Thanks for the birthday wish, jjjfishe!

Darn, I’d push Myrr in the water if he wasn’t already in it. andygirl, I need some suntan lotion! Frolicking with Myrr has worn all mine off!

I’m pretty tall–it take a good bi’-o-water to reach me mouth. But I appreciate the concern; it simply wouldn’t do to die at your hands in the middle of the pool party :eek:

It’s okay hon even if he does take in some water: we’ve got those guys here for that sort of thing.

But there’s something very strange about them. I’m sure they’re very good at their job ut somehow they seem… artificial.

6’3"…though my driver’s liscence–being a wee bit old–still says 6’2". This annoys me because at 6’2" I wouldn’t be the tallest person in the family;when your father is 6’2 1/2", you wait a \* long \* time to beat that out. Heck, it even took me years to outgrow my mother.

My goodness! I’m 5’6" on a good day!

How much suntan lotion does it take to cover a six-three guy? Let’s find out! 😃

I think some empirical data is \* definately \* in order 😉

5’6" is a good height…even on a less-than-good day 🙂
