I can tie a knot in a cherry stem with my tongue, got more than 1 free drink with that hidden talent...
Ooh, I forgot I can do that too!
I didn't think I had one. Been thinking on it all weekend. And then this morning driving kids to school - it happened again and I remembered. I can channel Michael Jackson songs. Put me in a car, turn on the radio and you WILL hear a MJ song before the ride is over. Every single day. And I listen to different stations. And if I think hard enough about the 80s: Boom: Don't You Forget About Me comes on. Our music director promises she'll play this as a recessional for me at my funeral. Just the music, not the words.
Ah, right. I always used to confuse those two, believe it or not.
I can quote lines from "Cool Hand Luke". IT is a pretty hidden talent. However, amazed someone with it recently.
What we've got here is... failure to communicate.
I can read a map like nobody's business. I have frequently navigated hubby around back ups from wrecks on the interstate, closed tunnels, etc. I have even done this at night, reading the map with a flashlight. Shaved 10 minutes off of our original ETA, too!
GPS apps do make this less needed, but aren't always trustworthy and useless if you don't have cell service.
He calls me his TPS. First name begins with a T.

Will you autograph my Rand McNally Road Atlas?

Do you have one of those flashlights that you wear on your head for your night adventures? Keeps the hands free you know.....
HA! That would have come in handy, but no, it was a small one that attaches to a key chain. I had about 20 miles warning.Do you have one of those flashlights that you wear on your head for your night adventures? Keeps the hands free you know.....

Do your hidden talents with navigating also include finding your way around tolls? I almost went broke going through NY/NJ/DE over the last few weeks.
I'll bet you did! I can do it, but it will take a while. Those side roads to avoid the toll usually take you around your arse to get to your armpit, which is why they can get away with charging so bleeping much!
I can say pretty much any word given to me backwards, super fast. Totally pointless but I'm great at it.
Wow. That is pretty decent for sure!
