He looked to be 19-20. He was probably 5'11". I'm no good at guessing weight, but he was probably about 4% body fat. Almost everyone is about 4% body fat here. They have a lot of hardships here, such as a lack of good internet access, they have to walk everywhere, and they don't have tasty treats.

Pedro offers you his protection...

Okay, that was in response to your LJ icon. I didn't read this yet, but I plan to. (Going out for Thai foodz).

Hope you can pass through the Bay Area sometime in the near(ish) future, mate.

Keep your ass down, Postmaster General. xD
