I think 5'9-5'9.5 is right for Mel, I mean come on, lets be honest, we have never seen him look short. To me he has always appeared to look around average.

He only looked 5'11" in lifts LOL! I always thought he was 5'8" but on occasions he does look nearer 5'10". I'd have probably said 5'9".

He could look a solid 5ft11 next to Danny Glover at times but of course thats lifts. He seems like a solid 5ft9 guy.

Hard to pinpoint exactly but I'd say 5'9.5 sounds right. Hes always wearing a thick heel and his small frame makes him look shorter than what he is.

JD yes when I watched Mel in Mad Max and Road Warrior he looked pretty tall but he was wearing motorcycle boots in those movies. But when I saw him in Lethal Weapon he looked shorter, that could be because he was next to Danny Glover alot and Danny is like 6'2, so its hard to tell

No I'm not wrong. Glover seemed to be about 4 inches taller than him and Glover is or was atleast 6'3". Cowboy boots have 2 inch heels, which give 1 inch more than regular shoes.

No sodapop everyone else had shoes that added atleast 1 inch too so who cares if his shoes gave him 2 inches. They only gave him a 1 inch advantage. Everyone else didn't run around barefoot.
I saw Gibson only 4-5 inches shorter than 6'3", 6'3.5" Danny Glover in that movie.

Risingforce, you missed my point, yes he was wearing cowboy boots but he looked 5'9" with the boots on. Cowboy boots give you about 2 inches. So that means Mel is 5'7". I am 5'9.5" and with Cowboy boots on I'm almost 6 feet tall and Mel did not look close to 6ft

I just watched The Patriot again with Heath Ledger and Mel looks a solid 177cm-178cm through out the entire film. Ledger looked 184cm-185cm range. Both of their footwear looked normal when in shot. Several standing side by side shots between Ledger and Gibbo confirm to me now that Gibbo is 177cm/178cm barefoot or 5'10" and Ledger 6'1".Awesome film btw.

1 million out of 500 million net worth is like a couple bucks to him. I don't think a lot of the Hollywood community likes him anymore, he got drunk and said naughty stuff. Didn't he tell Glenn to do something that is impossible with one's body? He needs a bar of soap for his mouth.

i do agree 5'8 is ridiculous. Like rising said imagine jeremey piven, or mark wahlberg at 6ft. I guess 5'9.5 is closer to the truth. He isn't a full 2 inches taller than robert downey junior, but he isn't 5'9 flat either.

Tell that to Jim Carrey sodapop. The only way I could buy Mel as low as 5'8" is if guys like Tom Cruise and Robert Downey Jr. are 5'7", which is possible, but I don't think it's likely.
I think Mel is likely in the 5'9"-5'10" range. He doesn't look as short as guys like 5'7", 5-8ish guys Cruise, Downey, Mark Wahlberg, Jeremy Piven ect.

weird....i'm not an expert on lifts/boots, but i'd imagine it would be rather difficult to maneuver. then again, i'm rather weak so there's no way i'd be able to handle the extra bulk inside my shoes while doing stunts....chuck and mel on the other hand were pretty well built up, so i guess it could've worked for them. especially if the shoes were custom built for that purpose, maybe with soft, lightweight material such as some sort of cork, allowing the wearer to be light on their feet when needed.
again, this all just speculation on my part....

Interestingly enough I remember a shoemaker saying once that Chuck Norris asked him to make his cowboy boots with built in lifts so he could look tall in the fight scenes.
I'm back to thinking that Mel is a minimum 5'9" though and maybe more like 5'10". Certainly not over 5'10" though.

Brad,the scence in Tequila Sunrise is when first Mel is at the beach with his son.Than the son has an accident in the water.So Mel is carrying him in his house(barefoot)and Michelle Pfeiffer walks beside him.If you watch the movie,take a look at the scences with Kurt Russel(who's in real life a good friend of Mel).Looks like the same high.
Years ago i found a picture in the web,where Mel and Kurt walks along a pavement,both were joking and have a lot fun.In that pic Mel was maybe an inch taller than Kurt,but it's possible he wear lifts.Mels height is astonishing.

Right now I've changed my mind and I think he's 5'10" too. He can look 6 feet and I've never seen him in footwear bigger than 2 inch cowboy heels. In them he towered over 5'8" Rene Russo(in heels) and he was only 2-3 inches shorter than 6'3" Danny Glover at the Lethal Weapon 3 premiere.
Even in the Lethal Weapon movies Glover rarely had more than 4 inches on Mel.

