Man to Remove Romney Face Tattoo

-
By Sarah Parnass | ABC OTUS News – 21 hrs ago
Two weeks after telling ABC News he did not " regret the tattoo at all " the man who got the Romney 'R' logo tattooed on his face for an eBay bid of $15,000 has changed his mind.
"I had a little change of heart," Eric Hartsburg confessed, saying he will now have the tattoo removed.
Hartsburg said he could live with touting the logo of a losing candidate, but what pushed him over the edge were Romney's comments that President Obama won the election by giving "gifts" to certain constituencies.
"I could deal with being a part of a losing campaign, but to still stand behind Gov. Romney with the positions he's taken post-election with the blame game instead," Hartsburg said. "To be such a sore loser about it, to me I can't walk around representing that."
The tattoo was meant to make politics more fun, Hartsburg said, but since Romney made those remarks strangers have been shouting lewd comments and hissing at Hartsburg on the street.
He said he could defend Romney's policies - not his post-election behavior.
The tattoo removal process could take up to 15 sessions over a period of six months to a year, longer than usual because of the blue ink in the logo.
Hartsburg has agreed to take up Will Kirby of Dr. TATTOFF on his offer to remove the ink for free. The Dr. TATTOFF website lists most removals as costing $98 per treatment.
Hartsburg said he found the removal process "a little terrifying," but he's more scared about the flight to Los Angeles, where he will have his first consultation with Dr. Kirby.
Hartsburg will be able to have subsequent sessions at offices around the country, so it won't slow down a professional wrestling career that he is hoping to transition into a role in the entertainment industry.
After all is said and done, Hartsburg hopes ditching the tattoo won't hamper his rise to fame, instead allowing him to "be more than just the tattoo face guy."

Bimbo’s Initiation: An Old Cartoon About Masonic Initiation

-

This short video from the 1930′s features beloved cartoon characters and is described on YouTube as “creepy” and “disturbing”. The cartoon is indeed very dark and bizarre but only minimal knowledge of Masonic symbolism is required to realize that the cartoon is all about secret societies and the ordeals an initiate must go through to be accepted. To the symbol-literate, it’s as blatant as it gets. Here’s the video. At the beginning of the cartoon, Bimbo (a good name for a non-initiate?) walks down the street without a care in the world. Suddenly, a certain cartoon character traps Bimbo down a manhole. Bimbo gets trapped...Mickey Mouse? Funny how this character is the recruiter that lead to Bimbo's forceful initiation. Is it a thinly veiled comment on Disney's Masonic ties? Bimbo then finds himself in the underground lair of a strange secret society composed of  masked men with candles on their heads (symbolizing illumination?). One a...
