Taller? What, like a giant?


I don't remember parking meters being so low.

    Wow, now you look like my family, all of us tower over everybody, and it kinda sucks.

    It looks like a reclaimed handicapped meter. Either that, or you grew very tall indeed in a short period of time. You'll have to be in waist-up scenes while walking on your knees from now on.

    Actually, have any actors ever had to do that? I know about compensating for short actors, but I haven't heard of compensating for very tall ones.

    I think that one musta been stuck into the cement like that. Either that or you have gotten a lot taller, and just didn't realize it!!! Parking meters are a sore subject with me however, so rock on Jorge!

    I knew eating those cucumbers from your garden would have residual effects...

    I once went in a bathroom that had a tiny little toilet the size of a child's training toilet.

    I have to say, I watched the Ace of Cakes ep last night, and hubby and I both commented on how tall you were honestly. What a coincidence you'd end up w/ a Mini-MEter.

    I agree, it might be a little person spot you're standing at... that or where the little clown car parks.

    Funny you should post that today. My husband and I were watching the LOST episode of Ace of Cakes last night and my husband thought you looked really tall...

    Maybe it's so you can pay from the car window?

    Or maybe you're just taller, ghost Jorge.

    I didn't know you still use parking meters in the US, especially such short ones.

    You should try water and some fertilizer. Maybe it'll grow taller ;)

    hahaha, that's hysterical. I don't think most parking meters are that low. At least, where I live, they aren't.

    Maybe there were budget cuts in steel poles and had to remove 1 ft from every meter?

    Sadly, in the news Friday:
    See photo: http://www.miamiherald.com/news/weird-news/story/1146685.html
    THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
    MOUNT PLEASANT, Wis. -- One southern Wisconsin homeowner is probably not in love with the Oscar Mayer wiener. The famed hot dog's Wienermobile crashed Friday into the deck and garage of a home in Mount Pleasant, about 35 miles south of Milwaukee.

    Police said the driver was trying to turn the Wienermobile around in the driveway and thought she was moving in reverse. But she instead went forward and hit the home. It sat in the driveway as if it were stuck in the garage Friday afternoon.

    No one was home and no one was injured. No citations were immediately issued.

    Both the home and vehicle suffered moderate damage, which Oscar Mayer spokeswoman Sydney Lindner says insurance will cover.
