			Last time round, I just posted the only pic I had on file, which was one I had of my son and I at my dad's funeral.  This time round, I want to actually do a theme pic, and was waiting on some stuff to arrive to make it work.  Now I just gotta wait for the sun to come out, and itll be up soon.  So be afraid...be very very afraid

	Menacing pic of you and your crew! Before you think about getting inked again, you might want to check out these guys and have a traditional Filipino design done that tells your story. http://members.asianavenue.com/apat_na_alon/ http://members.asianavenue.com/APAT_NA_ALON_2/ http://members.asianavenue.com/APAT_NA_ALON_3/ http://members.asianavenue.com/APAT_NA_ALON_1/ http://members.asianavenue.com/APAT_NA_ALON_4/ I'm considering it...but in VISAYAN style, of course   !Mark, I must have missed that South Park episode...you didn't happen to kill Kenny with that dha hmyaung            !
