In 2003 my cousin and I went to the Daytona Beach Spring Rally. While we were there, we decided to get our first tattoos. We were staying over next to Orlando, so we had about a 180 mile round trip ride each day. I got my tattoo first. My cousin was too sunburned to get his the same day, so he would wait until the next day, and get one. Since it was our first tattoos we didn't know very much about taking care of them, the artist that gave me my tattoo told us that a new tattoo had to be kept moist. They make this stuff called Tattoo Goo, but it's about 15 dollars an ounce. The tattoo artist said any un-fragranced lotion did just as well. He recommended Lubri-derm.
On our way from Daytona to Orlando we stopped at a Wal-mart type store to grab something to eat, some beverages, and a bottle of Lubri-derm. It was about fifty five degrees that day and raining. We hadn't shaved in a couple of days and were in full leathers; jacket, chaps, etc. Of course the Lubri-derm was in the same aisle as the ladies cosmetics. You get the picture.
We located the Lubri-derm and started discussing what size to get. I picked up a large bottle, turned to my cousin and said " we might as well get a big bottle so it will last us all week". I noticed an odd look on his face and turn to see a woman with a small child down the aisle staring at us. Just as our eyes meet, she grabbed her child by the hand, and that poor little girls feet never touched the ground until they were out sight.
Needless to say we found it quite amusing. We finished our shopping, and got in line. You will never guess who was one aisle over. The lady and her little girl, eyeing us suspiciously. I told my cousin that I was going to say something to her. He said, "Just shut up, pay for the stuff, and let's get out of here".
Have a nice ride, and keep the shiny side up.
