a tall tale
08:29:2002

i am a little taller than average, but probably not as tall as you think. the following conversation happens so often i have it memorized.

some guy "how tall are you?"
me "six-two or three, i am not really sure."
some guy "no way, i am six foot, and if i am six foot you are at least six five."
me "hmm, that's interesting"

i wonder if this conversation ever happens with shaq?
some guy "how tall are you?"
shaq "seven-two."
some guy "no way, i am six foot, and if i am six foot you are at least nine five."
shaq "shut up, punk ass"

i wonder if this conversation ever happens to Verne Troyer (mini me)?
some guy "how tall are you?"
Vern "thirty two inches."
some guy "no way, i am seventy two inches, and if i am seventy two inches you are no more than 2 feet."
Vern "whatever, shaq"

the psychology behind these conversations probably give the female readers some insight to the male brain and it's obsession with fudging measurements.
