If 5 more people were close to 6'0 in the whole school it would be a miracle...

College was a little better. True basketball team there. My buddy, Jesse, was maybe an inch taller than me and then the center was like 7'0. Then you had all the Russian women running around there playing tennis that looked me square in the eye...kinda freaky. I wish Jesse wouldnt have gotten cut by the Jets though. Hard to transition from college hoops to NFL but he loved both!
Umm yeah...now you see why I didn't date in HS. Well, I did, but not HS boys. LOL! All the boys in my HS were skinny puny little *****heads. They all thought they were too cool.

We had a world-class volleyball team at CSU. Some of those girls were 6'4" and they were HUGE.

Randy is the shortest at 6'1". Lets see the others were: 6'4", 6'6", 6'8", 6'7" and 6'2".

The 6'8" was a firefighter..he was hot but he had a teeny tiny...nevermind.

LOL!!!

LOL yeah I don't realize how much taller Randy is than me until I take off my heels and then give him a hug.

I have NO IDEA why I like tall men. I am only 5'6".

Is your father tall, Lisa?

even if he isnt, he was when you were little and it just may be a comfort thing, and there is nothing wrong with that...

I had a buddy of mine in high school, he was 6'8 and his g/f was 6'3...man, she had such long legs that a knee length skirt looked like a miniskirt on her!

I really need to make a trip to florida...I know I have pics of her somewhere at my parents home.

Edit..my friend had 4 brothers all 6'4 or taller and 1 sister...5' even!

My dad was about 6' when he was younger, maybe 5'10" by the time he passed away. Not super tall.

Actually I think my affinity for taller bigger men is directly related to my own insecurities. I am only 5'6" but I am not exactly petite and I am very strong....so I guess I am just afraid I'll hurt a smaller guy...and in turn it means I am not attracted to them, as sick and strange as that might sound.

Also just because I am the way I am, I need a more masculine guy. I'd outwork and outpower a more affeminate man.

Dont feel bad. I love short girls. I dated one in high school and it got me started on the short women. She was right at 5'0. Then my next 2 were in what I call the medium range and they both ended up pregnant. One was a long distance runner...never could keep up with her!

Edit...

I think the taller ones are good too. Those Russian women in college...lordy lordy...
But I dont discriminate! If youve got a great personality and you can hold a decent conversation with myself of my friends youve definitely got my attention!

My Dad is 5'9, my Mom is 5'4. Well, probably 5'8 & 5'3 respectively now. As I said, I'm 6'1, but I get my height & my looks from my Mom's Dad. He was 6'1 and blond also. It's funny how genetics works. My brother is a carbon copy of my Dad. LOL

Too funny. Another instance where you have a lot in common with Randy.

Randy's dad is 5'4, his mom is 5'7". His sister is maybe 5'2". Randy doesn't look anything like them either! I guess his mom's dad was Swedish, and that's where he gets his height and looks from.

In that same respect, the women in my family are short, most are just over 5'. I have no idea where my 5'6" came from.

Any luck Sheldon? I have had to unthaw a couple of pressure discharge lines under ground before. If you know where it's frozed you can build a fire on top of the ground and unthaw it. Depending on how deep it is. Sometimes you can flush it with hot water also.

I'm not sure I have details for you. I don't remember exactly what happened, all I remember was that we were in a camper, and that it was good.
Never mind questions answered.....