He looked 5'11" usually in the Lethal Weapon films. Then again his 2 inch cowboy boots gave him about an inch advantage over Glover's shoes. We also don't know if he had anything in those boots. Regardless he never looked under 5'10" in those movies and usually 5'11" so I'll say 5'9" minimum barefoot for Mel.

There were a few more where Carrey was slouching even more and Mel did look the same, but that's because of the slouch.

In the last 2 Mel looks the closest to Carrey's height although Carrey is slouching horribly in the last picture. Although Mel no longer has the camera advantage and it does seem that even with equal posture that Jim would only have 1.5" standing straight. It doesn't look like Mel is standing on anything to me.
Carrey at 6'1.5" + 1 inch dress shoes and Mel at 5'10" + 3 inch elevators makes the most sense based on those pictures. Mel sure does seem like he's every bit of the 5'10" he claims sometimes.

I'm not sure, I don't think so. Maybe he just has big lifts. Although Mel did look about the same height as Charlie Sheen that same height. Maybe Sheen wore lifts too?
I'm starting to think Mel isn't under 5'9". He doesn't look as short as a guy like Tom Cruise or Robert Downey Jr. to me. He pulled off looking 5'10.5", 5'11" next to Denzel in pretty normal looking shoes. In the Lethal Weapon movies it looks like he'd measure atleast 6'0" in his cowboy boots and the Jim Carrey picture also suggests he could measure atleast 6 ft in footwear.

Yeah, factoring in the posture and camera advantage I'd say Mel looks like he'd be about 1.5" shorter than Carrey there if all things were equal.

even though you can't see their feet, i really get the impression that mel is on a slightly(?) elevated platform compared to Carrey.

There were some pictures from 2003 which also had Carl Weathers in them were Sly was surprisingly taller than his brother. Weathers was about a half inch taller than Sly and maybe 1.5 or 2 inches taller than Frank Stallone in them. Frank usually is taller, but in recent years I've seen Sly taller at a few events.

I always believed Mr. T's 5-11 claim. Here he is with 6-2 Gene Hackman who is closer to the camera and wearing cowboy boots. Click Here Looks about 3.5 inches shorter at first, but defintley less when you consider it's most likely that Hackman is getting an advantage either from being closer to the camera or his boots.
I really don't think Stallone's brother is a good guy to give a set height of 5-10.5. It's not like we've seen many pictures of Frank Stallone and celebrities with pretty well known heights. It's also very possible that Frank Stallone is 6 ft like he's been listed, that's also what Glenn estimated him at. Of course he could easily be 5-10.5, but there certainly haven't been nearly enough pictures posted of him to give him 5-10.5 for sure. So I wouldn't say Sly's brother rules out anything 5-10+ for Sly.

James, true. Stallone's brother is the same height as 5'10"ish Mr.T who's also taller than Sly. That's one reason why I can't believe 5'10" for Sly. Mel I think is the same height as Stallone, give or take a half inch.

He'll no doubt be in New York to promote his new movie this year so I'm sure you'll see him again. At 53 he shouldn't have lost much height considering he still seems to be in fairly good shape and he's never weighed much or had noticeable injuries.

Here are some pictures of Sly and Mel.
First the most are of the 3 pictures. Sly looks about 2 inches taller here.

Now another picture from the same day as the last.

they look the same height there, although he could be tip toeing a bit to go from being shorter in the last picture to the same height in this picture especially since his posture seems worse in this picture.
Those pictures are kind of useless though without knowing their footwear. In the early 90's Mel always wore cowboy boots with 2 inch heels. Sly wore them a lot too around that era but he also obviously has worn elevator shoes a lot. Who is taller depends on their footwear.
Mel I think could be anywhere from 5'8.5" to 5'10". Sly I think is anywhere from 5'10" to 5'10.75". With Sly I don't buy the short rumors, with Mel I'm unusure.
The reason I'm so unsure with Mel is that as you said it's tough to tell if he wears elevator shoes or not.

By the way Doug Mel has cowboy boots which usually have 2 inch heels. Glenn says he's usually in normal shoes so then that puts Mel closer to 5'8.5" here.

