*pulls bat out of reach*
BTW...how tall are you Fatali and Q?
Catherine
im 5"8' XD and still growing
:S That question has me a little worried.....I plead the fifth! I have no height, or perhaps I am infinitely tall! I'LL NEVER TELL!!!!!
Well, Q, it determines if you'll be able to grab the bat from me...*holds bat over head* You can't reach it until you tell me how tall you are!
Catherine
I TOLD you, I am infinitely tall (or maybe infinitely short), I can grab the bat no matter what.....right? ;D
Yeah, right...can't grab the bat until you tell me....
Catherine
Can i grab the bat ???
No, because I'm warding you off...only Fatali and Q can go after it! And only after they tell me their heights!
Cat
but i want the bat and i told you my height :-\

Well, I have to know if it's possible for them to reach the bat...and I'm not telling my height until I hear from them both :suffer:
Cat

*returns bat to Koko* I dont believe in stealing :)
(deja vu? anyone? ::))
I'm 182cm or 6'0". I'm big and surly. >:(
hmmm.... so what is this feet inches stuff.... i mean how tall is everyone in cm? ; )

That did feel like deja vu! I wonder why!
B'rrr what do you have against the American way of measuring? Well, I'd tell you in cm, but I can't find a ruler right now, so I can't convert! I will after I find one!
Catherine
I hate the American way of measuring also :P
what do i have a against Americans?? ...you really want to know... o wait... you meant the measuring ; ) ...lol, nothing but i'm just not familiar with it.... i mean how long is a feet/inch?
hmmm... i guess i could distract it from James' post if i knew how many inches are in a feet... hmmm... or i just go and search google ; )
POO ON YOU BOTH! >:(
Catherine
POO ON YOU TOO >:(
;D
...that is so rude!! :'( ...why pooing?? :'(
http://individual.utoronto.ca/dtsang/javascript/conversion.htm
Since it's inches to centimeters, I'll tell you there's 12 inches in a foot.
I'm 5'7", or 67 inches, or 170cm. And I'm afraid I've stopped growing. (Poo!) And I agree, the metric system is better than the Imperial one.
Peace & Luv, Liz
lol, i haven't measured myself in years... i have no idea how tall i am ; )
5'2", or 157.48cm...
yes, I'm short!
Catherine
Im taller ;D, 5'8" ;B
One thing i dont understand is the fact the we use metric but use feet for heights :S ???
Don't rub it in my face! I'd love to be even an inch taller...I was trying to reach in the top of my closet two nights ago and had to get Donna to reach the folder I was trying to get! At home, I can't reach the top shelf in the kitchen cabinets...have to go get a stool :'(...I'M SO SHORT!...just one inch...I'd be happy with just one more inch!
Catherine
You're the same height as my mom, Koko. I think, anyway... my mom's either 5'2" or 5'4".
And I wouldn't sweat it. Guys seem to like petite women best, so you're all set. ;) (Well, either that, or they like really tall women. Not 'tweenies like me, though. Why couldn't I get those extra two inches to be the height my doctor guessed I would be? Plus it would spread out my weight a bit more so I wouldn't be so chubby!)
Peace & Luv, Liz
I'm 5'9" and stopped growing years ago. ;D
im 5'8" so im taller or gonna be taller than alot of ppl in here ;P :suffer:
LOL, dont worry koko I'll be meanieh to him instead
*taps jason head*

