    I was walking through Kroger last night and some short dude (5'2"-ish) asked me if I could get some diapers off a top shelf for him. Nobody else was around and he didn't speak great English, so I didn't want to leave him hanging. So despite my bum ankle, I jumped up and grabbed the diapers for him...and then did all I could not to crumple to the floor in pain.

    It's gonna be a while :(

    Nah, I'm 5-9, maybe 5-10 and I'm about average for the guys that come out and play. Don't worry about the height thing.

    btw, I ran this by Kam/Mig and their down

    I looked into buying those 5 gallon gatorade water dispensers, they run about $20 which is not bad at all, I'll volunteer to buy that and have someone alternate bringing a bag of ice that'll go for like a buck, and the other filling up a 5 gallon water jug at like 30 cents/gal every week.

    thoughts?

    no new people allowed, sorry.




























    the real answer is by the DePelchin Children's Center at 4950 Memorial Drive. Here's a google maps link (there's also another one a few pages back).

    http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=...111473,112.148438&ie=UTF8&t=h&z=14&iwloc=cent

    it's just north of memorial and west of shepherd. if you look between shepherd and bethje str, you see a baseball diamond and a concrete slab. the concrete is the court we play on.
