Did You Know...?

...that the word TATTOO was first described by Captain James Cook in 1769, after the tapping sound made by the tattoo needle on the skin.  In the native tongue of the Polynesians Capt. Cook observed, the sound of the needle is known as tatau or simply tatu.
So, now you know!
Thanks to The Rock for showing us his ink.
