And he’ll tell you all the lies he can in order to get into your pants. No guarantees about how large his “nose” will grow…

Michael Newman, 60, an Aviation Technical School teacher, from Plainfield, Indiana, shows off his Pinocchio tattoo to the judges during the National Tattoo Association Convention in Cincinnati, Ohio April 14, 2012.  Newman started late in life getting tattoos but has made up for lost time, having between 600-700 hours performed on him, costing around $50,000. Winning about 60 awards, mostly in the ‘Unique’ category, over the past 7 years, he claims his Pinocchio tattoo is always a “crowd favourite.”   Picture taken April 14, 2012.     REUTERS/Jason Reed  (UNITED STATES – Tags: SOCIETY)