Yeah, that's what makes Mel tricky. I'm not sure if he often wears lifts. If he does then he does an excellent job as far as footwear. He rarely looks out of the 5'10"-5'11" range though.

Then again he has sometimes appeared to me to be several inches taller, the more I think about it he was had pulled off a 5'10"-5'11" look at times. I think Gibson is indeed one of the hardest to pin down as yes if he is wearing lifts it isn't as obvious as Stallone!!! I;ve seen one newspaper say he was as low as 5'7". I wonder what the medias fascination is with portraying Gibson, Stallone and Cruise little guys?

Looks 5 ft 9.5 next to Glenn, Glenn looks a little star struck!! Funny I always thought he was 5'8" too. Probably because I'm used to him looking short compared to Danny Glover and other tall actors.

I've seen numerous Signs premiere pictures. They really aren't that rare. I posted some full body shots where Mel and Joaquin Phoenix are about the same height actually.
Right now I think Gibson is 5'8.5", 5'9". At that height he could pass for 5'11" in cowboy boots like in those Lethal Weapon movies. If I see the full body shot where he looks 6'0" with Ron Howard then maybe I'll change my mind to 5'10". I think it'd help if we were more sure if he wore lifts. He used to wera cowboy boots but that doesn't mean he wore lifts.

Interesting Glenn. I always ruled out 5-11 for Mel but 5-8 to 5-10 is possible. I think Leno is a solid 5'11", no more, no less. Clooney had horrendous posture in that video so it'd be hard to compare him. I think George is 5'11.5" though.
Mel has strangely looked 5-7ish in pictures like with M Night in the cornfield and if he was 2 inches shorter than Russell then he'd be looking 5'7" there. Obviously he's not under 5'8" but he can strangely look it. He often looked atleast 5'11" even in full body shots in Lethal Weapon too. Then again who knows what he had in his cowboy boots in those movies.

From other film captures I've studied of him standing next to Steve Bisley (5t8.5) in Mad Max he just about looks equal. Biker footwear they were both wearing looks identical (remember this was back in 1979 before he hit fame, so prob. wouldn't be in lifts) From that, all 5ft8 claiments by the press hold true for Gibson cos a very modest 5ft9.5 / 177cm man (even 175cm) would not be called a short man as often as he does, surely?

in other words, was there really any chance of m night saying "no, he's certainly 5'11, trust me".......that would've made things truly interesting, but mel *NOT* being 5'11 is something that i think everybody here is sure of....

James there are atleast 4 big reasons why people would make fun of Cruise's height anyway.
1.He's arguably the biggest movie star of the last 20-25 years so people will look for anything there is to make fun fo him about. Height is a big point of emphasis for many people so Cruise being 5-8 or even 5-7 would be an inch or 2 below average. The biggest movie star being below average in height will obviously be of interest to many. Michael J Fox also is too short to even pass for average but Cruise is still tall enough to look 5-9 or 5-10 on screen which is average. So when people know he's below average it's a big story while everybody can tell Michael J Fox is short just by watching his movies or shows.
2.Tom Cruise has been married to 3 woman taller than him. Back in the 80's many people talked about Mimi Rogers being as tall or taller than him at 5-8 or a bit over. Then Nicole Kidman at 5-10.5, 5-11 towered over him especially in heels. Having your wife appear 3-4 inches taller than you for a decade will make you seem even shorter. Now of course Katie Holmes at 5-9 being taller than Cruise is always written about. So one of the biggest stars having wives as tall or taller than you for 20 years will obviously be an interesting to people.
3.Tom Cruise is one of the biggest male sex symbols of the last 20-25 years, much like Pitt and Clooney. You mentioned Pitt possibly wearing lifts because his female fans expect him to be tall. Well I'm sure Cruise's female fans expect him to be 5-9 or 5-10 so they're suprirsed at how short he is at 5-7 or 5-8.
4.Cruise also was marketed as an action hero after Mission Impossible and it's sequels as well as Minority Report, The Last Samurai ect. People expect action heros to be 6 feet or taller so even taller action stars like Sly, Mel Gibsons, Van Damme and even Arnold get short comments. Cruise at 5-7 or 5-8 certainly seems shorter than people would expect for that reason as well.
There are numerous reasons why Cruise at 5-8 or a little under gets made fun of for being short. Most of those reasons apply to Mel Gibson but he doesn't get made fun of as much because he's likely taller than Cruise.
James there are atleast 4 big reasons why people would make fun of Cruise's height anyway.
1.He's arguably the biggest movie star of the last 20-25 years so people will look for anything there is to make fun fo him about. Height is a big point of emphasis for many people so Cruise being 5-8 or even 5-7 would be an inch or 2 below average. The biggest movie star being below average in height will obviously be of interest to many. Michael J Fox also is too short to even pass for average but Cruise is still tall enough to look 5-9 or 5-10 on screen which is average. So when people know he's below average it's a big story while everybody can tell Michael J Fox is short just by watching his movies or shows.
2.Tom Cruise has been married to 3 woman taller than him. Back in the 80's many people talked about Mimi Rogers being as tall or taller than him at 5-8 or a bit over. Then Nicole Kidman at 5-10.5, 5-11 towered over him especially in heels. Having your wife appear 3-4 inches taller than you for a decade will make you seem even shorter. Now of course Katie Holmes at 5-9 being taller than Cruise is always written about. So one of the biggest stars having wives as tall or taller than you for 20 years will obviously be an interesting to people.
3.Tom Cruise is one of the biggest male sex symbols of the last 20-25 years, much like Pitt and Clooney. You mentioned Pitt possibly wearing lifts because his female fans expect him to be tall. Well I'm sure Cruise's female fans expect him to be 5-9 or 5-10 so they're suprirsed at how short he is at 5-7 or 5-8.
4.Cruise also was marketed as an action hero after Mission Impossible and it's sequels as well as Minority Report, The Last Samurai ect. People expect action heros to be 6 feet or taller so even taller action stars like Sly, Mel Gibsons, Van Damme and even Arnold get short comments. Cruise at 5-7 or 5-8 certainly seems shorter than people would expect for that reason as well.

