This morning at work, after enduring repeated odd comments and inquiries from a rather strange middle-aged man e.g. "can i put my bag on this bench?", "where do the children swim?", "i remember teaching my children how to swim thirty years ago, but i probably should have been certified to teach them; i don't think my s.c.u.b.a. certification was the right one", he left the pool. {or so i thought}.
He went into the locker room {sigh of relief; he was really starting to creep me out} only to return about ten minutes later {scared me to death} to say this to me: "Some words of encouragement for you: Paul from the New Testament was only 5'4" tall, and what a mighty man he was; so you shouldn't feel bad".
As if I have some sort of inferiority complex about my height . . . hardly. After he said this, it was time for my break. I went and hid in the guard room until I was sure he was gone.

Weird. It's interesting that he knows how tall Paul was. I wonder if he knew him personally.
Very weird. And Lois....hahahahahaha.
I was thinking along the same lines as Lois. How does he know how tall Paul was, where is this mentioned?
