this title has nothing to do with the post

You know, you hardly ever see any tall old people, and it troubles me, because I'm tall and tall people are obviously superior to shorter people (that's why we let you shorties look up our noses) - so what happens to all the vertically advantaged people?

Sure, some of them don't get enough calcium and shrink with age like an old peach, but that can't account for more than 17%* of formerly tall people

And maybe another 9% die from head wounds they incur while getting into their golf carts

But where are the rest of them?

It worries me.

Are they being systematically rubbed out by short people, tired of looking up into their noses?

Do they die faster because they are closer to heaven and obviously favored by the gods?

It's at a point where I get excited whenever I see a tall old lady and I go up and hug her and tell her to keep on keepin' on - then we do the super secret tall girl handshake and go our separate ways.
