I got an email today from a retailer informing me that it's "National Denim Day!"  Naturally, I googled it out of curiosity.  Not only is it not today, the international version of Denim Day is sad and depressing and the US version of Denim Day is only slightly less so.

Poison Heart? What was his name? Rode?

[Finkster]

Correct    @JCMx800  - it's from Rode / Poison Heart Tattoo

His Graffitistuff is cool  ( the Tattoos also ^^ )  …... but his Paintings & Woodworks (different layerings of painted woodpanels with gold leaf, etc. ..) are mindblowing!

@Chris:

It's from 2002 and much of the information is out of date.  Tex Coleman is semi-retired and has moved to Abilene, Maida's has closed, J.L. Mercer died and the shop closed, Rusty Franklin retired and sold his shop to Robert Brest (who makes great quality boots, by the way), M.L. Leddy only has their factory in San Angelo and runs all their sales out of the Ft. Worth store, and there are probably more changes that I don't know about right off the top of my head.

Well what can only be described as a roller coaster of emotions that started on Monday and finally ended in a emergency C section Thursday afternoon.
Baby Ethan arrived

Mum is a trooper
Dad is a emotional wreck
