Default Do you have any secret hidden talents ?

Ha Ha I know what first went through your minds
I know you all to well
But as I was posting something on another thread I realized this could make an interesting thread.
So tell us
What secret hidden talent do you have ?

I can mix songs by beat, even did it at a NY club once.

But my real "claim to fame" is

I make balloon animals

My favorite is "parrot in a swing"
I have made some really wacky balloon hats

So what can you do ?
Come on, don't be shy



Karla

I can unerringly pick out the most expensive item, anywhere at anytime. Food, jewelry, houses, whatever. My husband does not particularly care for this talent.

I'm double jointed in one of my thumbs and it grosses everyone out when I start playing with it

Default I have the best

I can pick the line in any market, store, post office, shop, or whatever where there are multiple lines and spend the most time of anybody. I will unerring get behind the biggest duffui in the World.

If I pick a line with the least people, everyone will have the World's most complicated problem. Many hard of hearing and say Huh, so everything is repeated a thousand times. Women who never open the money bag until everything is totally packed up, most also say "What". Credit cards that will not scan.

If there is an ignoramus anywhere within a thousand miles, I will be directly behind him / her. Everybody will have a problem, a thousand dollar bill or something mismarked or not on sale. Dept xxx pick up line 7.

If there is the World's most unique problem that could only happen once every thousand light years, it will happen two people ahead of me. When I finally get up to the check out, the clerk will count the days money and then run off for two hours.

This is a truly secret hidden talent and I will never disclose it even under pain of death.

Plus I once converted three old Kirby vacuums in a fully operational AK-47. My next goal is to make it small enough to take when I go shopping.

I can blow a conch shell. Once entered the conch blowing contest at the Hollerin' Contest in Spivey's Corner, NC and two months later saw my performance while watching tv in Fla.

And I, too, have an eye for the most expensive items. Now if I just had a talent for making money!

Karla- balloon animals?! cool

sure! But we'll have to cut the end off.

Another talent that I have is ignoring all household responsibilities through twisted rationalization when I want to play on the C-D forum. It's WHAT time already?!
