What would you like to learn? I have tons of things I wish I knew how to do. I want to know how to fix cars, to speak Spanish, to play piano really well, learn more and more about the Bible, be an expert on American politics, to draw... TONS of stuff! I think it's good to have lots of goals like that for our lives.

What about all ya'll?

Same... <_<
And finally learning Japanese, rather than relying on my 10 or so known phrases to make me sound intelligent...

I would love to learn how to figure skate. I think all the jumps and spins look really neat. But I've only been ice skating once in my life, so it's probably too late now.

I could share your feelings (if I had to do any more math courses)

I'd like to learn what this so-called "social life" thing is that I hear other people refer too........it sounds really kinda interesting except they don't generally talk about computers at the same time, so I'm assuming it's something that would force me to spend even more time away from a computer screen...........maybe it's not that interesting after all.

Slightly more seriously, I'd like to learn how to mow lawns out in the blazing sun for eight to ten hours a day five days a week without burning to a crisp without the use of that junk called sun-screen (which I burn with anyway). Of course I know it's not likely to happen, but I can always hope that it will.

I'd like to learn auto mechanics a little bit better..........I know enough to fix most minor problems with my car, but I still have to take it to a mechanic for anyting major.........I'd like to be able to fix all (or most) of my problems with cars by myself.

Peace Out

Write with my toes

There's all kinds of things I could say! Knowing Spanish would be a huge help and so would knowing Korean.

I'll side with BC on the lock picking stuff. It has always fascinated me. Another thing I would like to learn is the Linux command line. That thing is so insanely powerful, yet so complex that I haven't braved the insanity. Learning another programming language or two would also be useful.

Sure, that'd be nice too.

Spanish and Korean would be more practical for me at the moment so that's why I named them first.