The dog was like a smaller horse, to inflate Gibson's height. Robert Conrad had animals, people, places & things around him smaller to make him look taller.

Why does he get so much flack if he is truly 5ft9.75? Yes, it's below the 6ft+ leading man ideal, but it's not a height that warrants constant small comments - guy's that are 5ft9 - 10 tend to get 'accepted' eventually like Daniel Craig. Gibson, in the same constant raptorish fashion that eats Cruise, is always referenced for his lack of size in every magazine paragraph.

I wasn't suggesting that Phoenix was 5-7, just mentioning that he was often listed at that height. Phoenix is a strong 5-8 in my opinion. Hopkins always struck me as a 5-9ish guy so that makes sense.

I'm glad you know M Night's height because I was curious myself.
I don't know if I've seen Mel look shorter than he does here
Click Here
Mel looks only 5-7.5, maybe a weak 5-8 there.
That's odd that Phoenix looked 5-10 in '97. Maybe he was wearing lifts then. He does give the impression of being taller than 5-8 a lot of times. But if he claims 5-8 and looked it to you 2 years ago then that seems likely. I've heard 5-7 a lot for Phoenix actually.
What's funny is that Leung once said he read Phoenix claim 5-11! That has to be among the worst height claims of any celebrities. He said it was around the time of Gladiator.

ACG, is the picture you're referring to one of these?

Here is my best job enlarging it

That looks like Mel to me.
Right now Sly is about 1.5" taller but he's gaining a big advantage from standing closer to the camera and posture.
Mel looks like he'd be as tall or taller standing closer to the camera with good posture but it's hard to tell what the difference would be exactly if everything was equal.

5-8 flat is certainly possible too. 5-7 is likely just an illusion. 5-7 would put him shorter than Tom Cruise which seems like a stretch.
And 5-8 flat would put him at the same height as Cruise, which is also a stretch...Mel never looks nearly as short as Cruise, and in the few pics of them actually together, Mel is at least a solid 2 inches taller than Tom...

Sly taller in ALL the pics with Mel RF??
Click Here
If anything Mel looks slightly taller then Sly, not by much, but i can't see Sly as being taller. His eyeline is higher, as is the top of his head. At worst i can see them at the same height in that picture. Thats not to mention Sly is standing much straighter and slightly closer to the camera. Mel to me, would definately be taller then Sly if he straightened up in that photo.
Granted in the other 2 pics Sly looks slightly taller but he is standing military while Mel is slouching, Sly is closer to the camera also which makes the difference look much greater, my views anyway.

