Daniel, you could create a custom friends group (Live Journal > Friends > Manage Custom Friends Groups). If you want to do a quick exclusionary filter, move everyone on your flist into the friends group en masse then go back and move Captain Chatty back to the "not in group" list. When you go to your friends page, there should be a little drop down menu in the navigation bar. Just select the filter you want, and go from there.

I use mine to strip communities from my flist if I don't have time to read everything.

gronklies.

This is one of those mornings where I get up and admire the hell out of ita-- I've had a low-grade, persistent migraine for the better part of a day and I'm exhausted and pretty much hating everyone and everything.

Still, there are cabana boys to post and Christmas dessert to choose.

And touching on the height conversation again, I've always been attracted to tall, somewhat lean men, and yet I ended up with the antithesis of that in RL. Funny how things like that work out.

But first, more coffee.

yawn I do love not having to get up to take kids to school. Yay!

I am 5'5" and DH is near 6'8". He says 6'7-3/4" which is good because he can clear most door frames. I don't notice how tall he is except when I see pictures of us or when he is chatting to someone his size.

I've been attracted to a wide variety of body types. DH is instantly smitten when he sees any woman over 6'.

Sorry about the headache, Barb. I rarely get them. I don't know how I would cope with constant pain. I'd surely be meaner.

There is no morning kindergarten at the school my mom works at today. The kids are going to be so disappointed to miss Mom's last day of work.

Another way to strip communities from your flist view is by adding "?show=p" (without the quotes) to the end of your flist URL, like so: stephl.livejournal.com/friends?show=p.

Barb, I hope you get some relief soon.

As for actual numbers, I'm 5'6", Daniel is 6'1". The shortest guy I dated was 5'10, the tallest was 6'5".

I think I may have wanted to say more, but the gronk, it burns.

Barb - ugh. Hope you can get some relief soon.

I'm extraordinary.

this is true. I will testify to it.

I was very amused by David's "Nutty and flea are tall" - Nutty is 5'6" and I am 5'11" which are very different to my mind. Nutty walks tall, though. Like a gunslinger.

mr. flea is 6'6" so even though I am quite tall for a woman we still have a 7 inch differential. He had dated short women but was pleasantly surprised to date "an alien from planet long" (as he once called me). I don't think I've ever dated a man more than an inch or two shorter than me, but then, I wasn't much of a dater and met mr. flea at 23.

I'm 5'8"ish and Tom is 6'1", so we are pretty close but he is still a nice bit taller than me, which I like very much.

Anne! We got your fruitcake- yum! Thanks!
