Hey All,

There I was driving home from taking my wife to work, and my favorite radio show came on , they were talking about Canada Day and what you have done in the past to show your respect to our great country.

I got on the air and told the story from 1991 when for 23$ and a pack of smokes I got a Canadian Flag tattooed on my arm, and in 2000 when I stood on a bar in Germany and sang the Canadian National Anthem, the host though these where pretty wicked sweet way to show tribute to Canada, I won a wicked double CD, a Tshirt, and 2 TICKETS TO THE MOLSON INDY in Toronto!!!!!! HOLY CRAP!!!! just before he was going to let me go, I asked to give a plug, the host said sure, and then I said it,
" TravelPunk.com, the place where all budget trav'las and packers should visit when going on or planning a trip." He said sweet, and I said thanx and that was it.

It was pretty wicket....I tell ya this is a great day!!!!! I LOVE CANADA!!!!

Forget that tpunk.com was mentioned on the air but you won indy tickets!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Your full of goodluck. Pluck one of your eyelashes out and send it too me so I can make a wish for myself. So what's the tatoo story?

hehe that's funny that you metioned the site on the radio. your wife must have thought you were nuts.

**Canadian Dude** · 07-02-2003, 06:09 AM

I have actually won 4 tickets, 2 last week and 2 this week....that almost 500$ in Indy tickets!!! and pit passes aswell...and just for the record. my wife thinks I am nuts ALL the time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

**travelpunk** · 07-03-2003, 04:09 AM

Dude, thanks for the plug! Congrats on winning the tickets too! what are you going to do with 4 tickets? Can you say...eBay$$$!

And Dio, a Travelpunk.com tattoo would look reeeeaaallly good on you, ya know. eh

? Yeah, that would be some good advertising

**Diorama** · 07-04-2003, 09:34 PM

tattoo..hmmm how much are you willing to pay me.

nah I wouldn't get one never mind. I don't really have a desire for a tattoo. Never found anything (or anybody for that matter!

) that I would want to have on me my entire life. I would only get a tattoo for something I was really passionate about (not a stupid butterfly or anything like that)..mabye my childrens/husband name, something canadian (hey i'm patriotic!), or mabye a couple words that inspire me? BUt haven't found anything as of yet.

**Canadian Dude** · 07-04-2003, 10:16 PM

I have 4 tats, I don't regret them at all, they are ones I new I would not regret. I new guys that were doing stupid shit like the Red Hot Chilli Peppers logo on thier arm and Guns and Roses Rule, and like tear drops on thier face....I can tell ya one thing, those guys are not as cool any more!!!!! LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLhahahahahahahahahahaha

**travelpunk** · 07-04-2003, 10:48 PM

hahaha

:D or Prince, the symbol, the artist :P !
Yeah, I don´t know about doing the tattoo thing either. Maybe something like a Yin & Yang sign, or a cross. Or something original across my one ab that says "THUGLIFE"

here´s 2 words for you, Dio- Travel PUNK

**llemus7** · 07-07-2003, 07:46 AM

I will also never get a tatoo at all. Don't have nothing against them just wouldn't get one.

Good suggestion for dio TP.

**travelpunk** · 07-09-2003, 03:38 AM

Hey llemus, judging by the "pic post" topic on the other forum, I think she´s more likely to tattoo your name :D

Scored another plug today for Travelpunk.com, a radio show ( I listen to alot of talk radio) was talking about your favorite web sites, I got on and gave huge props to Travelpunk.com and the peps who are on the boards, I got to talk about the site for like 3 minutes..its was sweeeeet!!!

**AdamTheCultured** · 12-08-2003, 06:27 PM

Damn man!!! EH TONY! I think you got yourself a bonified endorsment manager!!!

**Sijuki** · 12-08-2003, 07:47 PM

CD, you are wild crazy man. I think you should be the Promotional Guy. Next will be the sponsorship or a booth at some event. :D Good Job CD!

Columbia · 12-08-2003, 08:32 PM

JEEBUS do you do this kinda thing for a living!? And talk about luck 4 tickets? 4!?

I don't think I'd ever get a tattoo I don't even have my ears peiriced...not that I hate needles, I just don't like regretting stuff. I know a girl who got a tattoo of some black design thing around the outer rim of her ear. That's gonna look real good when she gets older and cuts her hair short and has to see it every day. If I got anything it'd be some celtic cross or knot, maybe the mercury symbol, or some other alchemy sign

**joanofarc** · 12-09-2003, 09:05 AM

i got the symbol closest to the top of the page tattoed on my back when i was 19. i still believe in what it represents, but i wish i hadn't tattooed it onto my body. i have two tattoos, i don't really care for either of them - just that they are cheesy. i mean, my boyfriends friend is a tat-artist and he does some really great shit. i could have made a more tasteful decision.

i also had three peircings, which i grew out of - whatever that means - damn, i was a silly teenager.

**Mocassin** · 12-09-2003, 09:12 AM

Yeah, I don't have a tattoo because I can't decide what to get...I would like it to have an important meaning for me...A friend of mine who is a Judo Master has 'Judo' in some Kanji sings tattooed at the back of his shoulder, and I think it's great...When I see an old man with a tattoo I think it's pretty cool! ahahah!

I had my bellybutton pierced 3 years ago and I still love it...It has a meaning for me...And if I get tired of it, I just pull out the barbel...

**Sijuki** · 12-09-2003, 11:20 AM

I have never tattoo'd or pierced myself. I'm not much into piercings at all, but I would get a tat if I knew of something I wanted. If I was artistic I would probably draw something up, but since I am not it would have to be something clever. Oh well my time will come. :D Probably when I am drunk.

However, speaking of piercings, I have a friend who pierced his dick. He loves to show everyone. He has no care where he is he will pull it out and clang it on whatever he can find. It's disturbing.

**travelpunk** · 12-10-2003, 11:52 PM

i don´t think that I could ever desecrate my flesh like that....it´s permanent

!

CD, Thanks for plugging us all over the airwaves for 3 minutes! Saaawwweeeeeet!!! Dude, YOU RAWK! B)
