Tattoos/Jesse James thing

I LOVE tattoos! I think they're awesome and beautiful and amazing. BUT! There ARE some exceptions as to what I like.

1. I DO NOT like face tattoos OF ANY SORT! If you have a face tattoo, you are AUTOMATICALLY unattractive to me and you should just stay the FUCK away from me. =]
2. I don't really like a whole lot of black and grey tats. Some are okay, especially if it's like a portrait or something. But too much b&g is too much. I like colors. Colors pop and make the tat look unbelievable.
3. You having TOO MANY tats is really ugly. Like if you have a whole chest piece, that's not hot. A very good example would be Trace Cyrus. That chest piece COUPLED with his FACE tats is WAY too much and makes him ugly. =] I do, however, like SMALL pieces. Like tats ABOVE your boob area. Those look nice. And maybe a few tats on your stomach, but NEVER an ENTIRE chest/torso piece.
4. Tats on the hands, I'm on the fence. Some look amazing while others look really stupid. As far as the fingers go, I'm alright with those. It's the back of the hand I'm iffy about. ESPECIALLY the palm. WTF?! Why would you want a tat on you PALM?! It makes no sense.
5. Tats on your armpits. Really? What the FUCK is the point of having a tattoo ON YOUR ARMPIT!?! o_O I see NO logic behind those and I think they're kinda stupid. =] Even if the tat's really awesome looking, to me it's gonna be a little dumb and I'm most likely NOT gonna like it. =]

But yeah. Those are my tattoo exceptions. Basically anywhere else is fine with me. Even the neck AND feet. Especially cuz I want tats on my neck and feet. =]



The reason as to WHY the whole Jesse James incident will be in this post is because I think that the SLUT he "cheated" with DOES have some nice tats. He has awesome tats as well.
(the reason cheated is in " is cuz we don't know for SURE that anything actually happened. Some out there say that she actually got PAID just to say that. One estimate was that she got paid $30,000. And I for one don't go with the flow and automatically believe that he cheated. Though, if he did, he needs to get hit upside the head with a 2x4. Sandra Bullock is awesome. 'Nuff said.)

I do, however, don't like some of her tats. One of which IS ON HER ARMPIT! It's of a brass knuckle. Really?! ON YOUR ARMPIT?! wtfever. It's hideous. ALSO! She has a TAT ON HER FACE that says "Pray for us sinners". REALLY?! Is that REALLY on your fucking FOREHEAD?! o__O
She has two identical tats on her lower stomach that look like Day of the Dead-esque tats. They look beautiful. She also has a large back piece that looks stunning. I believe it's a dragon with some flowers and flames. Beautiful. Though she also has two big flowers on her ASS that transcend from her lower back, onto BOTH her ass cheeks and a little bit down the back of her thighs. I'm not a huge fan of where they're placed, but they do look pretty.
Aside from the Day of the Dead tats on the lower stomach, she has a few that go up. I'm not a huge fan of those. They look pretty, but not a fan. She also has two large flowers on either side of her chest as well as a Heart lock between her boobs. I'm not a fan of that AT ALL. I'm not a huge fan of tats that go between your boobs. It might look cool sometimes, but, in the end, NO.
She also has little stars on MOST of her fingers. Meh. They're not that awesome. She also has tats on her hands. Also, not awesome. Her entire right arm is a BEAUTIFUL colored sleeve. Her left arm isn't so pretty. It's just bits and pieces that aren't connected. On the lower half of her left arm, she has Cheetah spots. Those look way dumb.


Now, as for Jesse James, I haven't seen all of his tats. But of the ones I HAVE seen, they look awesome. AND! They're COLOR! ;D
The one(s) that I like most are the ones on his wrists. They're of his first 2 kids' names; Chandler and Jesse Jr. Though I'm pretty positive that the Jr part isn't actually on the wrist; just Jesse. His kids names are Old English in some flames. They look really cool. On his right arm, he has a awesome looking skull. He DOES, however, have tats on his hands. They're colorful, but in the end, not all that attractive.
Also on his arms, from what I can see, he has: a set of praying hands, a dragon, some flames, an Octopus, Nautical star, a bike chain (on Octopus) and some other tats. I can't see the ones that are under his shirt.

