So...what are they? Draw? Photography? Sing? Write? I have read some blogs that crack me up, so I know we have some writers.
Mine is Photoshop. I don't know if ti qualifies as a "talent" per se. I can't draw to same my life. I am the last one picked for Pictionary. My stick figures need labels. But I am fairly adept at photo manipulation and love playing Photoshop Tennis.

    You are awesome! I'm one of your writer buddies. And from seeing your work here, when I finish my next novel I may have to see if you'd be interested in doing the cover! You are really talented!

    I changed them to direct links. I don't have properly sized ones and 3 weren't working at all.

    I'm a musician. I taught music in public school until I decided I hated teaching, but still love music. I sing and play several instruments, including the clarinet and piano. I've toured with different performing groups, including a month stay in Europe in college.

    This is an interesting forum post. It will be cool to see what other people say. :)

    That sounds like fun! What a great thing to be able to do. I love music and singing, but instruments aren't for me at all!

    I sing- been the frontman or frontWOman (if you will) for a couple bands sadly I'm not a hot commodity because I'm guitarded (can't play the guitar to save my life). So I took up hosting Karoake about 7 years ago. :o)

    I can hold a pint of beer in my cleavage and drink out of it, I can play a recorder though my nose and I can bite my own toenails. I can do the splits, and I can also fit my whole fist in my gob - maybe I should try this the next time I'm tempted by the crisps! :wink:

    I really can do these, but I'm also a bit of a writer. I do personalised poems for people for special ocassions.

    Couple of my talents :)

    Photography: http://www.patrickbowman.com/
    Photoshop: http://retoucher.patrickbowman.com/

    I don't have a lot on my retouching site right now just because I have tons of other work on my plate ATM. Lot's of my old retouching work got corrupted when a HD died on me before I made my website. I guess that is another talent as well... I wrote all the html and css on my site :)

    I'm a poet and writer, a painter, and the host of a community radio show in my town (actually, I host one show on Sundays and co-host another on Tuesdays).

    :smile: I'm one of those people that can hear a song and play it exactly with no sheet music. I play the violin, cello, bass, guitar & piano.

    Hmmm

    Talent? I can put my legs behind my head and walk on my hands. Does that count?

    I can also lick my nose and my elbow, even though it is supposed to be impossible to do that (the elbow not the nose)

    Wow...lots of amazing talent here!!! I actually am an Irish Step Dancer (think River Dance), and have won quite a few medals as an adult competitor. I am also a pretty decent Vegan cook/baker. I can remember birthdays...I can't remeber names, phone numbers...but tell me your birthday and I will remember it years later...weird, huh :embarassed: ?

    I can spit further than any girl I know. (gross right?)

    I've never had a cosmetology class but I was the girl who did 10 of my sorority sister's hair for formal.

    I'm awesome at make-up! I've even done 3 weddings.
