Nope, shoes off..I'm taller than I look, my wife on the other hand is shorter than she looks. From a distance you'd thnk we're about the same height but I'm over 3" taller than her…weird huh?

The emergency room thing was for a broken wrist..no biggie, except it's some little bone that's a bugger to set evidently so I have to go to an orthopedic surgeon tomorrow to do that, so I've been in a temporary splint all week and it hurts mummy! I like the pain killers they gave me though ;)

OUCH, poormankie. How did you manage that?

I think they were trying to massage your ego with the height thing.

According to this site - http://www.weightchart.org/ - you are way above your ideal weight range.

Well I moved when I was 11 and I'm a little younger, so probably not.

And if they're from the 07042, well…..lets just say our families probably didn't run in the same circles……
:D
I think I'm gonna skip the poll. I'm too boring, and have nothing witty to say today. Does this mean I'm a loser?

Think of all the opportunities this poll would give you for pimping your girlfriend's band.
Now I understand the board hatred for Ryan Adams…two words…Parker Posey.
