WW: If you had a tattoo, what would it be and where would you put it?
Obama: Uh, I cannot imagine any circumstances in which I would get a tattoo.

WW: If you were under duress.
Obama:If a gun was put to my head?

WW: Yes.

Obama: Then I suppose I'd have to have Michelle's name tattooed somewhere very discreet.

Such a sweet answer and a well handled off the wall interview moment.
