Miss_Feline_Tenticle Hey all what is vzone anyways? I have never heard of it before lol so how is everyone? VZones is a sort of chat/game program that you download and pay $10 a month to use. You get an avatar that you can dress and buy heads/bodies/items for and you earn tokens over time as well as by selling things to other members. It's animated, kind of like towns, where you run around and talk to other members, although much better graphics, and beautiful locales. And then there are numerous scheduled games you can play with other people, like bingo, slots, boggle, roulette, word search, acro, etc. and you can win prizes at these which you can keep or sell to other people. Every month the prizes change, and every weekend there are special prizes too that are more rare, so sell for lots more. And you can buy things from main stores and decorate your own turfs (homes.) Here's my vzones page with screenshots of my old turfs and new turfs. And let me see if I have a general screenshot I can show here.. http://www.geocities.com/mskabukiHere's a screenshot from 2003 of me playing bingo in someone's decorated turf.

And about Toni being underweight/height, I was always the smallest in my class until the summer before 5th and 6th grade when I had a growth spurt and grew 9 inches in one summer! Suddenly I was taller than one other person, and noticing that on the first day of school started a bond with my current best friend ever since that day!
Jason, Jade, and my niece Ella have all always been way under the weight/height charts too. It's normal for us. 3nodding

And, jumping off what fawN said, I was always the tallest kid in class until I was 13 and stopped growing. I'm 5'2", and the shortest member of my family.

Toni has always been tiny, and probalby always will be. When she was still very young, about 6 months, the doctor I had been taking her to started trying to tell me that something was wrong, which of course panicked me. And they made me have all kinds of tests done on her, and sent me to a specialist with her. He of course found nothing wrong, and I changed doctors shortly after.
There are tons of small people on both sides of the family, and I just figured shes taking after them. She's healthy and her current doctor said she's just fine the way she is, so I'm not going to worry myself over it again 4laugh 6 months of stress headaches and sleepless nights were enough for me biggrin

My sister was always way below everyone else on those height charts, she was a month early and all through primary school she was a head shorter than everyone else, and she hated it!
i think that's why she's so loud to be honest.
she was over the moon when she started secondary school and there were some girls she was taller than, there must be an awful lot of small people in this area then, as she's only 5 feet.
Personally i think it's because it's a rural area and suseptible to in-breeding rolleyes

Just found this... thought I would share it.
An Irishman went to London for a visit to the zoo. While there, he saw a man with an elephant act. The man claimed the elephant could look at a person and tell that person's age. The Irishman was very skeptical and said so, in no uncertain terms.
The man had the elephant look at a small boy and the elephant stamped its foot 9 times.
"Is that right?" he asked the boy.
"Oh yes," the boy said.
The Irishman was very loud, in his not believing that this was true. The man asked the elephant to tell the ages of several people, and each time the elephant stamped his foot and the people said he was correct. The Irishman got even louder and more abusive toward the man. Finally the man could take it no longer and wagered the Irishman that the elephant could look at him and tell him his age. The Irishman took him up on the wager.
The elephant looked real close at the Irishman, turned around, raised his tail and cut wind like you wouldn't believe, turned back around and stomped his foot twice. Where upon the Irishman stumbled back and with a sound of disbelief in his voice cried, "BeGabbers, he's right ... farty-two!""