She is! She's got legs up to heeeere! *jestures to own neck*

Peace & Luv, Liz
its good to be short ;B
Yeah, we can not be seen when we go around whacking tall people in the knees :D
Yeah i know its cool ;D
That's a great idea, Mango!
*wacks all tall people behind the knees...runs away* :suffer:
Cat
Umm....ow?
I went back and measured, I'm ONLY 5'7. :'( I am one of the shortest people in my school.
I used to be one of the tallest kids in my class, until I got to high school. (pouts) I remember the first thought I had upon getting my first look at the juniors and seniors was... "Damn! When the hell did the guys get so *tall*?!" :P
Peace & Luv, Liz
Heh. When I was in Grade 6 (around 11-12 yrs old) I wasn't particularly tall. About 5'3"....and I was shorter than a few people, especially the gals.
I moved to Germany, but after 3 years, I moved back to the same neighbourhood. When I came back, I was taller than most of the people I hadn't seen in 3 years. It was cool. Being big and surly has it's advantages. (some disadvantages, but they're minor. :))
I'm either 164cm or 169 cm (been a long time since I was measured). IIRC, when I converted that a time ago I got to 5'9''. Either way, I am, and always have been, one of the smaller/-st guys. I can't even reach the top closets at work! :-\
lol, In the small between my brother, jesus is 6'1'' and ram is 5'11''
and I was tall at highschool and at college too, there are tall girls alright, but not that many, there are only like... 2 that are actually taller than me for real (one of them is ACTUALLY 6' wtf and she's uber sweet fun girl lol), whats it's even funny is to be taller than guys hahahahaha oh well, whatever :P
Tall women are aaaaawesome!
I'm above average height, so to find a woman taller than me is pretty cool. It's nice to have the different perspective (and see up their nose! Yay boogies!)
and Jesus is HUGE....he looks like he would crush me like the insect that I am. :P
well atleast some ppl around here are tall ;), and atleast im taller than atleast one person ;P
Well, what's hilarious in our family is my brother and sister-in-law. Bobby is 5'11" and Jen is 4'11", so there's a whole foot in between them! I've attached a pic so you can tell, but Jen is wearing shoes that I think are 6 inches! I'm not joking on that either! Don't know how she walked on her wedding day!
Cat
(stands on her tippie-toes)
I am tall! (cries)
Peace & Luv, Liz
i am 5'8", i hope every1 understands that :suffer:
hmmm... my id says i'm 1.78, but that wasmore then 4 years ago, i must have grown a bit since then'.... i guess ; ) hahaha, not sure though (well pretty sure, just don't know how much)
so how many feet is that ???
hmmm... i think it would be 5'10" ...but like i said i'm a few cm bigger now so i could be over 6 or so
so we are about the same height according to your old height :suffer:
and then there's short little ole me!
Cat
lol, yeah... but you can always wear high heals ; )
btw Jason, I think you'll be bigger then I, cuz i was 18 when i was measuresd and only 2 inch taller then you... so ; )
yeah poor shorty ;P :suffer:
I wear high-healed sandles...they're the cutest shoes I own!...but high heals kill the feet!
Cat
5'6" is good. ;)
Actually, almost any height is good. As long as it's between 5'0" and 6'4". :D
Glad to know I barely fit into your ideal height guideline!
isnt the main thing that you fit?
Yeah, no grey areas there. Either you're in or you're out. And youz in, babeh! ;)
I feel so special now! ;D
Now if only someone else will agree about my shortness...oh well, I'll find out in October! ;D
I always thought men liked short women? I've had a few guys complain about the fact that I was "too tall" (and I'm only 5'7"!).
Peace & Luv, Liz
Actually, I really like tall women. A lot. 5'9" - 6'2". Crazy sexy. :lovegoggles:
But, I've also realized that I'm not that picky. Only girl I've been in love with was 5'2 1/2" (she always stressed the 1/2! :D)
So, I figured as a general rule, anywhere between 5' and 6'4" is a good range to go for.
(I'm 6'0" myself, btw)
Well, considering the guy that I'm talking to (who I still won't know if anything's going to come of it until October) is around 6'1"...my 5'2" is a big difference...
The guys here in Western MA tend to be uniformly tall... it's pretty wack.
As for being really tall... my pediatrician guesstimated that I would end up being 5'9"... I WANT THOSE TWO EXTRA INCHES, DARN IT!
No guy's gonna date me anyway, so I might as well make life easier on myself access-wise. But no, I can grow pimples and love handles, but no extra height inches! Life is unfair. ;P
Peace & Luv, Liz

