Funny, I always felt I was non-guitarist material as I was too small. Then I realised Prince was a short arse and could do the biz on any instrument known to man and also got plenty of birds.

And I could never understand the tiny girls thing either.  I suppose they're genetically programmed to go for the so-called "Alpha males"  :roll: .  And in practical terms, I can't really imagine the, er, logistics of it, to be honest...

6' and hopefully staying here.

My Dad's 6'4" and nothing fits (cars, houses, bikes, cloths, ect.) and I'm starting to push it.

I gave up on the tall thing a while ago, once my car got too small!

I know Ben but I have an excuse!

I'm loading stuff on to this new laptop and I'm using the email alerts so pop back in to reply when it goes ding dong or whatever!

What really screws me is short legs - 5'9 but with 28 inch legs - like no jeans fit without cutting - I wish my parents had put me through leg break therapy so I could be the perfect 32 32 jeans size  :D

well, i've seen a lot of backdrops!  but i saw juliette and the licks last week and i was right up against the stage, which means i got crushed, the guitarist hit me on the head with his les paul and when she jumped off the stage she landed right on my head!  still, if i'd been tall she'd have just run right into me (can't decide if that would be good or bad)  :roll:

EDIT:  um, that was meant to be a quote from phillyq by the way...

Hmm.  If you were just a bit taller, she'd have probably hit you with her knee, which would be bad.

If, however, you were Kilby's height...  

I always used to go down the front at gigs and cling on to the monitors for dear life, but I gave up doing that when some fool came up with the concept of the mosh pit.

20 minutes after my plane touched down on Friday morning! By text. Women Classical Music teachers, what the f*ck was I thinking of!  :lol: I still had to blag my way through customs after that news, hence the determination! I mean she had the f*cking front to slag Jeff Beck off! She know's nothing about life, cos she doesn't listen to lyrics in any popular music and I think it all dawned on her that she was way out of her depth and ran! Good! I'm going to live in Las Vegas anyway and thrive! Stoopid bird. She's like an Ostrich with her head in the sand. I took her to work in my lorry one Saturday morning to try an educate her (her being a teacher I thought she would have an open mind) and she said 'Well don't expect me to help you'  :?: WTF? When she saw the tip where I shoot my skips (That's where the saying Shooting your load comes from  :lol: ) She said 'It's like little boys in Tonka Toys!' So bollocks to that, give me a London slag any day!!  :lol:  :lol:

If you're talking about dress shirts (with a tie) you can go down to Next and order them in with longer arms/body (I work there).  Pity they don't do shorter lengths for midgets like me...

Actually duelling on the Heath sounds pretty good - In non red neck fashion it'l be Lutes at dawn - sounds like your ex teacher chick was insecure - I've gone out with loads of music teacher chicks and they are all like that, I think they all expected to be concert cellists, pianists, arts journalists for the Guardian etc.

almost all teachers are very insecure what do you expect, they have never left school.

as for the heath, make sure you don't bump into Hairy George.
