No, we don't have to make this shit up. They just keep doing it for us...
Kerra Fowler is a mother of four who decided to wear her opposition to President Bush on the back of her head. She offered up on eBay her shaved skull for an anti-Bush message and received a tattoo of a large W, complete with a cowboy hat, with a red slash across it after a sympathetic buyer bid $103.50.
Her kids must be so proud.
Fowler, 29, said she placed her eBay advertisement with an opening bid of one penny after seeing two others offering to sell space on their heads for tattoos backing Democratic candidate John Kerry.
Kerry: The Choice of Shaven Head Women With Tattoos On Their Heads. "I'm John Fn Kerry and I approved this message."
"One wanted 10 grand and the other, $30,000," she told The Herald-Times of Bloomington for a story Tuesday. "So I thought, that isn't right, to say you believe in something and then charge $30,000. I thought that was audacious."
...whatever "audacious" means. I heard it on "Oprah" once. Or was it "Jerry Springer"?
Fowler said the winning eBay bidder asked her not to get the tattoo. But she went through with it after she and her husband, Jeremy, came up with the design with a tattoo artist in Bedford, some 20 miles south of Bloomington.
I think she just wanted a tattoo on her head and some idiot bankrolled it for her. And another quick question. Does mom have a ...ummmmmmm... job?
Fowler did accept the money, gave half to the tattoo artist and used the rest to buy beer, pay part of a bill and buy a gift for her children.
Now there's one of Kerry's hard core constituents... |
