I'm not sure if i'll be able to finish my tattoo with all this exposure that Phuc is getting. I don't know if he'll be able to squeeze me into his schedule. His phone is ringing off the hook for autographs. First of all, the September issue of International Tattoo Art Magazine is officially out. Then, he's interviewed in Sunday's edition of the Portland Press Herald. Granted, the interview for the Portland Press was about Star Wars, but exposure is exposure. If the dragon doesn't get done, I'm blaming all this popularity. Just kidding. You deserve it all. But, this is still a priceless picture.

So, in my own defense, I have to say that I do not play with my toys! Also, before the interview, I had decided that I did not want to “pose” with my toys! So when the photographer asked me to take down some Star Wars collectibles for him to photograph, I obligingly did it, and then – CLICKETY CLICKETY CLICK!- he started taking candids. What was I supposed to do? I didn’t want to pull a Sean Penn and have them run a photo of me apoplectically punching the camera, so I demurred… and here you have a photo of me and my miniature Darth Vader helmet, which does separate into three pieces so that you can see the inside of the helmet! How sweet is that?!?!?!?!

That's actually pretty sweet!!!
