I've never though of myself as short, but my dad and all of my uncles are taller than me. And I'm fairly sure my brother (who's about 3.5 years younger than me) is probably about an inch taller than me. My dad's much younger brother is about two inches taller than him.

Me: Almost exactly 6'0" (about 1.83m)
Mom: 5'5" (about 1.65m)
Dad: 6'2" (about 1.88m)

Dad: 6'2''
Mom: 5'4''
Me: 5'10''

I'm Significantly shorter than my dad. This makes sense since he's the odd one from a short family, and everyone in my mom's family is short.

Me: 1.84 (6'0")
Mom: 1.78 (5'10")
Dad: 1.75 (5'9")

My dad is actually shorter than my mum; but mum's side is quite big... I guess I'm the medium between them, medium height...

My family is, for the most part, so short, the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle governs determining our sizes.  Anyway: mom; 5'4", dad; 5'6, me; 5'7.  I have one brother who is 6'1" and another who is 5'10", but the rest of us asked Santa for shadows every Christmas.

Me: 5' 7''
Mom: 5' 5''
Dad: 5; 8''

Although I used to be so small that the doctors predicted I would only reach 5' 2'', so I guess I should be happy about that. Tongue

ba-da-boom.

So Werner Heisenberg was cruising along the Autobahn and he gets pulled over by a cop.  The cop walks up the to the car and asks Heisenberg to roll down the window.  "Sir, do you know how fast you were going?" the cop asks.  Heisenberg replies, "I have no idea, but I know exactly where I am."

The cop tells Heisenberg he was going 100 kph and suddenly Heisenberg is lost

Then the cop looks over the car and notices that Erwin Schrödinger is in the passenger seat.  He asks if the two men have anything in the trunk.

"A cat," Schrödinger replies.

The cop opens the trunk and yells "Hey! This cat is dead."

Schrödinger angrily replies, "Well he is now."
