A grandfather in Florida recently lost custody of his grandchildren after allowing his 10-year-old grandson to get a permanent tattoo as a rite of passage. Jeez, what comes after that? Cigarettes and hard liquor?
I stand proudly un-inked. I don't fault anybody that is. I've just never been so committed to something I'd want to brand myself forever. Not even my daughter or beloved Dallas Cowboys rate that kind of commitment. But a tattoo cell phone accessory? I might have to reconsider.
