Wish Susan would quit saying, "I'm only five feet four"........

Isn't that "average"? And a lot of us would consider that tall (!)

Compared to the models, Susan is petite. I think that is her point.

She's proud of her height or lack thereof.

I also think that when they repeat stuff, it's for the consideration of the new viewer. That's just info for people who wonder, and are new.

She's on the high end of petite - I would have loved to have gotten over 5 ft. tall and had those few more inches.

I'm only 5.4 and I don't consider that average. I'd give anything for a few more inches. I hate being so short.

I love being a petite at 5 ft. tall. Have never wanted to be tall.

QualityGal, I too think a lot of the repetition is to make sure new viewers and channel surfers hear everything that is being said. For instance, When Josie Moran is on in the AM and again in the PM, her spiel is almost word for word the same. This is true for all of the vendors for the most part.

I is not a good thing but it is not a bad thing either, just annoying to all day or night viewers.

Have a terrific day!

Don't worry, be Happy!

No, Susan is still short. Have you looked at the young ladies recently? The 18 year old girls where I live are TALL. They are very often taller than the majority of the boys. Do you see that in your area?

My husband and I have both noticed it in the girls graduating high school around here. They are FAR taller than girls used to be--and we are talking MOST of them. It is rare to see someone even Susan's height.
