no. when I was in the Corps, where it's relatively traditional to get a tat, my command was "tat-free", and ANYONE who got one got transfered to the 1-9.
After Vietnam, there were a couple of times I ended up somewhat inebriated and in tattoo parlors to finally get one...but changed my mind at the last minute.
My wife and I have talked about getting one a couple of times when we were on Maui, but at my age, it'd be like Picasso painting on wrinkled canvas...;)
/me remains tat-free...

I have one. I might get another one day, but I'm pretty perticular about what I want and make sure what I get I'll be happy with for life. What do I have now that I know I'll be happy with for life? I have the word 'shoulder' in Japanese/Kanji on my shoulder. Stupid, but I like it. :p It fits my personality.

You'll still have the same memories and experiences. For me, tattoos are a way to remember a time of my life worth remembering

No tatoos, no piercings here either. No jewelry of any kind, either. Someday maybe, but not now.

no piercings, don't want any... and no tattoos currently, but will get at least 1, possibly 2.... both would be patriotic themed, one possibly relating to army service (that will be at least a few years down the road.. i may get the first one in a couple years)
