This is pretty close to mine. I would add catching. Any type of catching. Frisbees, baseballs, something I've dropped before it hits the ground. I can catch anything.

:goodposting: Not more than an hour ago, I was walking to the coffee machine in the office, and I had one of those plastic stirrers in my mouth. It slipped out from between my teeth and I caught it with the top of my coffee cup (one of those travel mug things). Perfectly balanced across.

 
Load a dishwasher to perfection

Juggle a soccer ball as long as I want without needing to practice.

good one. I have cat like reflexes in these instances.

I should have been a hockey goalie after I learned to ice skate

 
BBQ

Bourbon

Cigars
wait just a minute... how "expert" are we talking in these things.. like do you have a diverse humidor of exotic cigars? expert in rolling your own? Do you have a diverse collection of rare bourbons? have a BBQ team?

Everyone likes BBQ, Bourbon and Cigars... I want to know how this is an expertise thing

 
Load a dishwasher to perfection
do you mean space maximization or loading it to manufacturer's recommendations to ensure a complete and thorough clean?

I wish I had this skill... Whatever the opposite of expertise trifecta is... my horrible trifecta includes packing a suitcase, loading a dishwasher... anything involving space usage.

I can do it all, baby. full. clean. perfect.

I was going to put packing a suitcase, box (euphemism), moving truck or storage space... but felt like they're basically the same thing.

:lol:

English Patient? Schindler's List? Animated? Mutilation Porn?
I think I posted once about flipping the channels and there was a commercial with Alyssa Milano about feeding starving kids in Africa. Those starving kids made it difficult, but hearing Alyssa's voice brought me back to my youth and I was remembering her as Samantha Micelli on "Who's on the Boss". I almost had to stop due to the combination of those starving kids and a quick thought of Tony Danza, but I was determined. The commercial ended and before I could finish I realized the channel I was on was showing "Radio" (Cuba Gooding plays a mentally handicapped team manager of a high school football team) and it just happened to be at the part when Radio (Cuba) finds out his mother died and he is hysterically crying and destroying his house as Ed Harris tries to console him. This was the ultimate test: first starving African kids, Tony Danza and now a sobbing Cuba Gooding being consoled by Ed Harris!!! I know in the Bible that God pushed Job to the limits, but this seemed more challenging. It took a while, but I finally came through (literally)

I'm not worried about the English Patient or Schindler's List. I've always felt "Cocoon" would be the biggest challenge because a shirtless Wilfred Brimley is masturbation kryptonite. Maybe I'll give it a shot this weekend.

Exotic no, diverse collettion of sticks, yes

I don't seem to amass a collection of Bourbons as I tend to drink them quickly, but I have consumed at least 30 different bourbons

I have a BBQ catering business
