Bruckheimer was also responsible for shows “Cold Case”, “Without a Trace” and most notably “CSI”. “CSI” is one of the most profitable long running syndicated shows of all time. JBTV’s portfolio is second to none. Atlanta’s Most Wanted is the highest profile sales since JBTV took its exit from Warner Brothers. This show has great potential, with great minds behind it.

No matter what your parents may have said about body art growing up, most people reach adulthood knowing the truth, tattoos are cool. They can be a very strong form of self expression, one more powerful than simply slapping on a pin or walking around with a vague slogan on your jacket. They can also just be pretty cute or just plain awesome. Some people just pick something they think is neat and get it done, while others toss and turn for months trying to decide on the perfect design. Hopefully in the end, you wind up with something you’re happy with, even proud of. But some people don’t get quite what they asked for, or realize too late that maybe they should have just gone with a flower or a bird. Here are some of those people.
