How big is superjumbo?

In response to last week’s question, "How big is superjumbo?,"  my writing and sailing friend Rich concluded, "It's less than you want and more than you need."  My jeweler friend Bill  called out, "It depends if you have fries with it or not" to which my marketing colleague Stan quantified, "8,000 calories – minimum."

My temple friend Richard replied, "Not sure how big, but I’m absolutely certain that steroids and other PEDs were involved!  By the way, the late, great George Carlin had a great riff on the phrase “jumbo shrimp” He could not decide whether that referred to a large shrimp or a small jumbo."

My dad, who continues to be an inspiring leader, noted that "Super jumbo is the size of the man sitting next to you on an airplane."

My birthday bud Jon observed, "Superjumbo?  Chris Christie, plus Trump’s ego."

My transportation friend Joe quietly commented, "I won’t say - I don’t like to brag,"

My Utah friend Bruce lamented, "I'm not sure of measurements like super jumbo - I can't even figure out Common Core academic standards."

My dad's beach buddy Bob declared, "In South Carolina we call it a 787.  We know because we make them here in Charleston and they are bigger than hell."  Then my neighbor and professional pilot Al and my cycling friend Ted concurred, "Superjumbo? Go google some pictures of the Airbus A380!"
