Alas and alack, I have no real talents.
The real trouble with reality is that there's no background music.

I hate to be a differ beggar, TehBorken.....but you are amazingly talented. (and a carpenter to boot [img style="CURSOR: pointer" onclick=url(this.src); src="vny!://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/more/bigs/c032.gif" border=0])

In all honesty, I'm not sure I have any particular talents.  I'm involved in screenwriting and film/TV projects because I enjoy doing that, but not any great talent per se.  I'm not particularly brilliant or anything.  I wouldn't call having a knack for always learning things the hard way as a talent.  Weirdly, I feel empowered by my honesty -- no need to divert energy on bullshitting.

Writing - and patience.

Patience IS a talent, and a rare one.
Thousands of years ago cats were worshipped.  They have not forgotten.

I have it in such vast quantities that sometime - alas - it turns into apathy.

That's one of the nasty side effects of patience.  I just remembered another talent I have...empathy.  Occasionally overwhelmingly so.

And when it's overwhelming, it's neither a  pleasant NOR  good quality to have.

It certainly is, senora.

Empathy is a talent?  Interesting.  I guess it does take some intelligence to envision other people's point of view and be receptive to what they're feeling.  I'm constantly baffled by the lack of  empathy I witness in others; it almost seems like stupidity...except in the case of sociopaths who are aware of others' feelings and use it to manipulate them, but don't actually give a hoot about their well-being.  Many Republican leaders such as Karl Rove are sociopaths.

I suppose I'd really have to see a live demo before I could comment.  I'm pretty good at the unbuttoning-the-top thing, though.    

 

 LOL. That was funny. I actually peed a bit. [FONT color=#ff0000] [FONT size=1](OK, no peeing but you get the drift)[/FONT][/FONT]


 
Always end the name of your child with a vowel, so that when you yell the name will carry.
