I know a lot of people that have tattoos. Bill has two one is a wolf which I love and the other was a simple heart with a name on it, but he covered it up with an Eagle, but now it looks like a big blob of ink and I tell him it looks like a buzzard and his mother asked why he had a chicken put on his arm.

I’m thinking about getting a dream catcher on my lower arm, but haven’t decided on a design yet, but I’m worried about how crappy it might look in a few years and that I might want it removed. I personally love tattoos, but working with the public I would probably want it somewhere out of sight.

When you think about tattoo removal you usually think the only effective way is by laser, but that can be very expensive so I was considering getting some of that bleaching cream for Bill’s Buzzard to fade it out and maybe just have the body part redone until I read the press release below.

That stuff has something called Hydroquinone and it is known to cause skin cancer and I had no idea and I also didn’t know that there was a proposed ban by the FDA. I found out that it’s banned in a lot of countries. Good thing you can find good information on the internet.

In the press release below it talks about a product that is used for chemical peels and it’s been around a very long time so I know that stuff would be safe and effective for fading. You can find out more about it at the link above if your thinking of having a tattoo removed and haven’t known what your options might be. More and more professionals are wanting to get rid of tattoos they got when they were young and didn’t care how their image looked back then.

InkBusters.com Press Release
Headline: FDA bans Tattoo Removal Creams?

San Diego - With the launch of it’s new website, Inkbusters.com warns the public about possible health risks associated with using tattoo removal creams purchased on the Internet. The new site states “many” tattoo removal creams sold online contain Hydroquinone, which is usually the active ingredient in skin bleaching creams.

In August 2006 the FDA proposed a ban on over the counter skin bleaching creams containing Hydroquinone due to concerns about Cancer and Exogenous Ochronosis. This proposed ban is similar to those already enacted in Japan, France, Great Britain and Australia for the same reasons.

InkBusters.com CEO Rick Barker notes, “Indirectly—and probably without knowing it—the FDA is saying they think the tattooed public may be at risk if they use tattoo removal creams containing Hydroquinone. This is particularly true when you consider most skin bleaching cream makers––prescription or OTC––never recommend Hydroquinone be used more than 4-6 months for maximum effect. Many tattoo removal cream makers online offer supplies well beyond this recommended period.”

InkBusters.com sells TCA at its website to help consumers remove tattoos in a natural non-laser fashion. TCA is a popular non-prescription skin-peeling agent commonly used by doctors, health spas and private individuals to remove fine lines, wrinkles and acne scars on the face. TCA has twice been medically tested and proven to fade and/or remove tattoos on the body. TCA looks and feels like water and is applied with a q-tip. There is no Hydroquinone in TCA.

I’ve noticed my traffic has gone way down within the last 2 weeks even though I am a member of several social sites and leave comments here and there. I am beginning to think I must be a very boring person even though I am never bored, well seldom. I am debating the horrible idea of looking for a part time job just so I can be around the living.

I love staying at home though so it’s probably just a passing thought. I am such an ambitious-less person right now. I seldom work on my other sites since I took up blogging and that’s unusual, although I have been working pretty hard on my Beauty Denominator blog researching reciprocity rules and regulations for other states and other related cosmetology information.

There is so much I want to add to that blog and sometimes it’s hard to concentrate on this one, but I manage. I am really hoping to see at least a page rank soon on that blog if Google ever gets around to me and I hope I’m not going to be disappointed. I do need to start building some links for both these blogs though. If anyone has a related blog or site I would love to exchange links even though I’m told links really don’t have any value unless they are related, one way links and God forbid you don’t want to buy them.

It feels like the Internet has turned into a Gestapo state with everyone narking on everyone else, it’s a pity. Don’t you people think Google has enough control as it is. I have site-wise disclosure so I do believe Google will find that all by themselves. I do believe there is a definite revolt coming soon against the big G people are already switching to other search engines to make a point, but will it really matter? I have no clue because I’m clueless when it comes to that sort of thing.

This started as a simple post not sure why I derailed on the Google thing. I’m allowed to have an opinion even if I don’t know diddily squat though. Some people have told me that the page rank really doesn’t matter much anymore, but who knows what matters with them other than the fact that they seem to be a monopolizer of paid links and do not de-rank sites that deserve it, like the scraper sites. Ok enough of what I think.

When I saw this idea of the time capsule I thought wow how cool if I could leave something like that to my great grandchildren at least they would know what I want them to know and not something my son likes to make up and hand down. It could be something very personal just for them. How much fun I could make it would be up to me and my imagination. I love looking at old pictures and letters and poems and trying to imagine the way things might have been.

Each time capsule holds as much as 60 minutes of music, 500 pictures, 60 minutes of mobile phone video or 15 minutes of video and also 5% of the purchase price goes to charity which is cool and if you need more space you can purchase more. The idea of having something of me that will be able to be seen 100 years from now is intriguing.

You are able to keep adding to your capsule before it is buried for 365 days after your first log on and once your capsule is locked you can’t add or edit anything except your email details, you can update links though and change the date your capsule is buried until.

The http://www.the100yearwebsite.com/ works with the active management system that will ensure that they will be able to move along with new technology that will arise over the years. It sounds like they have everything covered to ensure all files will last for 100 years or whenever you decide you want it opened. It’s something unique to think about.
