When you post an image using HTML you don't have to include dimensions unless you are trying to size it up or down.

True, but if you post an image using WIDTH= and HEIGHT= in the IMG SRC tag, the page loads faster because the browswer knows how much space to allow for the image (it doesn't have to wait for the image to load completely before proceeding with the rest of the page content.)

(I'll bet he must think he's taller when he's lying down.)

If the researcher has a Harvard MBA he would probably come up with the average consumption of a customer in terms of bars per square-foot-year.

If the researcher was really bright he'd be using short women:

Why?

Short people cuddle better because they have a smaller surface area to unit volume ratio; in other words more of us is on the outside.

True, but for this reason:

In a short person, the ratio of surface area to volume is larger. This means that one radiates more heat and is therefore cooler.

Therefore, to keep warm, short people need to cuddle together to conserve thermal energy.

Yes. But cuddling is outside adjacency (don't go there!), so when a short person cuddles they do it more efficiently.

I hadn't seen these signs in Las Vegas but I was in NYC in mid-July and saw them all over the place. Disgusting! I am a strong advocate of young, fit, goodlooking women in states of undress. This ad campaign is stomach turning! :-)

Awww, poor baby, you had to suffer so :)

To all of the male critics posting on this thread: I must assume you are all rail-thin with abs like iron. I am sure you will post pictures of yourselves in a state of undress so we all may judge.

Speaking for myself, should I attain a size 8, I will be quite happy, regardless of the prevalence for those far skinnier.

And men wonder why women are sometimes quite cynicial....

You see, Miss Marple, I need to find a skinny girl so that we can average out to something reasonable.
