TV Show: how to Brand

Thurs. night, on one of the few channels not yet devoted to Poker Tournaments, there was a show about branding, tattoos, and piercing.

Several Omegas, each with big decorative Omegas on their arms, showed how they were made by bending a coathanger and heating it with a blowtorch. Seemed very simple, and the brands were professional looking - if you like that kind of stuff.

The Omegas repeatedly said it was not hazing, since they all wanted it done.

The story continued, showing branding artists who heated a metal piece, and then used the piece to create body designs.

I think a great income-generating business in the future (probably in the Microsoft class) will be tattoo removal. Currently in the local alternative newspaper tattoo ads outnumber tattoo-removal ads about 10 to 1, so there's plenty room for growth.
