No Touch Monkey!

...About 50 people from the Midwest gladly forked over $300 to join the four-day Michigan search that ends Sunday. It was sold out, as are expeditions planned for Utah and New Mexico.

The Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization, a California group running the search, will add the audio recording to what it said are footprints, sightings and other mounting evidence from past expeditions.

"I'm not a believer. I'm a knower," said the group's president, Matt Moneymaker. "You've had to be in total denial to say that none exist."

At the very least, the big ape is a big draw.

When I was mentoring N_ for tattoo art last fall, I told him that he needed to develop his drawing skills before he ran out and got a tattoo gun. He said said he went down to this place to talk to them and they told him to go out and buy a gun as soon as he could and start practicing right away (totally eschewing the whole "get a book together and find a mentor to teach you the art and let HIM tell you you are ready" system). I'm not surprised.

However...it is the client's responsibility to make sure the transfer is correct before letting the needle touch skin, so really the final fault falls to the bonehead who received the tattoo.