So it sounds like Mel isn't the nicest guy.
That's interesting about all of the 5-7 sightings.
I wish someone could find those Kurt Russell pictures. The Jim Carrey pictures however were illusions. His head looks unusually big there because he's closer to the camera and he's standing straight while Carrey is slouching. In reality he was closer to 5-11 then.
Maybe he's not as big of a lift wearer as we originally thought though. I think he wears them less than Sly or Brad Pitt at the very least. Maybe it wasn't correct to assume he wore lifts.
There's no doubt that he can look 5-10 or 5-11 at times even without illusions so he could be 5-10. It just depends on if he often wears lifts or not. 5-8 flat is certainly possible too. 5-7 is likely just an illusion. 5-7 would put him shorter than Tom Cruise which seems like a stretch.

Mel could be 5-10 but nothing over it in my opinion. Sly I think is 5-10.75
I'll look for the picture you're talking about but can you post the full body shot of Mel and Ron Howard?

Denzel's shoes
Click Here
Mel's shoes aren't obvious elevator shoes but he certainly could have lifts in those. Meanwhile Denzel is clearly in normal shoes and he's slouching in every picture.
Denzel slouching is atleast 2 inches taller than Mel. You've said that you think Denzel is most likely 6-0 Glenn because he's given illusions of being under 5-11 to you and your peers.
If you don't notice posture then Mel could look tall there but he was 2-3 inches shorter than Denzel that night. The only possible way Mel was reaching 6-0 that night in shoes is if Denzel is a legit 6-1 and even then he would be barely reaching 6-0 in shoes. Granted even with lifts Mel would probably get 2" or a little over max from those shoes.
Still I don't think he reached 6-0 that night.
The picture I posted where Mel and 5-9 Charlie Sheen were pretty much the same height was also from the night he posed with Jim Carrey which backs up what I said about Mel's height there being an illusion because he was closer to the camera and Carrey was slouching.
Here Mel looks about the same height as Ron Howard. He may be about half an inch taller but then again Howard isn't standing as straight
Click Here
Click Here
Here is Mel in cowboy boots with big heels
Click Here
He does look to have about 3 or 3.5 inches on Rene Russo who should be about 5-9.25, 5-9.5 in those shoes but her knees are bent and she's slouching while he's standing perfectly straight.
That's why I'm still not convinced he can look 6-0 or 6-1 without the other person slouching.
If the Ron Howard picture you're referring to shows otherwise then that'll make him trickier but for now I think he's a strong 5-8 guy who can look 5-10 to 5-11 in cowboy boots or lifts.
If you met him and were sure he was taller like you are with Sly then I wouldn't be saying that but you say that it's just as possible that he's 5-8. So I believe he is around that height for now. You know I take your sightings as the best proof so if you meet him again in '09 and say that 5-8 is impossible then I'll agree.
Here is Mel and Morgan Freeman who you say looks 6-2 now.

Freeman standing straight would probably have about 4 or 4.5 inches on Mel. I don't know what they had on their feet that night either.
I saw that bizarre video with Leno, the othet guy was Clooney. Mel was almost as tall as Leno. He also looked almost Clooney's height. Clooney was in basketball shoes and had horrendous posture though. Still standing straight George is about 5-11.5. Maybe with the slouch he was closer to 5-10 then though.

Even before Mel achieved super-star status with the Lethal Weapon series, he was concious of his lack of height! In Australia he always wore cowboy boots or the like to give him an extra 2 inches!1
I'm sure today Mel has a vast range of elevator shoes in ALL styles to give him an extra 2 or 3 inches.
When he arrived back in Sydney after making Mrs Soffel in Canada,he was photographed at the airport with Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell. Now I know Kurt Russell is 5' 8", and Mel was a good 2 inches shorter than him!
So he must have had just ordinary shoes on that day!!
There is no way Mel is anywhere near 5' 10". Just wishful thinking eh?

Gibson is not that much closer to the camera. Either Mel has a BIG chest or he is wearing 5 sets of clothes underneath that leatherjacket. Nice jacket BTW.
He's not small-chested, but this large, wide body here is an illusion of the picture, a result of shadows, angle, position, etc.

