Do you have any special talents?

I'm the only one who can be me. Although ASBT is his confusion *may* think he's me right now......

I can tie a cherry stem in a knot in my mouth.
I can read a lot of dead languages.

mind control

(chews gum in silence while thinking)

I'm good at math and persuasion.

I think I'm a pretty good cook and baker. Maybe that's not special to others, but it is to me. I can also mirror write.

I am double jointed, and can turn my hands in such a way that the top of my hand caves in in the middle, and the fingers and thumb stand straight up.

I can bore people at twenty paces. My personality is my contraceptive.

yeah, that's special to me. I can just about heat things up.

yes

you can control your mind??

no, yours.

I can name all six Allman Brothers.

I'm glad to hear that someone besides my family appreciates someone with cooking and baking skills.

oh yeah?
lets see you make me get up and get a beer!

can you name the fifth beatle?

I changed my mind....

afraid i'll go drive somewhere?

*whispers*
no...not tea

too late!
ha!

*wrinkles her nose*
Ick! You don't want that....

I'm a good speller and proofreader and keyboard input is around 70 WPM.

I can hear minor differences in wavelength (sound pitch) that other people seem unable to distinguish, and can hear and imitate sounds from other languages that many people who share my native tongue have trouble with.
Also, something that we always did in my family, that I thought was kinda weird, but it seemed to work, is the same thing that I later found out is being practiced more widely under the name Reiki. I did it for a friend of mine, and she swears it helped her tendonitis. I can only do it once in a while though these days, unlike my teen years, when energy just seemed to be bursting from my seams.

Lastly, (and this is a funny one) I can do something with my tongue that only one in 2,000 people are reportedly able to do. I found that out at a Ripley's Believe It Or Not Museum. Too bad I'm already married, it would make a great pick-up line! LOL

I'm with you on the cooking and baking, and it's a splendid thing to love to do. And there are people in the world who appreciate it, believe it! We are the last bastion of defense against the onslaught of Home Meal Replacement as an accepted way of life. Eeech.

errr, I'm not a bad singer, I can draw okay, I have a knack of making interesting outfits out of normal clothes, I'm okay at acting, and very good at getting into trouble.

nope

No. I'm really not good at anything.

Sure you are! You have good social skills and killer taste in music.

I wouldn't say I have any special talents, I can do most things that a cosmotologist can do and I have not been to school for it. I just started to practice at about 13, so I learned by trial and error.
I inherited a pretty good singing voice from my Dad.
Um... I can ussually sneeze if I look at a bright light... But I don't think that is all that cool either.

What's a cosmotologist?

I can read peoples minds, I can tell what all of you are thinking!

I can also heat things up! And let me tell you, that is a talent.

I know what you're saying. I think families are still eating together at the table, but it's at McDonalds, Burger King, Wendies, etc. (and most of the time they use the drive-thru so they don't have to hassle with the kids inside the restaurant.)

Someone that does hair and/or nails.

Thanks

Thank you! I must agree with you on those two things, although I know a few teachers of mine who would argue about the desirablitity of my "social skills"!

There's this thing I do with my tongue...

However, I once told someone that I was not a food motivated person. They stopped talking to me.

I can whistle really loud with two fingers
I can turn a straw inside out with my teeth,& into the shape of a triangle.
I can sculpt names & shapes out of styrofoam,with s Ginsu knife.

WOW!!! I can't even read upside down,much less mirror write.Dang that's good!! & I've tasted some of your cakes,so I can attest to the fact that you CAN in fact bake!

Get out!!! **pushes you like Elaine does on Seinfeld**
Show me how you do that!

Okay name them.& try to includes the dead ones too.

My teachers always said I talked too much, if that's what you mean.
We just talk a lot because we have a lot to say.

Sure you do!!! You have a unique talent for making adorable looking babies like Noah.**pats you on the back & hands heyzeus1 a cigar**

I'm good also,at getting into trouble,I'm so good,that I don't even need any help from anyone,to do that....

It's easy. I've pretty much always been able to do it.

**Sprays whipped cream all over you!** Oops!

**Wipes some of it from your eyes so you can see.**

im really good in the sack

That makes me sad! I won't stop talking to you (though you may eventually beg me to).

It's a talent that's more common amongst left-handed people. Da Vinci wrote all his notes for his inventions using mirror-writing (he was a lefty). I think it has something to do with the fact that for a lefty, going right to left is easier than going left to right. I even wash dishes right to left.

7:40pm
My Leo brother is a lefty also.I don't meet too many lefties in my life.But when I do,I'm always amazed,because they say lefties are smarter than their right handed counter parts.(so they say)

I wonder??? Do all lefties mirror write?? No matter how much I tried it,I could never do it. I envy you......

Some can, some can't. My son is a lefty and he can't. I used to have a button that said "Only left-handed people are in their right minds."

No prob.

7:55
lol lol lol That's a good one! Say! Are you going to be watching the Super Bowl tomorrow? & if so who do you favor? My bet is on the Rams.How 'bout you??

I'm ashamed to say it, but I only watch the Superbowl to see the new and expensive commercials they trot out each year! I don't care who wins.

8;40
Yep!!They do have the BEST commercials during that time.I an hardly wait to see what they are this year.The funnier the better.

Oh well,I just thought,that you being an American & all,watched Super Bowl. If nothing else it gives me a good reason to pig out.

I'm a lefty and I can mirror write.

I've already got chips and soda for during the game and we're having BBQued spareribs (cooked in the oven) for dinner.

Not any that are important enough to state.

ok, ok...
we made a beautiful little angel


thank you!

moooo

Exactly!

Many!

being a wiz in the kitchen is a talent dont ever let anyone tell you its not. im lucky my wife has a natural nak for it. i get fat during the winter..lol being able to turn ingredients into a work of art really. its a wonderful thing. be very proud

Nothing special, no. I can probably do at least one thing that no one else can do, just like everyone else, so that isn't very special. Everyone has at least one thing they can do that no one else can do, so that isn't very special now is it? And if they DON'T the only thing special about their mediocrity is the fact that they can't do something "special" as it were. So really, that defeats the whole point of me answering. But I do, because I love to rant! :)

Thank you.

"Special" could be the wrong word because my two main talents are things I share with many living and dead people

1)I write both songs (in English) and stories (in Italian).
2)Man,I can SIING

I think everyone has talents. I don't know what mine is, but I'm sure I have one.

Hey! Joalis is the left handed one, I am right handed and I am smarter!!! Don't tell her I said that though.

me neither, I have this knack of digging myself a huge hole and failing to climb out! Fun isn't it?

I can compose music. I'm a poet. I can stick a popsicle entirely in my mouth. I can stick my whole fist in my mouth. I can stick an icecream cone in my mouth and suck the icecream out. I have a huge mouth. I can play violin. I can make myself cry. I'm dramatic. I taught myself how to play keyboard... I write novels, too. There is more, but I don't want to continue because you might think that I'm bragging.

mon. 7:50pm
Your secret is safe with me!
BTW how many sets of twins,run in your family? I have 5 sets in 3 generations.Also my sister-in-law is a twin,who miscarried twins.

I saw on Super Bowl that New Orleans is just jam packed with tourist.Geeze that city is making a killing!!

mon. 8:04pm
I'm so jealous!!! I've ALWAYS wished,that I could mirror write.I've only met maybe two other people,besides you & Kate that could do mirror write. Can you also read upside down too,like Kate?? That's another thing,that I wish I could do.

Say!! Did you receive Brians name yet?** scratches her head** Just wondering,cause it was mailed over a week ago.Not unless i got the wrong address.I had better e-mail you after this & see if I still have your correct snail mail addy.

mon. 8:06pm
Okay then,show me again how you did that,I didn't quite get the hand movement thing. Now THATS entertainment!!**has another swig of her Zima**

Mon 8:10pm
I bet you were wondering what happened to all those ribs you made,during halftime. Well,I'm not telling!!**licks her fingers**

Mon. 8:12pm
I trust,that your not getting into,too much trouble,without me? Are you?If you need ANY help at all,let me know.

mon.8:15pm
Got any recent pictures of your little angel?

mon. 8:18pm
Your not bragging! Tell us more! The ice cream cone thingy,is a little hard for me to imagine. Show me just how you do that,again.

No I didn't get it yet. I haven't checked the mail today, though. YES I can read upside down. I had a co-worker once who used to be a teacher, so he learned to write upside down, so he could help kids with their assignments, without them having to walk around the desk. I wish I could do that. It would come in handy in all sorts of jobs.

Actually I never made the ribs, so I have NO IDEA what you were licking off your fingers (and please don't tell me)! Quincy went with some of his friends to the Portland area. They went to the Harry and David outlet store and to Powells (the largest bookstore in Oregon). He called before he left to let me know he wouldn't be home until late Sunday evening (he got in about 9:30 pm), so I just opened a can of chili for dinner. No, I'm behaving myself, for the present time anyway!

+10 brunch skills

+1 withering stare

I see she told you she's the smarter one, I guess that makes her the dishonest one! Shhh don't tell her I said that.

Yeah! That would come in handy for reading what the boss was writing on a review.

Ewwww,Ewwwwww,What the heck WAS that anyways?? I thought it tasted funny.**spits & spits & spits**

Hummmm,I never pictured your sister as being dishonest.I'm gonna have to keep an eye on her,

STOP SPITTING ON ME!

Wow!! I didn't know I could cyber spit THAT far. Hey!! I'm gonna add that to my list of talents on the "talent survey"

You should see the inside of my computer screen!

lol lol lol

My bad! **whips out her trusty pink hankie & goes to town on your computer monitor**

actually,yes!

check your mail box this week. should be there either 2day or 2morrow!

mooo!

At least you didn't do what my grandmother alway did, spit on the hankie before using it to get a smudge off my face. I hated when she did that and vowed I would never do it to my own child and I never have.

There! I just did it again. Got it now?

Nothing like an old persons spit,to get just about ANYTHING off,a grandchilds face.Ewwww,Ewwww! But yeah,I know tha feeling.Cept my grandma,used to just put the spit on her thumb & then whip,the stuff off our faces.

It's gross either way! Never did it to my kid!

lol! Yeah I got it! Even took a picture of it,this time.

I'm adding it to my collection,of pics,of "The crazy things,that SC users do,to entertain themselves,when they have too much time on their hands!"

See Julie! **shows you the polaroid picture** Ohhhhh,you look so funny doing that.

Tues 11:32pm
