me know, and I'll get some up when I get home.

Edit: pictures behind the cut, sorry they're bad

piercing jewelry help!


okay, I had to take out my nose stud, now it is gone. I'm SICK the last time I was sick and my stud was out overnight it closed up enough that I had to have my piercer almost re-pierce it (it was enough that I couldn't just force the jewelry through). simply, I need a new stud this afternoon. but I am too sick to get there, much less can I afford the prices of the jewelry there. is there anywhere downtown or close in that has good, well priced nose studs?

"I have no idea what that is...let me transfer you" That was the answer I got 6 times after speaking to 6 different people - - - SIX! Finally, the last guy said "Oh yea...only sold in Canada...can't buy it anywhere else"

Jerks - apparently no one who works at coke knows what Sprite Ice is.

But I've drank it before! I've bought it before! Ergh....I gu
