Where Aren't They Now: 5

Christian grew up in a tattoo parlor; his mother (Vivian) was a skilled tattoo artist and his father (Buck) acted as her human canvas at trade shows and conventions around the nation. By the time Christian was 18 years old, Buck was completely out of room on his body and Christian happily stepped up.

At the first tattoo session, Vivian drew some sketches of what she had in mind for her son. Christian, however, had other ideas and produced a tattered list that he'd been carrying around since he could write. Christian's wish list, as seen illustrated on his body in most tattoo magazines, is as follows:

--A flamingo riding a horse riding a shark, all animals wearing Blu Blockers

--A tribute to the band The Spin Doctors

--A snake with a skull head shooting pool with a priest (Catholic)

--The Disney castle being blown up by an F-14

--Serpico

--The full lyrics to Lynyrd Skynyrd's "That Smell"

I love the list of tattoos. I laughed so hard that I may have scared the neighbors...
