Saw this today, handwritten sign on a lamppost:
-------------My name is Jay. I am 6 feet 4 inches tall. I am looking for help selling two books I wrote.[Phone number]-------------
Still wondering why his height is relevant.

How high up was the sign?

maybe he wanted to show people that despite his freakish height, he managed to bend his back almost 90 degrees in order to sit & write a book like normal people...
