Tan Man Makes a Sandwich

I am linking up with Twee Poppets and Boobies, Babies, & a Blog today to bring you the story of Tan Man.

This is Tan Man.



If I had to pick one word to describe Tan Man it would be entertaining.


This kid is seriously funny. Not only can he do impersonations and accents. He has a mind like a steel trap. He never forgets a funny quip and can whip them out at precisely the right moment. Keep this picture and look for him on late night tv in the distant future.



Here is an example of this kid's antics on a daily basis.


A few years back we had the rule that since Saigie couldn't reach the counter the brothers took turns making her lunch as part of their chores. The Coach came and got me one evening laughing. We snuck quietly into the kitchen to watch Tan Man. ( He was probably 7 at the time.)He singing and dancing to his very own, very white version of Michael Jackson.


While we was boogieing down he was making two ham sandwiches. He picked up a piece of ham and laid it on his bread, then he picked up another. He held it up in front of his face and LICKED THE ENTIRE THING. Next he slapped it down on his sister's sandwich. I couldn't contain my covertness any longer and burst out with something like, "Tanner what in the Sam Hill are you doing?" He looked at us unabashedly and said, "It's a good practical joke."


It turned out Saigie had been eating pre-licked sandwiches about every other day that year.


I guess he's "Got To Be Starting Something". (I couldn't resist.)



Do you have an entertaining person in your life. One who almost never fails to make you laugh? Tell me about them.

P.S. This is Tayte. He does not do impersonations, but he does like to copy his big brothers and sister.

I am also including this post on True Story Tuesday at Once Upon a Miracle because it IS a true story.
