    I've been lucky in my life to have quite a few talents, if I can use that word. Basically, many things seem to come very easily to me for some reason. (guitar player, artist, archer, engineer, etc) That has been both my blessing and my curse. Since I can easily pick up on things like this, I've never had to work very hard to be as good as most others. One thing that I have learned over my many years is that someone with less initial talent who works harder than me usually winds up being better in the long run.

    Now, one thing that I have a talent for and work hard at, is connecting things. I'm a mechanic by trade, and I have always been able to quickly understand complex systems and find the problem or a solution. I guess I would consider my best talent as a creative thinker. I get a great sense of accomplishment when we have several engineers and other very smart people looking at an issue and I'm the first one with the right answer.

    But mostly, I'm a Jack of all trades specialist...:rolleyes:

    I've turned cussing into poetry. When others cuss it sounds stupid. When I do it the heavens open up and doves fly out of thin air.

    I'm not all that talented at anything, really. I do a few things well, but nothing extraordinary.

    I'm pretty good at shooting. When I went to small arms marksmanship instructor school I beat all of the instructors. Rifle and pistol.

    I can drink a lot of beer...

    I can drive...fast?
    :confused:

    Went to EVOC last year and did some pursuit driving...the instructor asked if I drive for a living, because in was able to keep up with the "pursued" vehicle without issues around sharp turns, dirt, etc.

    I ride a unicycle. Not much anymore, but I will get it out here and there if I'm feeling it.

    I let one "influenced" girl try to ride it and she face planted into a brick wall. She got up and acted like nothing happened, even though the bricks rubbed a little ugly off her face.