I'm 5'2" as I said...last time I checked. My sister is only a 1/2 inch taller than me. However, she stresses that she's 5'3 1/2"...so I think it's time I re-measure my height! :P
You should measure yourself with the same measuring device, too. Taking a ruler and using your finger as a reference, and then measuring up again from there doesn't count! :D
I'm just glad I'm taller than my father. ;D
Being tall is not always peachy :-\, I don't recall having many friends/whatever else taller than me anyhow (Im talking about guys on this matter) so I always felt bad about that, not that it really matters anymore. The only men that I knew that were taller than me are 1 of my brothers ;P AND the rest were foreing ppl staying here...
so what is the problem? seriously is not the men perse, it is that EVERYTHING is designed for the average height... which is a bit tiny sometimes and I go from clothing to everything else, it is annoying ya know :P
that was my point lol :)
I just like being on eye level with people... and since I tend to mostly hang out with men, and the men here are so tall, I wish I were taller. It's so awkward sometimes talking to a man who's significantly taller than me.
I can think of more than a few occasions in my retail jobs where a little more height would have been useful, but it doesn't apply as much in office work.
As for clothes, I already have so many problems finding clothes that fit... what's one more issue? :P
Actually, strangely enough, I have problems with my sleeves... for some reason the sleeves of most of my blouses only go to just past my elbow. I have no idea if this is some strange trend I never noticed before, or I just have freakishly long arms.
Peace & Luv, Liz
The thing that pisses me of about being shorter than average is that Jeans/trousers, shirts and sometimes Tshirts are always that little bit too big and dont fit right. I guess thats why I pretty much live in Jeans and (mostly) baggy clothes...
I prefer baggy clothes, but I find most shirts marked as "Medium" or "Large" fit a little TOO well. :X
But it depends on the store and the kind of clothing you're looking at too. Usually formal stuff is a bit more fitted.
I'm 176cm's....
You guys can convert that to the ancient, outdated yank system. ;)
Laura is 164 I think? or 162... well, pretty dam short either way! :D
ok, I felt sorry for you all, using that strange, illogical measuring system...
176cm = 5' 9½"
162cm = 5' 3"
;D
I agree that the metric system kicks the imperial system's butt... now if you can convince the head monkeys and stick-in-the-muds in the US of that fact, I'll bow down and worship you. ;P
And you're just the right size, Grundy... of course, you're also pending-married... darn. ;)
Peace & Luv, Liz
Say: You're tall. That's sexy. Deal with it. ;)
Liz: Move to Mexico. Almost everyone there is your height. :D (not so much a fact, but at 182 cm, my little white head stuck out rather well. :)
As for clothing fit, with pants/trousers/whatever, I find that they need a length between 32 and 34. If they had a 33 leg, that would be so perfect for me.
Shirts are all messed up for me. My arms are too long for XL and my body's not quite big enough for XXL. So I usually just go with XXL and things will be baggy on me.

It was England's idea. We'd have probably came up with a simplier, and more illogical, way of measuring. :P
Now that I think of it...
Isn't there a system of measurement(not for measuring length), from the US?
*start looking up pecks*
Hmm. I'm about 5'10 whih is rather short for a guy and, come to think of it, I dont think i've ever dated anyone taller than me.
Not that I haven't tried ;P

It's ok, don't worry about the pollies they're all too stupid to think of changing to metric.
And anyway, all the people that actually care about it, already use it... for example, all the scientists/physicists etc... They work in Metric, hell, most of the formulas etc are in metric Si units.
;)
And as for my height, I'm pretty short for a guy here... well, on the shorter end of average atleast. 8)

5'10" is the average height for men. So no, you're not rather short. Nor tall.
Harrison's 5'10". I try telling him all the time that he's the perfect height, but he always complains that he wishes he were taller. Ah, well.
Peace & Luv, Liz
Try being 5'2" and not able to get into the top cabinet in the kitchen without a stool! Another inch and I'd be able to...but noooo I'm just a little too short and I have to use a stool.
And about clothes that fit or don't fit. I have a hard time finding pants that fit. Jeans are fine as long as I go to Goody's and get their petite jeans. But dress pants, no matter whether petite or regular, have to be altered and taken up at least an inch or so. It's REALLY annoying. Shirts are usually ok, as long as they're dressier shirts. But if I get T-shirts, they're usually too long...*sigh*
I just had to clear something up...not that I'm obsessed with height or anything but Jon always calls me shorty, little one, etc, etc....
I'm actually 5'5" (165cm) not 162cm or whatever Jon wrote
He just likes to think he is more taller than me than he actually is!
I don't personally have issues with being my height except that I have to take up every pair of pants I buy without fail and I can never reach heigh cupboards or shelves in shops! :-[

Looks like we can throw a "short people pity part". *looks at other forumers* Hmmm...looks like you and I are the only members of that club right now...
We'll recruit some more...I'm sure they're hiding somewhere ::)
I'm 5'9", which is somewhat short for guys. At one point I was among the tall ppl in my class, and now I'm average to below average. :'(
But only among guys. Most girls I know are around that height or shorter. !!! I've also noticed the shorter, the secsayier. <3 XB
Oooh, I'm secsayier :P
I'd be secsayer if I were taller... then I could distribute all my flab better. :P (As it is, I think my current height is the only reason I'm not a total blob.)
Peace & Luv, Liz
LOL Jeysie! Well, in general, taller people prefer taller people (just not taller than them :D). I never had many friends (girls) that were taller than me. There was one in high school that was supah tall already, and even wore heals to be even taller. :o
Oh, trust me, I'd love to be a little taller...I have the same issues with distributing the weight. But then, if I lose about 15 pounds, then I can just say that I was made petite :P Now if only I can figure out how to get the 15 extra pounds off... :S

