You should see how much money I have to spend every year to get every pair of pants shortened at the tailor.

how much it is in cm?

I think it would be something like 190 cm for 6'3" because 1 foot is equal to 30.48 cm. That means 7 feet would be around 213 cm.

hope youre not shrinking on us

Yes, I think I am. Even pants that are labeled Short are too long for me.

I'm 5'2" tall. :( I must be Sicilian like Koach said. heehee. But at the Polish festival here in L.A. I didn't have to look way up at anyone. Polish people are short here or average height. Maybe it's all the toxic chemicals in the water in addition to the smog.

Very funny. :( I'm just teasing. I live near Asians and Mexicans and they're all short, too, so I don't feel bad.

I dig that L.A. river Does it ever fill all the way up?

Only with sludge and trash and homeless people. It never rains here so water is rare.

I seen it a few years back... It looked like a little stream with huge walls
around it

On rare occasions it does fill up and people always fall in and get swept away because it's such a rare sight. They can't help themselves.

when in August?

Taste of Polonia is during Labor Day Weekend. If I'm not mistaken it starts on Friday
and ends on Monday night. I looked at my 2007 calendar and if I'm correct it should be
Aug 31st to Sept. 3rd.

When they post the schedule of events..I'll post the info here.

In my family we are all tall except for my Mom..she is tiny compared to the rest of us.
She wears petit clothes and still has to have her slacks shortened. I'm 5'7" and my
brother is 6'6"
