Trivial, but You Really Try!

@digitS' I can snap my right hand, but can't quite do the left just right to make the sound. Right - SNAP! Left - swiff.
How about the one eyebrow lift? I've been trying to learn this for quite some time. I can get one SLIGHTLY higher than the other... but it looks more like I'm trying to do a pirate's 'ARRrrrggg' with the whole side of my face squenched up. I wonder if that's a genetic thing like being able to roll my tongue.
I used to work with a lady who could whistle music. I have never been able to do more than a couple notes up or down.

My dad could wiggle his ears, which also made his scalp move.
I discovered I have that talent too. I'm waiting for it to come in handy.

ME TOO!

Use it anytime a child is staring at you... in a checkout line, at church, when you're both staring out windows in traffic...

i can whistle tunes and both while breathing out and in, but i've never really practiced it to be entertaining or such.

hmm, can snap my fingers on the left hand, but of course is not as practiced as the right hand.

curl tongue, check, both ways (licking the top of your own tongue)...

brain damage, check, dyslexias of various kinds, learning to play and read music, ugh! wish it were easy, but while i can eventually figure out some things on the guitar it takes forever so i've given up for now. some day i want to trade my existing guitar and other things here that i don't play and see if i can get a smaller acoustic/classical guitar that would fit my hands better. like maybe half scale or 3/4ish.

Getting the coffee pot set up the night before is not important, but I love myself in the morning when I have remembered to do it.

Every single night before bed coffee is made and timer on pot set.

@Rhodie Ranch I do the same, such panic sets I if they are not there!

Debbie,

How about pulling one eyebrow down. You may find that the other lifts in some sort of sympathetic response.

Same

Same. Hadn't thought of using it to pester youngsters.

see if i can get a smaller acoustic/classical guitar

How about a mandolin? I learned to play a banjo a long time ago. Have forgotten everything but remember that a friend had a mandolin. It seemed so easy by comparison.

Go to a thrift store to find a mandolin. My SonIL found a ucky grossly sticky one at the Goodwill in Vancouver. He bought it home and with some "Fantastic" and then Murphys Oil Soap, I cleaned it up and its now gorgeous and sounds lovely too!
