I've become an entertainment correspondent for the all-new AM1300 KSET, the talk of Southeast Texas. I'll be frequently calling TC and Janna on the morning show, and you can hear me every Friday afternoon from one to two with John the Rocket Man, Teresa Hansen Burns, and producer Tom of the Golden Triangle Entertainment Today program. Check it out at AM1300 and on the internet at ksetlive. com.

Sunday through Wednesdays, 2 p. m. to 10 p. m. , and Thursday, Friday and Saturday, 2 to 2. These are becoming really commonplace. They're accepted by everybody in society, as you were telling me earlier that policemen get them, firemen, politicians. Judges, lawyers. Just about everybody. Gangsters. Anybody, anybody gets them now. And it seems Right. Well, it's becoming a way to express yourself, which is a good thing, I think. There's just so much. A lot of people now want me to do custom work instead of your flashets on the wall. Would rather do custom work. Original artwork. Right. Conty's really popular. Tribal's popular. I know all my guys just love doing tribal. Names are popular, which is another silly thing, but they do. In the last segment, Ryan was tattooing Heath Ledger's Joker image on Mark of Bea Good job, Mark. You took it Right. This guy's No pain at all? A little bit, but not too much. What is it about the Joker in you, Mark? I've just always been fascinated with the Joker, kind of what he represents, which most people would find kind of strange. Actually, Heath Ledger, I couldn't stand him until I saw that movie. And then he's just, honestly, he was a phenomenal actor. He was fantastic. Are you going to get another tattoo? What's the next one? What's the next one? The next piece I'm going to get is going to be a back piece. It's going to be a cross on my back, two snakes going around, wrapping around my arms. It's going to actually take a little while. I might pay you to put my logo on there somewhere. Can I rent out part of your body? I don't know about all that. What's your price? What's my price? I want it right here on your forehead. Wow. My logo. Your logo? I don't know. That might be, yeah, maybe a cool meal. I mean, that'd be pretty bad on the forehead. So what is it you Elite tattoos and body piercing? When I came over here, I'd already, Heidi, she's a piercer here. And I've known her for years. And so I came over here to get a tattoo, ran across Ryan, and it was going to be my first tattoo. And just saw someone just work, and after that I was kind of stuck with him. It was phenomenal. I haven't seen anything else around here to even compare to what he does. So, all right, man. Thanks. That's it. Hope you've enjoyed our visit to Elite Tat 2 and Piercing.
