Toerag went to Dr. 'Deer,
For his annual physical exam.
He wanted to be extra sure,
He was fit (and still a man).

Dr. 'Deer asked poor ol' Toe,
"How much do you weigh?"
Toe replied "160 or so,"
"Let's see what the scales say."

Dr. 'Deer snickered soft,
When the scales said "265".
Toe was just "a little off",
In his estimate of his size.

"OK, Toe, how tall are you?"
Dr. 'Deer then inquired.
"I'm at least 6 foot 2"
Said Toerag, much inspired.

Dr. 'Deer then measured Toe,
And noted, "Five foot eight"
Not as tall as some men go,
As Toe's ego began to deflate.

Then Dr. 'Deer measured Toe's BP,
"It's high.  Did you know that?"
Toerag replied "It ought to be,"
"I've gone from tall and lean to short and fat!"

Poor ol' Toe.  He's always had a problem estimating his "size".

Very cute...not that it means anything but did you know a dollar bill is six inches long?

Hmm..wonder how much a Toe is worth?

I'd say that would make Toe about 50 cents!

Well played Sir John.