I lost 17 pounds in one month last year. I did that taking boxing training. It's a phenominal full body workout. Now if I could only get back into boxing without all the annoying children there. :S
oohhh yeah I did that too once before my back injury, now I can pretty much do nothing and I should die like a vegetable :D
and for the record, Im not tall neither gorgeous, Im fat and huge :( (and fugly too)
You're 5'10", which is sexy tall. RAWR! :lovegoggles:
You are gorgeous. Everyone else thinks knows this. <3
And if you want fat, you should see my bellah. :(
and I use boots with huge heels :o
best accesory/weapon a girl can have :D hahaha ;-D
I don't like any shoes, I love my boots <3
I look good in heels, but geez, it's hard to walk in them things. :D :D
I've been told, all you need to do, is run 10 miles a day(won't work for everyone, but it's worth a try).
i've been told that it is not good to run every day ;-D
BOOTS ROCK!
if only it wasnt summer, i would wear my knee highs all the time...with the killa heel!
i want thigh length ones...coz then u can wear a mini skirt and look like a cat...ok getting into fetishes now, not good.
I could never wear "high" heel shoes... I'd fall flat on my face, and shortly after that my feet would cramp up so badly I'd never walk again. :D
I used to wear low-top boots... looked kind of like those men's yellow workboot type things, except they were black and came up only to the ankle.
Now I wear those new-fangled clunky boots... the best shoe trend since canvas shoes, IMHO. Of course, unlike the sorts of styles most women would wear, mine are wide-width, have wide rounded toes, go just-above-ankle-high with zippers, and have a large, flat heel that's only about an inch high at most. (Would have gotten flats, but they didn't have that style in my size. Poo.)
What size shoe does everyone wear? I wear a honkin' 9 to 9 1/2 wide. Women's shoes are actually sized somewhat logically here in the States, so that means I have 9-inch long feet. Whoo, canal boats!
Peace & Luv, Liz
Of course, you have to remember that shoe sizes vary from country to country. I'm a size 6 1/2 which is about a size 5 in the UK. (just checked the shoe conversion tag on the shoes :P) I love anything that will help me look taller...but with my lower back problems, I can't wear heels every day.
LN, I think you can run every day...but you've got to be in shape to be able to go 10 miles right off the bat. With me, I'm lucky to make it a mile!
Running is very hard on the knees. It's best to switch it up with other types of exercise.
My favorite boots were either my combat boots from the military (comfortable with a nice set of insoles) or the parade boots. They go up the calf and had huge soles. They were seriously badass...especially if you had a wicked spit shine on them. 8)
I know a guy that does/did run 10 miles everyday(he retired from work, so he might have had more time than most). He said he needed to keep in shape(I think a doctor told him that). He claimed he could eat anything he wanted, and not gain any weight.
It doesn't sound too hard to me, except for the amount of time it would take. Well... except that I'd probably too sore the next day, to even walk 1/2 a mile. ;P
*looks at name of thread*
I'm over 5 foot, and under 6. I'll guess 5' 6". :-\
I know a few people who can eat what they want and not gain the weight, even without running.
I know myself, and I hate running. I should get into boxing again, because that is an intense, complete body workout. For some of those guys to do twelve rounds amazes me.
Jeysie,
I'm also 9
James,
and koko and whoever else who feels overweight :P... let's be fat together! we shall rule the world someday!... or we could do a fun cute club where we mock out skinny ppl :D
I can't do any running for any serious length of time... and it has nothing to do with my knees and more to do with needing to wear goggles! :D
I like walking when I'm going somewhere, but it's boring to do just for the sake of itself and I don't have the time anyways.
I like swimming, but I don't have enough money to sign up at the local YMCA.
So... bleh. I could just not eat... then maybe I'd lose some weight. It's not like my job requires that much useful conciousness. ;P
Peace & Luv, Liz

That sounds like a GREAT plan, Say. There's only one problem to that, though...you're not fat!
I enjoy walking, but I've got to have a walking partner. There's no way I can motivate myself. I'm doing a couple exercises targeting specific areas...hopefully I'll see results soon!

