Have you ever stood in front of one of those carnival mirrors that make you look thinner. I'm assuming you hustled right past the one that makes everything wider, until your eyes settled on the Magic One and you took your stance.

There you were, thin. You were also eight feet tall (but a very slim eight feet) If you moved forward or back, you could create the illusion of a nice elongated neck (say 38 inches), or the waistline of a bird. A flamingo. True, it wasnt your fantasy body, but it was a thinner one.
