    Oh, you are a riot - love it.

    Just make sure you don't forget you've made a bomb out of it and then put it back in a drawer...would cause for disaster. Probably would lose your feet too, and there would go your foot drinking talent.

    I actually had to sit back and think about this question. So I'm gonna go with what my wife tells (NAGS) me on a regular basis, cause she seems to be obsessed with the following abilities that I possess:

    1.) The varieties at which I swear in the English language
    2.) that nothing ever bothers me or stresses me out
    3.) that she saw me salute once and realized I was REALLY a "soldier"
    4.) that I never fall down (she is a bit on the accidental-prone side)
    5.) that I show no emotion. In her words "you are frozen inside" haha
    6.) that I can bbq and operate the gas-grill (because they have the potential to blow up?)
    7.) that food is the defining source of happiness in my life
    8.) the excessive amount of weapons I have in the closet
    9.) how irate I am behind the wheel of a vehicle
    10.) that I know more about her own country's (Japan) history, than she does

    #5 made me laugh so hard - I think that's a guy thing but maybe I'm wrong. Are these talents? I think a talent is like - farting with your hand in your armpit. Or literally being able to fart over a campfire, resulting in a huge gush of fire elevating from your back end.

    They gotta be talents, because she is so mesmerized by the above skillsets.

    I can make a triple-U shape with my tongue. And cross one eye at a time. And, if it counts, I have pretty decent pitch and like to sing. :)

    I'd like to see that elbow thing, Irish! :tongue:

    Erm, I can draw/paint well, but that's not terribly hidden.

    I can touch my nose with my tongue. I can lose my PJ pants while sleeping just about every time.

    Hang on, how can you have #2, #5 and #9? Isn't being irate in a vehicle both a stress thing as well as a showing of emotion? :tongue:

    May I join you for Karaoke? I guess it's not hidden because I have a degree in music, but I'm a decent singer. I also have a double-jointed toe...

    Whoa, I can do both of those too! I call it "oyester tounge" because I used to have my tounge pierced so it sorta looked like an oyester with a pearl.

    I can also raise my eye-brows one at a time (sorta like The Rock)

    Oh, double jointed toe? Awesomeness.

    I can also move one eye to the middle and not the other. I do it for people and they all say "ohhhhhhh" and laugh and then look away. I love grossing people out!!! :sick: :laugh:

    I can make my nose quiver....when I wear my glasses and do it, they shake really fast. It's fun...I'm so entertained by little things.


    We will have to make it karaoke MFP day on here - LOL

    I can dance while running (it really annoys my running group)
    I can make balloon animals, my boys have a constant supply of swords to fight with
    I have learned to fall gracefully because it happens so much...maybe I should stop dancing when I run :tongue:

    LOVE your before and afters in your profile picture!!

    So do you run like Phoebe from Friends? LOL...full cardio workout that way! HA! Awesome about the ballooon animals! That's a total hidden talent! My friend was a clown for Halloween last year and mastered making penis balloons. It probably won't get him as far as your amazing swords. :laugh:

    I can fix just about anything.
  • @xsargex: And most definitely a choleric temperament. Gen. Patton was a choleric/melancholic.

    Ladies, when I was young and thin like you, I could bend every which way and often did: thumb to wrist, feet tucked behind the knees [like an American Indian in the movies only both feet tucked down in] and then did backwards and forwards somersaults, foot behind my head. Now at 63, I have arthritis in my knees and wrists. :grumble:

    Oh, I totally forgot people could do that!!! THAT'S talent.

    Carl - wanna come over and take a look at our shed roof? Tornado blew it off in June and my husband STILL has not fixed it. LOL.

    Darcey1965 - my friend, Jenny, can do that (feet behind head) and she sings a song and spanks herself. It really is a show stopper and puts my "hands behind my back picking up a bottle of beer with my elbows" trick to shame. :ohwell:
