The interesting part was the little boy, perhaps 6 years old, who stood before him and wavered between total disgust and fascination, states of mind which he kept communicating to his mother, who sat, amused, only three seats away. “Yikes,” he kept saying, yet his eyes were glued to the tattooed septally perforated man.
