Marked for Life

Lee Williams, 23, a student at Michigan’s Wayne State University, proudly sported a tattoo on his forearm that read “Villain”. At least he used to be proud, until a friend pointed at it and started to laugh: the word was misspelled “Villian”. Williams is now suing Eternal Tattoos for $25,000 in damages, including $1,900 in plastic surgery to have the tattoo removed. (AP) ...“I really feel like an dumbie,” Williams said afterward in a letter to his mother.
