It seems a lot of people can do an odd thing or two that not everyone else can. Whether it be something you had to learn or some ability you were born with?

I can make balloon animals. Actually, pretty much balloon anything - flowers, etc. I mentioned this in passing a couple of weeks ago to the people I've worked with for six years and they were all really shocked. I taught myself when I was 20 and trying to keep my mind busy during a bad break-up and I guess it's something not everyone knows how to do

I can drive just as easily with my left foot on the accelerator as my right, thanks in large part to a cross country drive by myself when I was 19. With no working cruise control on my '83 Seville I had no choice but to keep my foot on the gas pedal the whole time, and after about 11 hours, my right leg started to cramp and get painful, so I scooted a little bit and used my left with my right leg stretched out across my bench seat.

I don't know that it's necessarily a skill, but I can roll my tongue into a flower shape (like a four leaf clover). Photographic proof:

(My son thought I was crazy trying to take this picture with my webcam. It's hard to get a good shot of it without over thinking it and losing the roll.)

I can crack my nose pretty much at will. I'm sure many people can do this, but I don't know any of them.

I can put my legs behind my head without using my hands. Always been that way, it came in handy when I was younger and did gymnastics.

Plus, I have NO gag reflex. Whenever I need to get my throat swabbed at the doctor's office, they're always totally floored. LOL!

I can shake my eyes back and forth really fast (cooler than it sounds, haha), and I can move some of my toes independently of the others. Like, I can move my pinkey and big toes around and make it look like I'm giving the devil horns, like holding up your pinkey and index finger...maybe I'll just have to take a picture. Haha.

I can do that, too, lol.

I can also make my fingers look weird by locking the joints in place.

I can shake my eyes back and forth really fast too! Haha! I have no idea how I figured out that I could do that, and I'm sure it's not REALLY good for you, but hey. It really is cooler than it sounds. I'm waiting to just be having one of "those" moments with my boyfriend where you're just looking at one another, and I just start shaking my eyes. He doesn't know I can do it.

I can also do the "live long and prosper" on both hands without thinking about it.

I can do that too.

Man, it certainly would be nice if I had any useful talents.

I have no gag reflex either I had one when I was younger but I had a bad throat infection that I thought was part of the mono I had at the time so it went untreated for a while and I actually have nerve damage in my throat and the nerves in my uvula and other gag areas are basically just dead now. Makes deep throating even easier than it looks in porn, LOL
