Title: Re: Silly things you wish you could do Post by: SacDuc on May 11, 2008, 08:58:21 PM That Vulcan nerve pinch thing would come in handy. At the very least it would make lines a whole lot shorter. I would like that. That and being able to pee my name in the snow. And being able to pull taffy. And hold my breath for 5 minutes. And play the recorder. And make moonshine. And play mahjong. And spin straw into gold. And finally pull that damn sword out of that damn rock so that watery tart in the lake would crown me King of England. Damn, I've done nothing with my life. :'( Hold me.

Maybe not, but I wish I could be in front of whoever I want. Not pass them, just magically be in front of them. Maybe levitate over them, whatever. no yellow lines, no swerving, no cops.

Like fireworks too! maybe a bottle rocket punkin passer!!!!! Love buzz bombs. They've got it all - noise, action, movement, sparks EVERYWHERE!!! Would love to understand them!!!

Title: Re: Silly things you wish you could do Post by: powerhammer on May 14, 2008, 06:30:23 PM [cheeky] Hmmm..silly things I can do.. Silly things I wish I could do.. -run up a wall and flip i could teach you that if you got the nerves. The silly thing I'm thinking of doing: wearing a costume to work on every casual friday for the last two months of work before moving away for grad school. I'm thinking of being subtle at first, cowboy (in texas so doin that is not that bizarre). Then as time goes by take it up a notch or two, clown, fireman, super hero, fat sumo suit. Title: Re: Silly things you wish you could do Post by: lauramonster on May 15, 2008, 09:02:55 AM powerhammer - that's an excellent idea!!! Thanks for sharing.

Title: Re: Silly things you wish you could do Post by: raulduke on May 16, 2008, 07:54:18 PM I wish I could break dance. I wish do really good card tricks. I wish I could ride a motorcycle around inside one of those cage things you see at the circus. I wish I could tame lions...and midget clowns. I wish I could do gymnastics...or at least my daughters gymnastics instructor. While I am at it, I wish I could do the kindergarten teacher. I wish I could do freestyle bmx.
I could go on...but I won't. Your welcome. Title: Re: Silly things you wish you could do Post by: Kaveh on May 16, 2008, 08:32:09 PM +1 on the loud whistle here :-\
I can juggle 3 balls, not four... I would also like to do the running up to a wall and flipping thing, that's cool. I used to be able to back flip... The turning while doing a stoppie like Christian Pfeiffer does. While we're at it, all the cool moves that Christian Pfeiffer does [moto] Especially the using the bake brake to slide to a stop while simultaneously flicking the kickstand down and jumping off the bike all in one motion! All teh *$ groupies will be on my Jock fo sho! :-* edit---- found a video. The move I am talking about is what he does in the very beginning. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8WMTmjUDvLY&playnext=1&playnext_from=QL Title: Re: Silly things you wish you could do Post by: raulduke on May 16, 2008, 09:10:21 PM I can juggle 4 balls or 3 rings...and ride a unicycle...not at the same time

Stop my eyes from itching. Grow a Money tree that bloomed every month. All the leaves would be Fiftys and Hundreds. Own a spaceship. Have a little less agitation in life. |
