John Wayne was short too.

The same goes for women, hearing they wore shoes 2 sizes too SMALL so they would look more petite as in having smaller feet for Hollywood Walk of Fame.

funny eh?

Yes but geeks know the truth by measuring how deep the imprints are and calculating his weight and then extrapolating his height from the results.

Man......I gotta get out more often....