Egyptian Sphinx

While growing up and even still today, my favorite civilization of all time are the Ancient Egyptians. I conclude that it's because we basically know nothing of their civilization, their culture, things like that. We know some, but not most. We know of what buildings they have created, but still, not all of them. Concerning the great architectural designs they have made, we only know about 10% of all buildings. Why? Because of the sand. The desert has taken back what it originally owned. The sand has covered everything back up.
In fact, for centuries upon centuries, no one knew what the Sphinx was; what was under the sand, what the body looked like.
It was only until the early 1920's that the entire Sphinx, for the first time in over 3,000 years, was completely uncovered. Even today, we don't know who built it; we have a general idea. But for some, it's not the truth. This includes me.
Most archaeologists believe that it was built by Khafra, sometime between 2555 - 2532 BC. There is, however, no agreement on the date of his reign. Some authors say it was between 2558 BC and 2532 BC. Some authors believe it to be much earlier than that; 2520–2494 BC.

About the age of the Sphinx, being built between 2555 - 2532 BC is the most accepted timeline. Though, because of the theory of water erosion on the Sphinx, some think it much older than that; that it's at least 5,000 years old. This would mean that it was built pre-dynastic times (before 3100BC). The Egyptologists who put the building of the Sphinx during the reign of Khafre reject the Water Erosion theory. Saying that it was because of Acid Rain or even the poor quality of the Limestone that caused the erosion.

The Sphinx is missing it's nose. There are several theories as to why it's missing. The earliest mention of it's nose missing is by a Historian from the mid 1300's. He said that the Egyptian-Arab ruler of that time was mad that the people were giving offerings to the Sphinx and so he broke it off. He was then hung for vandalism. Another theory is that French ruler Napoleon's soldiers shot a cannonball at it and it broke. Though, sketches done by the Dane Frederic Louis Norden, made in 1737 and published in 1755, illustrate the Sphinx already without a nose. Most Egyptologists use these sketches to say that Napoleon's men couldn't have been the reason as to why the nose is missing.
In addition to the missing nose, a Ceremonial Pharaonic Beard is thought to have been attached, although this may have been added in later periods after the original construction. Egyptologist Vassil Dobrev has suggested that had the beard been an original part of the Sphinx, it would have damaged the chin of the statue upon falling. The lack of visible damage supports his theory that the beard was a later addition. Indeed, I do believe the beard to be an addition from a much later period. I believe, because the beard was a different color than the rest of the Sphinx, that it was an addition by a later Pharaoh.

The identity of the Sphinx is still a mystery. No one knows who it's of. In fact, no one knows for certain if it is any particular ruler. Indeed, because of the erosion to the face over the millennia, making conclusive racial identification is difficult. A forensic anthropologist, that used detailed measurements of the Sphinx, forensic drawings and computer imaging, concluded that Kharfe was not the model of the Sphinx.

There were also 3 passageways in the Sphinx; all lead to nowhere. One is near the Tail, another by it's hip and the final one between the front paws. Because they lead nowhere, it is still a mystery as to why they were made in the first place.
Another mystery is a supposed secret chamber underneath the Sphinx's paws. It was originally found in 1996 by using ultrasound from the surface. The last known investigation into this was done in 1998 and nothing more came of it. The investigations stopped because the Egyptologist in charge believed that the room was filled with water, or perhaps flooded, and was therefore potentially dangerous to the structure of the Sphinx if it was unearthed. Because of it, no one knows for certain what's in the chamber. There are several theories; some outlandish, some possibly true. One theory is that it holds important documents that predate the Egyptians; possibly around the time of Atlantis. Some believe that it's just documents that relate to Egypt because it was found in an Egyptian building. An outlandish theory is that it contains a Star ship of some kind and that is has something to do with Aliens.
I have two possibilities as to what the chamber contains. My first thought is that it contains Documents. Of what sort, I am unsure. Perhaps dating from the Atlantis time. My other thought is simply that there may be nothing in the chamber. Though, with today's technology, I believe that another scan of some sort may be possible as to figure out what may be in the chamber.


Our unknown knowledge of Egypt and the many wonders still to be discovered, are just a small part of why Ancient Egypt is my favorite Civilization. Maybe perhaps we are not supposed to know all of what Egypt was. Still, every year, we find something new, hidden in the Sands of Egypt.
