cus. Fans constantly flock to these elec-
tronic space games, which thrive on a
steady diet of quarters. This upstairs
shop has four or five little cubicles filled
with "wizardrous" machines. The
crazy space sounds compete
energetically with piped-in music of

Ardner, owner of the shop. As I walked

You can choose from about 5,000 dif-

designs with the words "I love you,
Mom and Dad" to skulls bearing swor-

having a tattoo- is about as painful as
pulling out a hair.
About 80 percent of his customers are
women, who have tattoos put "just
about anywhere." He said he tries to
talk customers out of having tattoos put
on their hands, face or feet. When tat-

Main Street don't look in.
John has 100 tattoos on his own body.
