Putting the "Ass" in "Hasslein Books"
A reader named JuliaApes2009 offered a followup comment to one of yesterday's posts (click here), noting, "i love pota and got the book [Timeline of the Planet of the Apes] as a gift when it first came out. i didn't even know about it my mom found it. i took the cover art and brought it to my tattoo guy. its my first one on my ass lol!!!--Jules"
Here's Julie's tattoo:
And here's the book's cover, from which this mASSterpiece originated:
Thanks for your cheeky enthusiasm, Julie... and for the view! I just hope we haven't been the butt of a joke here. What do our readers think? Photoshop or actual tattoo? (Wiseass cracks welcome.)
UPDATED: It turns out that the person who put the "ass" in "Hasslein Books" was, in fact, our very own Web designer, Steve Cafarelli, who punked us by posting a Photoshopped picture of an ape-enhanced woman's bottom, posing as the owner of said derriere. Unfortunately, I fell for it. But on the positive side, people took notice and visited the site. I guess an exposed female rear end will tend to do that.
Good job, Steve. Nicely played.
Jerk.

As the resident artist and photoshop expert, I'm naturally skeptical about images like this. I think it may be an early (or late) April Fool's joke. Still, I wouldn't mind getting my damned dirty paws all over it.... =)
Still... would have been better if she used this: http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8177/8023342804_bb6f913a5b_n.jpg
I vote Photoshop, too.
Either way, real or fake, it's hilariASS.
