I'm still short enough that I cling to the half an inch as though it matters, but tall enough that I can be proud! But it got me thinking, how tall are you guys? Were you always tall/short? Thankfully, I'm still growing, although I don't hold high hopes (pun intended) considering both my parents are 2 inches below the average height of their respective genders.

I'm 5"10'- about average for an American. Growing up I was tall but I think junk food, beer, smokes, and drugs stunted my growth at about 14 or so.
