Because I am now 50 years old and therefore I am not supposed to do it.
Because I have now done 6 Iroman races so I think I am allowed an M Dot symbol.
Because it recognizes the evil vs. good which is the dichotomy my life, challenged by both HIV and triathlon.

New Tattoo
And because I will do anything to get a week off from Masters Swimming. Hey, the coach approved it!

I really like your tattoo. It is a great, creative design. And I know what you mean about doing stuff at 50. I keep considering a nice diamond ear stud.
Thanks very much Al. I never picture you as a man of bling but hey, you always continue to surprise me. Go for it dude!
Very nice. Finally a unique M-dot tat.
Thanks Bill. I was kinda reluctant to get an M Dot tattoo since it really does symbolize a brand rather than long course triathlon. But I did cave when I realized how recognizable the M-dot symbol really is.
holy shit–you have no idea how similar ours are!!!
the other weird thing is that mine is also on my shoulder
Did you copy me?
LOL–NO!!! i predated you