@metric: Mel is turned at an angle that would make his chest look much wider than glenn's. glenn is standing straighter and at more of a profile, while mel is slouched and at about a 3/4 view to the camera. AND mel's jacket looks way bulkier, you can see it looks a good few sizes too big on him. all those things give the illusion of mel being a big guy(in relation to size, height). but i may be completely wrong on all this, glenn: do you remember what mel looked like build wise(if you could tell behind all the extra clothing layers?) was mel "buffer" than you expected? i wouldn't think so, as you seem to be smiling while mel threatens you.....j/k

Look at the size of Mels chest compared to Glenn. He is BIG! Must have been lifting some heavy iron. I think he is 5'9". And with his build probably near 200 lbs. His bench must be around 300 lbs. Go Mel.

yeah i think Mel is around 5'8.5-5'9.5. I dont see him actually as a short average guy but a tall average type of guy. 5'9 range could sometimes look 5'10-5'11 given a certain body type. A good example of a 5'9 guy who looks tall is Wesley Snipes.

i never cared before about height but after finding this website i started to "enjoy" finding height of actors and peoples, i am a very perfectionist person and so i study and look at things very carefully, it comes naturally to me dunno. :)
btw if we agreed on everything then that wouldn't be fun, you say 170cm tom cruise i say 172cm it's fun to debate because in rare occasions i thought he is 170cm sometimes 168 sometimes 173...i just thought of sticking him to 172cm and forget about it.
but if you thought TOM is 170cm its no problem, maybe he is lol
keep up the good work.

In those pics with Weaver, he looks about the same height as her (if they both took their shoes off), but I'm guessing his lifts about equal her heels. If she's 5'11", he's 5'10".

Exactly Glenn! If we would have 100 % figures on heights this site wouldn't even exist and if it would surely without a forum! Different people see different things, but some people have absolutely no clue about height and how to judge it. Some people will think they are 5'10" themselves (if never measured for example) if they have a friend who slouches but are 5'7" themselves...If they would look into a mirror standing next to 5'10" person the difference is obvious even if the 5'10" guy is a bad sloucher...3 inches is a lot people. At least when it omes to height!

I think we know that all actors who are under 5-7 say they are 5-7 or even 5-8 if they have the body type to get away with it. When they actually are 5-7 they wear lifts and elevator shoes and there's no way to tell if they're 5-7 or 5-10.

No, 5'8 it's exaggerated. He's a solid 5'9 but I think 5'9.5 can be his real height. 5'9.5 = 176.5cm I don't know if he reaches 177cm but he looks at least 176cm with Jason Isaacs who stands as tall as he can :

Okay, I didn't get the full story, made an assumption, and made an ass out of myself. No, Glenn, English is my primary language. Unlike you, I know how to use it properly, and I will most likely be way more successful in my life than someone who sleeps all day and then takes pictures for a website an night. Notice how Rob was the only person who bothered to correct me in a nice way. He gave me the whole story, whereas you other people were quick to scorn and pass judgement. Hate is a sign of ignorance and an unintelligent person. Get a life. If you don't have something nice to say, then don't say anything at all. This site if for enjoyment, and people like you make it unenjoyable. Glenn, I know I was first to start the argument between us, but I was also the first to appologize. I'll say it again. I'm sorry. I hope we can move on and start using the site for its intended purposes. I respect you and all that you do for this site, but it perturbs me when you act hypocritically. If I remember correctly, you pointed out that I "act fresh behind my computer" (whatever that means), but your doing the same thing I'm doing--arguing behind the safety of a computer. So let's just call this silly little argument what it is and move on, and hopefully we can act friendly to each other on this site.
Okay, I didn't get the full story, made an assumption, and made an ass out of myself. No, Glenn, English is my primary language.

Aaron stop misinterpreting quotes. Mel Gilbson never said he was 5'8", he just said they listed him as 5'8"...

Editor Rob yeah, he was 'annoyed' at the newspaper claiming he was 5ft 8, that's why he went to the bother of showing his liftless shoe and standing up with parkinson in his attempt to 'squash' the 5ft 8 idea...it was his attempt at putting the height debate to rest...of course the debate is never ending!

Glenn, I was just testing you. This why not too many people like you. You have such a short temper. It's happened in the past on this site. I just wanted to see if you learned anything. For a grown up, you sure act like a five year old. "come to nyc, and i'll shut your mouth for you"--you're willing to fight someone you don't know. That's not a good idea. You don't know me. I could be a killer for all you know, but I'm going just take the high road on this one. I'm sorry for fighting with you over nothing. There I said it, and now we can get on with our lives.
