    Talking The best compliment!

    I was out on my daily 3 mile walk yesterday and as I was leaving to PO and a man going in said "it's the highlander" I was taken by suprise but thanked him very much and I felt 7ft tall (I am 6ft 5in) all the way home.
    This time of year "it's you must be cold". So something positive feel good, not that I get much negitive crap.

    That is excellent a very nice compliment indeed.

    a three mile walk?
    I went on my daily three mile car ride, where I drive very slow and pretend that I'm exercising...
    That's really cool though! I bet you finished faster with the extra bounce in your step.

    Six, five? On my monitor you are barely over an inch tall. Cool compliment.
    Cowards die many times before their deaths; the valiant never taste of death but once. Of all the wonders I yet have heard, it seems to me most strange that men should fear; seeing that death, a necessary end, will come when it will come. --William Shakespeare, Julius Caesar

    Cool - The unexpected compliments are the best. I also get a kick when someone correctly notices the tartan of the day.

    Merry Christmas!
