Ha ! Ha! No doubt, you make a statement with that kinda thing. :chuckle:

And I must make a small quibble with semantics. When the Shaolin monks put hot iron to flesh they were branded not tattooed. :)

Da plane! Da plane!


Oh, wrong tattoo. :o ;)

Right, not that guy either ! :)

The only other 'movie' I have seen that features any sort of branding is "Reform School Girls" which was trashy and hilarious in the typical 80's sex-crazed teen-film genre.
One particular girl gets BRANDED on the bare butt-cheek by one of the 'senior' reform school inmates...it was hilarious.

Ha! Ha! When I described the Kung Fu branding scene as "bad-ass" I didn't mean it quite so literally.

I have a buddy that is about 15 years younger than me that is a biker and has LARGE areas of his anatomy covered by tattoos. He was very intelligent about it though in regards to employment...NONE of his art is visible if he wears a standard polo/golf style shirt.
Like myself, he is an engineer at a MAJOR automotive OEM and the powers that be in upper management tend to take a DIM VIEW at exposed 'body art' in the workplace.
I TRIED to convince him that BRANDING is the new latest he-man biker trend and he needed to go get literally branded at the nearest participating cattle ranch.
He unfortunately was UN-convinced although I continue to suggest it.

I love that show. Still have the DVD and watch the original movie once in a while. Would like to have all the episodes...

Highlight of the show is new characters Sportin' the Brand !
