So you're saying they're tall

Nice write-up on American University's--OK, I'll say it--"twin towers," Ann and Claire Recht, on sioncampus.com. In case you didn't know, they're identical twins, and they're both 6'7". They're so tall (How tall are they?) that they're in the Guiness Book of Records as the world's tallest living female twins.

I have to say I'm a little disappointed though that the article couldn't at least be familiar with the game:

"And while blocking serves and spiking balls may be easy for the pair, ducking into class unnoticed, meeting boys and blending in on campus can be a little trickier."

"Blocking serves"? When was the last time you could block a serve in college volleyball? Were you ever allowed to do that?

The article goes on to give us interesting stats on the respective heights of the rest of the Recht family.

Parents Erich and Josephine are well over six feet, and older siblings Kyle (25), Warren (23) and Martha (21) are 6-9, 6-8 and 5-11, respectively.

C'mon, Martha! Only 5'11"? It's like you're not even trying. Now you know what Peyton Manning's mom must feel like.
