SPRING HILL, Fla., Aug. 22 (UPI) -- It took a while to get going, but 101-year-old Mimi Rosenthal now has her third tattoo, courtesy of a Florida tattoo artist.

This one went on her left arm, and next time she might get one on her butt, she said in an interview in the St. Petersburg (Fla.) Times.

I don’t understand the allure of tattoos...

[digger48]

What’d she get?

A tattoo of a Shar Pei?

[donhunt]

Probably tattooed the address for the “Pearly Gates” in case she forgets.

I would assume she is limited in her memory functions. Couldn’t this be construed as elderly abuse by the ones who set this up?

[Daffynition]

She has some catchin' up to do. You *GO* Grannie!

[shibumi]

Prunes.

[McLynnan]

Me either, guess I’m an old bat. Look at the tattoo artist. I ask you what is attractive about her arms?

[oldbrowser]

I don’t understand the allure of tattoos...

Tramp stamp

[Daffynition]

When you are 100+, I say you get to do damn well what you please!

[Keith in Iowa]

>>>>Tramp stamp

I saw one of those once. On a guy. Had a rectangle on his lower back with “TRAMP STAMP” in the middle of the box.

No, I’m not kidding.

Maybe granny’s next tattoo will be ruler markings on an inner thigh so she can be sure the ol’ men in the nursing home measure up...

[cableguymn]

or the bull ring in her nose....

[A message]

UGH.

Hey, there’s an idea! Alzheimer’s patients get tatoo’s of their name and address!

and while we’re at it, tatoo all illegal aliens as from Massachusetts and send them ‘home’!

[nmh]

Is THAT the only way she cab get attention?

YUCK!

[nmh]

Is THAT the only way she can get attention?

YUCK!

Everywhere I go, it seems I'm surrounded by tattooed carnival workers....

If these people, especially the women, knew how bad these tacky tattoos looked....

[nmh]

Judy's not bad per se, but I don't think I'd have her on my arm. I don't often watch her but I did find her amusing when I did.

LOL!!!

When the skin shrivels up, can you imagine what Judge Judy will look like?

[nmh]

I like what appears to be handcuffs. Nice touch!

LOL!!!!

What is going on with people?

[6SJ7]

Check out Granny's right hand. She's got alien fingers! There seems to be a "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" thing going on with her fingers. Granny is really a Gray!

[caww]

That is just ugly...

[Desdemona]

Never mind the old women, if guys knew how unattractive tattoos are, they might think twice.

[Daffynition]

I can't judge a centenarian ...I mean ...*really.*

Her next tatt should be bad@ss! ;)

[Kirkwood]

Wonder if her 130 year old parents grounded her?

[whence911]

After you reach 75, you should be able to do what you want. Law of surviorship. Do you think someone age 101 gives a good —— what you think about her tattoo?

[Daffynition]

What have you against *style*? *Fashion*? ;)

[timeflies]

Why don’t these grandmothers just invite the grandkids over and hand out the marker pens. It would be cheaper and keep the kids busy to.

[Daffynition]

Because kids scribble. ;)

[caww]

Not exactly a saintly figure....just plain ugly. But i suppose it conceals some of her sagging wrinkled skin. Might be why they are doing it..but the tatoos aren’t any better looking than aging skin.

[JoeProBono]

[mnehring]

The tattoo reads “you left your keys on the side table”.

[Daffynition]

Tattoos and implants ...they're forever. ;)

[Daffynition]

[caww]

Oh man....does that woman really think this is acceptable for her?....it takes all kinds to be fools.

[Slyfox]

And to think she is only 32 years old.

[stuartcr]

Or the one on her butt that says...”Please pay before pumping”

[RogueDeadGuy]

tattoos are disgusting

[Slyfox]

Probably the only GOOD reason to get tats.

Going Bald? Get Your Head Tattooed

A British firm is taking a disturbingly permanent solution to hair loss to the States
By MARIE C. BACA

Toupees. The combover. Now, a head tattoo? If a UK company has its way, men suffering from hair loss will turn to needles and ink to mask their baldness.

Birmingham, England-based His Hair Clinic uses what it describes as "a mild form of medical tattooing" to simulate the look of shaved or closely cropped hair. The company announced via its blog that representatives will travel to San Francisco and Florida this summer to market the technique.

The procedure, which His Hair Clinic calls "hair follicle replication," takes three hours to complete and requires an additional follow-up session. Clients shave or cut their hair in order to blend the tattoos with their natural follicles.

Lotta Pictoria tattooed by Charles Wagner, NY, NY, 1920s. Right: Artist Unknown, 1950s.

[Daffynition]

Through the ages, people paid to see this phenom...

[Verginius Rufus]

Me either.

Now she can't give blood for a year. She should have thought about that.

The “tramp stamp” on the lower back in the pandandle of Florida is called a “Panama City license plate”.

Go granny. Not a fan of tattoos, but what the hell?

[Hot Tabasco]

The first two are now stretched beyond recognition...

[Col Freeper]

... and next time she might get one on her butt, ...

LOL,

Woman (looking in mirror): "Why did you tattoo a large raisin on my butt?"

Tattoo Artist: "What are you talking about, I tattooed a large grape on your butt, just like you asked me to."

[Moltke]

I doubt many of Mrs. Rosenthal's peers would like a second tattoo.
