Tall Tales VIII: In Women's Chorus

Today while I was walking out of Women's Chorus, I had the funniest experience.  The conversation went like this:

Folder Partner:  (animatedly) Did you know BYU has a tall club?

Me: Yes!

Folder Partner:  We should totally join!

Me: Yeah we should!

Girl walking in front of us turning around to tell us we wouldn't be tall enough to qualify:  You have to beee . . . (her eyes fall upon me and almost pop out of her head) . . . yooouuuu. . .

She looked super bashful, and hurried away.

I cracked up.

Yes, I'm taller than 5'10"

Yes, I qualify to be in the tall club.

. . .

I was later talking to my little brother who said, "You know.  I think someday the short people will retaliate and form a club."

I replied, "They already did.  It's called the whole university."

Ha!
