I was just taking an online survey about snack brands ("which of the following potato chip brands have you heard of?" etc.) and out of the blue it asked me for my height and weight. That was random.

Upon further reflection, maybe that was because they're trying to figure out whether I'm overweight? To correlate relative degree of fatness or skinniness with how much I know about snack products and how often I eat them? Hmm.

I have to admit I totally fudged the weight part. I have no idea how much I weigh right now. I pretty much made up a number out of thin air. I wonder how close I was? Hold on while I go find out.

Hey, according to my bathroom scale I was only off by about five pounds. Go me! Of course, this scale sucks, so it could be totally wrong *g* but whatever....

sure it isn't some sort of data harvesting thing?

Fairly sure, since I got it via one of the survey companies I'm signed up with.

You made up your weight out of thin air? Oooooh, the punny badness abounds...
