Height shouldn’t matter. But I’ve met him and there’s no way he’s even 5’8”.

That’s what I was thinking. The Gun Grabber Bloomberg is 5’-8”? No way.

I’d say 5’-6”, tops.

5-8 isn’t that short. I believe the average height for American men is 5-9. Men one standard deviation above — in other words, really tall men — are at least 6-2.

The lower standard deviation starts at 5-5, I believe. I’m working from memory here, so anyone please correct me.

I’m 6-1, so I’m a little crushed by being just one inch below being classed as tall.

On the other hand 6-1 is a good height for finding clothes than fit and most other purposes of everyday living.

And little old ladies are constantly asking me to reach for merchandise on the top shelf at Big Lots.
