Thought of another one! I can make a whistle w/a piece of grass! What you do is you wait until the grass is good and long. Someone wants you to cut the grass you say oh no, uh uh...we'll be whistling before too long here. So...once the grass has attained a certain longish length, you snap a good long blade of grass and you sandwich it between the sides of your thumbs. Okay? Almost like you're praying, but not. You want your palms facing out and what you do is you bring your thumbs back to your lips and blow. Got it? Makes a shrill whistle. Plus you got all that grass to work with...call up that grass notzee and tell them to come on over, you're ready for them now.

I can recite all the U.S. presidents in a row. Since this would probably put you to sleep, it's also a cure for insomnia. So, really, my talent is twofold. :laugh:

My son can do that, too, and he's actually read up enough on them where he can give you evaluations. "How about Rutherford Hayes?" "Oh, I don't like him because...."

He can also tell you the teams and final scores of every Super Bowl, as well as give you a rundown on a given game.

If he ever starts using his powers for evil, we're all in a world of hurt.

I can sit on the floor with my legs out and knees facing each other and bring my toes to an inside point.

I think Grandpa wins, thou.

This all should be an event at the next Kon.

(that will make the locals run)
Wow! That sounds painful!

I think that's a wonderful idea, n_n! Everybody should plan on demonstrating their talent at the Kon. That would be so great!
