BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!

Eat dirt, poogas! I’m just 14! I claim your youngest prize for my own! Gahahahahahahahahah! (Can you tell that I’m fourteen?)

By the way, you fetid and zygotes don’t count, 'cause you don’t have fingers long enough to type with. Call me biased against the disadvantaged, but I want my prize.

There _is_ a prize, isn’t there?

In all seriousness, I’m 22 years, one month, eleven days, eight hours, uh, ahem, oh forget it! I’m 22 years old, 6’0" tall. I claim the title of tallest poster (female).

How about the youngest to the DOPE? I’ve only been registered for Three days as of 1-24-00 🙂 Other wise, I’m 22 years, two months, three days, some change. I’m tall and fat too. (6’3" 220)

**WIUWoz** , I guess not. I have an old friend from that area with a last name starting with Woz. Random try.

Looks like **Neuro-trash grrrl** and I are gonna run away with the height aspects of the board. I think I actually forgot to include my height earlier. I am 6’9". And no, I will not reach things that are really high up. Well, OK, but just this once.

Interesting…

Let’s all use this link: [http://www.indo.com/distance/](http://www.indo.com/distance/)

Input “Chicago” in the “From” field and your hometown (or, sometimes, the nearest ‘large’ city) in the “To” field.

From Chicago to Amsterdam, ‘as the crow flies’:  
4121 miles (6632 km) (3581 nautical miles).

Who beats me ?  
Well, anyone in Germany, Finland…