I already do that! :D I tell them that either they're "going to get blown away in a strong wind" or that they've "got tapeworms" or that they "don't know how to make the food go from their plate to their mouth" :D
I'm under-height and under-weight, so I guess I'm an under-achiever. XB
No seriously, in school I was always (one of the) shortest (don't recall if it was just of the men or of the entire class), and (one of the) skinniest.
I'm either 5' 7'' or 5' 5'', I'm not exactly sure about the last number in cms of my height. Anyway, either way, I'm too short, but perfect for my weight.
My shoe-size is about 42, don't know how to convert that to your measuring system. :-\
I vary in shoe sizes from 7 - 9 :o
Depends on the style and support as I have a high instep (apparently). Like some sketchers I have are a size 8, some other trainers I've got are 7 and my presto's are about a size 9 lol (woooo clown shoes!)
As far as Weight goes (I'm 8 1/2 - 9 stone depending on the day of the week lol) I've looked at all those stupid graphs where it has height and weight and on one i was freaking obesse for my heaight!! Then on another I was dangerously underweight :-\
Lol tbh I dont care as long as I'm still happy about the way I look :)
omg alex, virtually same feet and weight as me...ok im begining to think something rather freaky is going on here...ur my male clone arent u!
i know ur my twin...but omg!
Nothin' personal against Alex or anything, but Kimmie, you're sooooo much more attractive. :D
James...I think you've got that backwards :P I find Alex much more attractive then Kimmie.
And Kimmie, if I am remembering correctly, I think you and Alex are within a couple of inches of each other in height.
Sorry, Cat. I got it right.
Kimmie is definitely more attractive than Alex. <3
And don't challenge your elders. >:(
:suffer:
guys...stop taking sides. me and alex are equally attractive ;P
and i will measure him up later on today...he wont read this till he gets back so i am safe :suffer:

I was spanked as a child, and I'm a better person for it. :D

I dunno, I got spanked regularly as a child, and I still was an unholy spoiled hyper-brat until I grew into mid-teenager-hood. Then I wisened up for reasons having nothing to do with corporal punshment and became a cynical b**** instead. Whether or not this is an improvement is in the eye of the reader.
Peace & Luv, Liz

Spanking and spoiling at the same time is most definitely
not good.
IIRC I got hit on the head just the once. Generally speaking I always was a good boy. :P
QuoteForget it sonny, overhere they have absolutely no respect for the elder.
It's not that easy to tell someone's age on the forums(that, and many people seem to transform into non-humans), maybe if you added something to your signature ::)
I checked my height(something I haven't done in awhile), and I'm just under 5' 8"(170cm).
The only way you know someone's age is if they put it on their profile...and it surprises me how many people DON'T put it.
I was spanked as a child as a last resort...if nothing else seemed to get through to us. And about respecting our elders...depends on if the elder deserves respect :P Actually, my sister and I get complimented often because of the amount of respect that we show.
People keep mentioning Storm's age, but they never say the exact number.
*looks thru old threads to find it*
Ahhh, that explains the "age 3"... but you do realise Storm isn't that young, right? ;-D
As a kid I was usually spanked, slapped or beaten with a wooden spoon. ::) And I wasn't even a bad kid! :P
She's somewhere between 24 and 30, I remember that much. :P

I started with 2(for 20s), and working my way up to 8(80s). I can't find a post of it. I'll assume she's 90-something. XD
Edit: Okay, I'll assume she's 27.
Just under 5' 8" .
Now we have 2 height threads to post in. ;D
Ahhh... thanks for finding it for me!
*merges threads* ;D
This reminds me of my pumpkin days. XD
Yay for lateness, Hmm alot of questions to answer in this one thread.
I am about 6'4ish or 193.04 cm, i weigh about 235 at the moment cause im fat, wear a size 13-14 depending on the brand of shoe, and i was never hit at all as a child.
I dont really think im fat i just wanted to be apart of the trend of non fat people saying they are.
i was a good child, smacked on the bum a few times but not whacked...the smakcing still continues ;-D but not from parents :suffer: maybe they were preparing me for life as an *adult*

