Hopefully, you children got your father's legs and general athletic capability and my physical sturdiness and love for bizarre and lonesome activities such as long-distance running. Because with those four characteristics, you would almost certainly get at least a partial scholarship to at least an in-state school, maybe for running or maybe for your minds.
Am I making any sense right now?
What I meant to say was, have you ever stepped back for a minute, ignored the fact that you've known your father your entire lives and so think he's normal looking, and noticed how absurdly lanky his legs are?
I mean, he can bridge entire living-room furniture sets.
He can comfortably step over small cars.
He cannot fit under standard-sized tables in pubs.
I just want to make sure you appreciate the sheer length of these things. They come up to my shoulders. Somebody get me a stepladder, okay?
