Well guys, im wondering what the one or two skills youd most like to learn are. And who knows maybe some people will teach others from their wealth of knowledge and we'll all be better for it.
I personally wish i was a more entertaining conversationalist, and id also like to learn to weld.
you?

hehe, well i figure i'd need a bunch of equipment and so on that i don't have access to right now. i'll probably see about taking some classes in it in the fall, or maybe not right away, but one day!
also i want to learn portuguese. but the brazilian kind. for that, i figure i'll move to sao paulo in a few years and stay with a friend for some time.

I also wish I could spin records like electrode does, I tried it, but I suck and it looks like so much fun.

I wish I had a huge attention span. I've noticed my ability to focus on one thing for a long period of time improved a lot after taking LSD but I could always improve. My attention span is actually pretty damn big compared to most people I know.
I'd like to be able to play the piano smoothly, while looking at sheet music, without looking at the keys. I'm still learning but I navigate the keys like a blind man (a blind man with no talent)
I play tennis well, fred. The key to tennis is practice, exercising and keeping the face of the racket at the right angle. IT'S ALL IN THE FOOT-WORK

Yeah I agree about that face of the raquet at the right angle thing. I've noticed many a time I go to hit the ball and it just has no chance from the beginning.

Well, I'm pretty good with a bow staff ...
I really like to learn the guitar, I tried teaching myself once, long story short, I have one sitting in a corner collecting dust.

I'd like to learn (more) of the guitar, I had a friend teaching me when I was away dorming in NH, but he got expelled halfway through the year so our lessons came to a stop...
and I'd also like to learn to produce some better beats, trance/ambient style. I can make some basic stuff, but I hear shit in my head and can't make it into sounds on the computer and it really bothers me. I use Fruity Loops.
