Fun Day Contest!

Before anybody gets too excited, I'm sorry, but people who know me personally are officially, hereby disqualified from this week's contest. It would just be too easy.

I posted this picture on Friday without thinking about the fact that you might not recognize the graphic. Then I was asked, and decided not to answer, because I was sure somebody out there would know. Thirteen comments later, here we are, still answerless, so I've decided to turn it into this week's MONDAY CONTEST.

This...


... is an actual tattoo I have somewhere on my body (none of your business). Got it in 1991. Copied it off a t-shirt. Dude only charged me $25 for it, because he'd never done one before (I'd be willing to bet he hasn't since) and he thought it was hysterical.

Can you tell me what it is?

You can follow the link above to Friday's post to get caught up to speed on all the guesses so far, but I will give you one more hint: I have admitted to it, and posted a link to the inspiration for it, in the past. But no, I will not be providing that link to you today.

You're playing for a poem this week, which will be inspired by you and the tattoo-subject, and which I will post in this space on Wednesday morning.

As always, if you don't know the answer, feel free to make a silly guess. If nobody gets the right answer, then the silliest guess will win the prize.



I won't be back at this computer until after 6:00 tonight, so please, people who know me in real life, don't ruin the surprise. Even if somebody gets it, don't give it away. But feel free to make silly pretend guesses!

I still think it's a musical staff/staph infection...

or something related to the Partridge Family.

Dang it, I suddenly figured out that it's the Partridge family -- Partridge Family Album cover, to be exact -- but someone has already posted that.

Oh, well.

Awww crap. Looks like I killed the contest. I realized a half-second after clicking the "publish" button that I shouldn't have mentioned what could be used to verify my answer. Now I'll NEVER get another poem written for me. Sorry!!!!!!!

Yeah, see, this is why I don't like doing "tell me the correct answer" contests anymore, because then once somebody gets it, it kills the fun for everybody else.

I only did it this time because this stupid thing sat there for three days and nobody had a clue. It never occurred to me it would be solved within twenty minutes of me declaring it an official Contest!

RT (nee ILU) you must really dig my skanky poems -- or else you just want to hear me say I think I love you....
