I’m not really into tattoos. I don’t have one and I don’t plan on getting one. Why, I don’t know. Probably fear of pain. Also, I have lots of freckles and I feel like I don’t need any more body decor. My skin is already busy enough. But I am fascinated with people who get tattoos. How do they choose a design? Where should it go on the body? Do they ever get sick of it and want it removed? So it was with some interest that I read a recent blog post over at Martlet.ca, an independent weekly student newspaper at the University of Victoria in Canada. Student Will Johnson writes about his hippo tattoo in a post entitled, “Taking the tattoo plunge: an adventure.” Apparently Will is a huge hippo fan and even suspects that he may have been a hippo in a previous life. He identifies with the hippo so much that he had a giant one tattooed on his back. Read his article here.

If you know of others, please let me know. If you have a hippo tattoo you’d like to share, please send us a photo!
UPDATE:
Will has graciously agreed to let us use his picture to show you his tattoo. Thanks, Will!
