Yeah, I saw him yesterday on BoingBoing. Would have emailed you the link, but I figured you already read BoingBoing.
He is, definitely, *awesome*. What I would have given to have a teacher that cool in any grade! And man but his colours have stayed true (that red!!!), never mind the fact that his are probably *the most* colourful face and head tattoos I have ever seen (as far as range of colours go). Way too cool and so damn inspiring…
I knew Bruce Potts during his teaching years. In addition to being a nice guy, he is a talented artist and singer. I own 2 of his paintings, one of tropical birds, and the other of a desert landscape. He once sang a beautiful and memorable rendition of the national anthem at a school event.
He’s an interesting character and a really nice guy. I met him a couple of years ago at a convention:

This tattooed teacher is one cool guy. And obviously a tough one too. Next to him, Dennis Rodman would seem like a sissy.
