..... like there is something wrong with being short in the first place?! I love being 4' 11" (took me a while to get adjusted to it, but I got over it) cause I have an awesome job because of it!

Instead of a zipper it might be easier to install an inflatable bladder. An inflation tube could be extended to the large intestine and the pressure of the bladder could be regulated by the amount of beans you consumed the day before.

That would be perfect for SG's the more full of...Ummm, stuff you are, the taller you would be!!!

Course then most SG's would be over 7 foot tall!!!

Well that simple, you eventually put an upper height limit on rides like roller coasters have. Of course you make it high enough and "inflate" the SGs enough that they soon will be too tall to ride anything.

studies have shown that often the taller people as well as the smarter people get the best jobs or get a job offer.

Ah, but when you are "friends" with Mickey, short does you good - very good! Personally, I think it's the best job when employed at WDW.

Being the friend of a character looks like a blast. I got talking to a friend of Pluto's last night in the locker room and while it is very exhausting he loves what he does. With my height there are a few characters I could be friends with but I don't think I could handle the heat and some of the other aspects of the job.

The personal gain from it, as well as the exprience makes up for so much more when it comes to things like heat and such. Honest, there are some moments that just make you feel simply over the moon.

At Toontown Donald, Goofy, Pluto spent 15 minutes playing alone with a MAW family- just silly games like tag and dancing around, follow the leader and such. It was an amazing time and really meant a lot for us all. The parents laughed and smiled, goodness knows they probably needed it.

Minnie presented one of those special Tinkerbell pins to a women whose father passed shortly before the trip. She had mentioned that she wanted something small to bring back to leave on her father's grave when they returned. When the attendant overheard this, she slipped Minnie the pin and told the woman Minnie knew her story and had a gift for her. When Minnie opened her hand, the screams of delight from the woman was that equivalent to a Miss America crown winner. This woman hugged and kissed Minnie, the attendant, her family, and nearly everyone else who was nearby. You could tell that moment meant everything to this woman and her family.

The fact that I had a hand in giving people those moments of happiness, that is far worth the hot days, SG's, and all the down sides. One truly gets a magical feeling after such things.

I'm not the most athletic person, but I can take it. Maybe it's the years of dance training I've had and the fact I am a theater and performance person, but a good many of Friends are not trained performers.

I can't help but think this implant has to look funny. Note, there are no pictures yet. I hope there never are.

Goodness, that sounds gross.
