You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

He is tiny. I loved the two guys crouching down to dance with him at the beginning of the number....

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I loved that too! I love the whole dance- I have been watching the version from David Letterman for weeks. I can't tell if he is only 5 feet tall or if they just cast all really tall people.

This free camp looks interesting for Buffista sprog in the 8-12 range who can get to an apple store: [link]

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Larroquette is tall. I'd guess the average male chorus member to be around 5'10". Daniel Radcliffe is probably in the Seth Green range.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Isn't that how they generally cast that role, though? Both Robert Morse and Matthew Broderick (who've both done it) are fairly short.

Height is often used as an indicator of age for stage and screen. Short guys play young longer.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Daniel Radcliffe is TINY!

I thought that, too, when I watched it. According to IMDB, he's 5'5" which seems comparatively correct to John Larroquette. He did do a really good job on the show.

I will say, I wasn't terribly impressed by any of the musicals this year. I would love to see Good People, though.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Huh. I did not know that.

But in real life, that hasn't applied to me. When I was in college everyone thought I was much younger. Once when working at a fast food place, someone asked me what year I was, and when I said "Junior", everyone assumed I meant a junior in high school, not college.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Oh, hey, Chikat, did you get my email yesterday?

When I was in college everyone thought I was much younger.

I was the other way around--in 4th grade, I had someone think I was a teacher, but only from behind; it was only after she saw me from the front that she realized who I was.
