Slightly off topic, but I love your signature. I always figure that's what I'm doing when I tank - yelling insults at the boss.

"YO, OVER HERE, YOU BIG FAT BABBOON!!! YEAH YOU! SISSY! YOU COULDN'T HIT THE BROAD SIDE OF A BARN!"

*Imagines a tank yelling the same taunts the French in Monty Python and the Holy Grail.*
Fight me, you son of a silly person! Your mother was a finch and your father a cranberry bush!

Ha, takes me back to the early days of Lich! Sarth was the first raid boss I'd ever tanked on any toon. I was overly nervous in the beginning; it wasn't until later that I learned how simple he is to tank by comparison. One of my favorite tanking memories was stepping up out of the dps (terrible dps, since I didn't have a proper cat spec and that was looooong before I was interested in owl) in an OS 25 and saying "hey, I can tank better than the idiot in there now" and we one-shot him with me tanking. As I recall, the problem was threat gen and positioning. That was the first time I had any confidence in myself as a tank. I'd only tanked him on 10m prior to that, so I dove into what I considered to be the deep end headlong - unsure if I could swim.
The funny thing was going back on my paladin later and thinking nothing of it on the first run, just because I'd already learned it all on my druid.
