Science fan has Hawking's face tattooed on his leg



Science fan has Professor Stephen Hawking's face tattooed on his leg | Mail Online


Quote:
A science fan has had Professor Stephen Hawking's face tattooed on his leg - in tribute to the 66-year-old brainbox.
Jack Newton, 23, decided to have his right leg inked with the theoretical physicist's face after reading his best-selling book A Brief History of Time - even though he didn't understand a word of it.

The tattoo - complete with a Monty Python line from the classic Life of Brian film 'He's not the messiah. He's a very naughty boy' written underneath it - has already won two trophies at tattoo conventions.

You maintain an aloof intelligent exterior that we long to break through, but which might intimidate some men. It shows a complexity of personality that few possess. Based on these pictures, I am giving you an 8.4 on the official Trout Recreant Scale of Slutiness. You are a slut, but only in the best possible way, and any man lucky enough to see that side of you should count his blessings.

At first I thought it was odd that a man would tattoo himself with a homage to something he didn't even understand ...

But then I see so many people with tattoos of Egyptian, Chinese, and other characters and I have to wonder.

Why did Minnie Mouse get a tattoo of a dot-to-dot giraffe on her leg?

OK - the first person to get Trout's face tattooed on them with that same phrase get's $100.00 cash.
