"If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24
It's been awhile, but I can compose the music for a song (verse, chorus, bridge), arrange the song, play and record/mix the all the parts (guitars, bass, drum machine, percussion) and the final result is a pop/rock song minus vocals.

Participated in the wonderful sport of Paragliding. Took my first flight in 1990 using a modified skydiving canopy with just a simple harness. Some odd 28 years later we have these magnificent wings with very comfortable streamline harness all designed for flying high and going cross country. My last flight was in 2018 at the age of 57.
Gawd I miss it !!!
Not me in this vid but it gives a sample.

Piss off my wife. Get a free haircut after trying to say “Good morning, how are you?” in Pashtu.

Feels like some kind of survival instinct.
Same. I don’t know how to explain it either. I think it’s from having to be an adult at a very young age. It’s either that or a damn 6th sense but I cannot explain it.
The other ability I have is the ability to change.
What am I doing? I'm talking to an empty telephone
