But that was long before any of you were a twinkle in Marmadaddy's eye. how long has TAN been going on? Oh, now listen here, son, I'll tell you the tale of TAN. No one really knows how TAN started, or when it started. Some say it always was. Some say it was spawned by the unholy union of the Devil himself and some wood nymph. I'm here to tell ya, they're all wrong. I know the truth. Way back, one day, two people were fishing in their boat. Good friends, they were. Well, one of those friends fell in the water. Saw something shiny, mostly buried in the mud. So he swam down to see what it was. It was a gold ring. He grabbed it, and there's been badness afoot in the lands ever since. No matter what you believe, there aren't many of the old TANners around anymore these days. Some were chased off, some went insane. Some just grew old and bitter, not liking the turn TAN had taken. In the end, TAN goes on. |
