The Lion Tattoo
In a certain city it was the tradition for men to have tattoos, and one day, a young man went to his barber to get his first tattoo. "Make it a lion, a great, brave heroic lion," he ordered. "Put it on my shoulder blade so that I will have this lion at my back all the time."
The barber got out his needles and inks and began, but the man was soon howling in pain. "What part is that you are drawing?"
"The tail," answered the barber.
"Never mind the tail," said the man in a shaky voice. "I don't need the tail."
The barber resumed, but soon enough the man was howling again. "What part is that?"
"The stomach," said the tattoo artist.
"Leave that off, just do the important part," the man wailed.
As you might guess, the man was soon screaming once more. "Now what part is that?"
"The ear, sir," said the barber.
"I don't need the ear!" sobbed the man.
The barber threw down his inks and needles and kicked the man out. "Whoever heard of a lion with no tail, stomach, or ears?"