ahem...excuse me, but i think you'll find i know me better ;P do i hav to throw trout at u neil...do i?
If you're like me, you put yourself down more than you build yourself up. So your answer doesn't count...we have to rely on others to answer questions like that! :P
its coz im used to being knocked down.
but then if u build urself up too much u can get hated
Yeah, but people seem to pick extremes. No middle ground. Either all the way up, or all the way down. :(
it depends...you can hav good or bad days...
I just go for the truth. ;P
Peace & Luv, Liz
I'm sure each and every one of us is hotter in person than in pictures. I mean, they never do us any justice.
I'm less blobby-looking in person. Unfortunately you can see my acne better in person, too. :P
Peace & Luv, Liz
lol...my hips look HUGE in pictures. I don't think they're that big in RL. At least, I HOPE not! :o
well its right about spots, i hav had a break out for some odd reason :'(
I know how you feel, Kimmie. I've had a breakout that's lasted from May until just a couple weeks ago. It ended when I actually changed my facial cleanser. Maybe doing that will help you out.
New thread: beauty tips :P
dont use cleanser...it makes my skin worse
Is it because it strips the oil from your skin? I know my problem is excess oil, so a harsh cleanser is actually a good thing. But they do make cleansers for dry skin. I love St. Ives products.
St Ives Apricot facial scrub mmmmm
I find i go through phases in a month of having no spots and then ones that appear in the same place all teh time lol.

St Ives Apricot facial scrub mmmmm
Ummm...Alex. That's my favorite St. Ives product! Got some in our bathroom right now!
My second fav. is St. Ives Purifying Facial Clear Pore Cleanser...(but I can't find it on the website...does that mean that they've stopped making it??)
EDIT: nevermind...found it!
I haven't had clear skin since I was 11. :(
My problem is my pores... as in they're always clogged. I've tried everything I can get my hands on that purports to unclog pores, but none of it seems to work.
And I don't know what to do at all about my chest, back, arms, and legs. I've had this area of little red pimples on the top outside of both forearms for years.
Peace & Luv, Liz
I know I have little red bumps on my forearms too. Found out that it's actually hair that reaches the top of the skin and doesn't grow any further. There's something you can put on it if you go to a dermatologist, but I'm not going to worry about it TOO much anymore.

I'm also 168cm (yeah, short :() and 70kg (yeah, fat :().
And if anyone ever tried to get my respect by spanking me, it had the opposite result >:(
Great, now I've lost my mystique :P
I'm only 170cm, since men are taller than women(on average), I'm shorter than you. XD
P.S.That was a quick update(smiley sidebar).

BTW, I'm not average. :X
Quote170cm is shorter than 168 cm?
Compared to the norm, yes.
Quote from: Louisiana Night on August 22, 2004, 11:15:07 AMCompared to the norm, yes.
In that case, I'm
definitely shorter than the norm, being shorter than you. ;P
I'm currently 6'1" and not still growing. (I could still shrink though. :()
I'm the perfect size for Say though! <3 That makes me happeh! ;D
HAHAHAH!! how cute, don't shrink though! ;)
I'm still 5'7.5" last I checked, I don't think there will be any more growth spurts soon. :P
I am currently 5'9" and still growing :P
Still 5'2" from last I checked...but I've been meaning to check again...I've had a couple people who said they're my height or slightly taller and just looking at it doesn't add up.
I've been thinking about checking my height again too, but as with all things, from thought to action takes a long time. Anyway, what was I, 5'7? Can't have grown much farther than that. :-\
Last I heard, CC, you were saying you were 5'9"...but I could be remembering that wrong.
I think he said he was 5'7". :-\
and I know he didn't say 5'9", because I remember he was slightly shorter than me. :P
Told you I had a bad memory :P
Quote from: Louisiana Night on December 08, 2004, 03:08:54 PMand I know he didn't say 5'9", because I remember he was slightly shorter than me. :P

I am precisely tall enough to kiss Say without needing a step-ladder... :P Coincidence? I think not! ;D
And how did you figure that one out? :P
VERRRRYYYY precise triganometric functions based on the curvature of the Earth's rotation in relation to it's distance from Pluto... Any other questions? ;)
Whoo hoo! You figured out the formula I sent you! :D
:P
Hey, I may be little, but I certainly get the job done... ;P (With or without a step ladder, Ms. Thank-you-very-much!) ::)
Hmmm...interesting...I thought you were at least 6ft tall...
From: Ms. Thank-you-very-much
Well, yes, I am... But using HIS *points to the last page* formula, I'm precisely 3.44567 CM tall. :-\ (And what's with all this writing in code stuff, hmmm?? ;P)
And who's formula? Erik's? Guess his was a little off...although it worked just fine for him. :-\
