Really, Kav. Why would I send a letter to Bill Watterson for the sole
purpose of saying, "Gee, there's this guy on the Internet who thinks
it's, like, rilly, rilly BAD that I have a tattoo of your characters
on my leg and, like, it's copyright INFRINGEMENT, and, like would it
be okay if you'd, like, give me permission to have the tattoo because,
hey, laser surgery is rilly expensive and I heard it hurts a lot,
too."

And I never said I won't ask, but rather maybe I will or maybe no. No?
Get a grip, copyright ranger.

Can you get a grip? Is that possible?

I figured as much. ;o) Oh, wait, you weren't answering my question.

Oh, so you asked him already? Well, that's unfortunate. I guess I can
wear knee socks when he's around.

Ethics are not currently part of the art curriculum, Kavin. But,
thanks for considering the students' welfare, pal.

Depends on what you get caught doing.

Random acts of kindness are always nice. And, typically, they're not
considered theft if someone catches you in the act.

Hth.
