Mine is cooking eggs. I have mastered the ability to fry eggs and they come out perfect each time. ________________ People hate you. Train like it. | ||

Making cocktails. Friends tell me I'm the best bartender they ever seen. "I’m not going to read Time Magazine, I’m not going to read Newsweek, I’m not going to read any of these magazines; I mean, because they have too much to lose by printing the truth"- Bob Dylan, 1965 | |||

Making crème caramels. (A custard dessert with a caramelized sugar sauce.) I find them easy to make and fun to serve. People believe they must be hard to make, but they’re a breeze and serving them is a little show. Just place a dessert plate over the top of the ramekin, invert and give a little shake. People “oooh!” And “ahhh!” as if there’s some magic to it. ___________________ Company, villainous company hath been the spoil of me. | |||

Reverse searing steak on my BGE. Friends tell me it's better than fancy steakhouses and can't believe it only has salt and pepper on it.

Scrambled eggs When kids come to visit, i am tapped for making breakfast eggs. (Wife also entices me to make them for her at other times too.) Life moves pretty fast.

Smashburgers on the griddle. Of course, it's probably because the damn kids want them ALL THE DAMN TIME. I'm also pretty good at making PowerPoints, apparently. ________________________________________ -- Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.

Baking biscuits, eggs, sausage gravy. A second skill I’ve been told is driving a bunch of ladies around to shops. I’m smooth but pretty quick, and as a bonus I parallel park with the running boards right at the curb “every time”, a bonus for arthritic knees and hips. The Expedition scared them at first, but soon won them over. ----------The weather is here I wish you were beautiful---------- | |||

Teaching/Instructing Super weird since i’ve always been more of an introvert, but once I swapped over to LE I ended up being “that guy” that ends up in front of a bunch of people talking about stuff. I suck at ducking out of sight of Admin…. Started with updating and then taking over teaching our court diversion traffic school. Then went on from there to the point that if it needs any kind of multi media presentation in front of more than 5 people… I get an email. Cool part is, I have grown to like it, it’s cool to work with large groups and once you get engagement, it’s awesome. Don’t tell admin. I got enough on my plate as is. Bill R | |||

I think I'm pretty decent at building and painting scale model jets. In the big scheme of things, it's not a particularly useful skill. I refer to it as "playing with little toy plastic airplanes". | |||
