    Ditto.

    I am pretty good at poker, but it requires that I only play good hands or I'm in great position to steal a pot. I don't intimidate anyone (which can work to my advantage when I've got the nuts).

    Freaking Phil Ivey scares the shit out of people.

      I can, but haven't done it in over a year. Maybe I'll try this afternoon.

      I always end up feeling like I strain my forearms when I do them. That is where a lot of your rotation comes from. You need 2 thing essentially, height and rotation. Height comes from the legs, jumping straight up. Rotation comes from core strength, bringing your legs up to meet your body and pulling it around with your arms.

        Yes. It just seems to me that, given the effort it takes to maintain cleanliness and comeliness, the Johnson could serve some purposes beyond sex, peepee and warming my kneecaps.

                I wish I could sing. Gidget has an incredible voice. I'd like to sing with her and not embarrass her just once.

                I pretty much kick ass everything else though.

                  Thanks to Boys' Life I accomplished all of those things before I was 14. It only cost me all the money I'd ever earned from my paper route.

                  P.S. Not a superpower, but I also built a HoverCraft powered by a simple vacuum motor!

                    I wish that I could draw well.
                    I also wish that I had a better memory. I used to think my memory was pretty good but over the last 10 years or so I feel like it has been getting worse.

                      I'd like to play guitar. I took lessons once and got started, but slacked off. I've since picked up an Ukulele, assuming that 4 strings must be easier than 6...

                      Like Surfah, I'd like to be able to sing. It would be really cool if I could both play and sing - just think of the possibilities...

                      I'd like to be good at some sort of artistic outlet. I'm not picky, it could be drawing, painting, even writing. But it would be nice to be good at one of them and have that ability of expressing myself artistically.

                        You should try painting. I've taken a few classes here and there and have found (a) it's incredibly relaxing and (b) it's amazing what you can create with a little bit of guidance.

                              I wish I had the skill of making money/business acumen. Yes, I've determined that it is a skill.

                                The whole early to bed early to rise thing. I am extremely nocturnal and NOT a morning person. I am insanely jealous of those who pop out of bed 6AM and have accomplished a ton by 9 or 10.
