| Introduction | Dan Tyler is something of an educated prat who fancies himself smarter than pretty much everyone on the planet because he has figured out a way to spend up to 99% of his time in the company of a Chinese Pug. It is unclear who serves whom, but together they are MIGHTY and irresistible. He delights in referring to himself in the 3rd person and acknowledges how annoying it is! |
