Just curious - did you know of any little people (dwarfs) that were JW's?

I didn't, but I just saw a great program on PBS that was a "20 years later" follow-up on a documentary film from 1982 about dwarfs, that's what got me wonderin'.

Never met any little people small in stature; but I met plenty of JW's who were small minded!

I do know one who lives in holland somewhere. Do not see any relevance by the way...

Two JW midgets around here.

One is a talented singer and taxi-driver, famous for his karaoke-taxi. (Appeard on a TV-show just a few weeks ago.)

The other guy is a part time stand-up comedian.

I think so. I seem to have a vague memory of it. Can't be of much more help.

Very embarrasing, one of them came over to me and really liked my dog, a small poodle, so he asks me, "What kind of a poodle is it?" and I respond "Dwarf!" ...... and felt me growing red down to my toes ...........

There was a midget in a neighbouring congo, he got married with a normal height woman and had two chidren.

No but I have come across some giants. I remmeber one fondly from my childhood - I used to walk up his legs and then he'd flip me upside down.

Crumpet... were they ACTUALLY a giant (im thinking Dahl's BFG?) or were they just adults? I wish i there were actual Giants, that could be fun. As long as they didnt eat people.

I know this doesn't qualify but there was three of us "sisters" that sat together at the meetings. I was the tallest at 5', D was 4'10", and S was 4'11"! No kidding! It was even funnier when D's study came on Sundays. She was even shorter than D was but we never asked her how tall she actually was!

I loved going out in FS with them because I so often got put into a car group with this one sister from our bookstudy group who was WELL over six feet, and I felt so stupid having to look "up" at her (or standing NEXT to her) when at the doors!
