Tattoos

The television show M*A*S*H had two quotes about tattoos that pretty much sum up my opinion.

“Why would you want to hang something on your body that you would never hang on your wall?”

“Tattoos are the poor man’s way of investing in art.”

I don’t understand the general subject matter of tattoos. What’s with all the devils, skulls and dragons? Just once I would like to see a beautiful mountain scene with a river running through it. A guy standing in the middle of the river, fly rod in hand with an enormous trout flying through the air on the end of the line.
