Dept. of Long-And-Tall

Long John and a tall chic

There is different things that can be long and tall. There are two domain-names that trying to beat eachother:
thelongestdomainname-intheworldandthensome-andthensomemoreandmore.com (the hyphens is put on not to crash the site's design) is the first competitor and thepersonwithanewideaisacrank-untiltheideasucceeds-by-marktwain.com the second.

Another thing is tall persons: Defen Yao", a Chinese girl at 7'8 1/2. Surely she would be able to score a couple of points in NBL.

Of course there is a site which check the Sites with longest running systems by average uptime. I mean: if a site is down I get mad. If it's not - I don't care.

And of course some geek did the World's Longest Palindrome 17,259 words with his programming skills. (A palindrome is a "A word, phrase, verse, or sentence that reads the same backward or forward.").

When media breaks one can think back on all the 633 episodes of Gunsmoke one have missed. The site Longest Running TV Shows have tracked the shows which have run 160 and more episodes.
