Elite  4547   |  Subject: The origin of TAN?This article made me chuckle...here's a quick quote from it: "Tan's identity remained shrouded in mystery. Most historians believed he was a poor, illiterate laborer, while others said he had gone mad from syphilis and that madness could explain his inability to speak. To discover just who he was..." http://news.yahoo.com/identity-famous-19th-century-brain-discovered-112823975.html It's an interesting article even if ya don't post in the TAN threads.

| Subject: RE: The origin of TAN? I don't participate in TAN as a general rule, but I thought the #1 rule of Tan was NOT to talk about TAN, outside of TAN? |

If I recall it was HangLoose who coined the term `Thread About Nothing' Coincidentally he was the first BTer I ever met in real life when he picked me up at the train station in Crystal Lake and took me to the Super 8. Then I met Core and Whizzz and Schmize and Holly and the JSchmitts that weekend and we invented the aerobong. Ahhh memories. |

Could be wrong. hangloose - 2006-09-28 5:16 PM Girl, no offense, but choo ain't even close to the Hall of Fame of thread killers. Marmadaddy had to stop running the program that tracked how many threads some of us killed to free up storage space for threads about peeing on the bike and a 50 page thread about nothing.
Nope, it was hangloose. |
