I thought it'd be hers and hers.

That's for when you get married.  It will be on your  peg leg. :)

Caduceus?? Sorry, I'm from Norway..   :headscratch:

That is the symbol from Hipocrates, it is a dagger, point down with 2 serpents curling around it with their heads ending up toward each other at the top of the hilt.  It is the symbol the American Medical Association adopted and is the symbol doctors worldwide still use on their "shingle".  The Hipocratic oath originated with Hipocrates also and is "Above all, do no harm".  If only that were still true.

That is kinda the motto of my life.. Thanks for clearing up caduceus for me, never heard that word before.  :)

By the way, noticed your location is HELL. My location is close to Hell also, in Norway that is. We have a place here that is actually called Hell. ;)

Here is a pic from Hell railway station, where Gods gets expedited..  :devil

A little offtopic, but I just had to..  :P

Both have historical significance related to my genealogy. Our entire genealogy, of which I have a copy of that has been kept in the family for generations ,is well documented dating back to Scotland in 1497 primarily on my mothers side.

Long story short...see photos.

My artist, Jason, has 19 years experience and was mentored by the Legendary Tattooer Jack Rudy...thus the outstanding detail in his work.








No, I'm not into dungeons and dragons but am into historical significance of my proud genetic lineage.  :)
