For one, I can't ... whistle. From the time I was a little kid, I tried, but could never get it right. I have huffed, puffed, and puckered ... but just haven't been able to master such a simple thing.
I also can't shuffle a deck of cards too well either. I fumble so much I might as well be wearing oven mitts.
How about you guys?
I can't snap my fingers.
Fix mechanical things. I usually make it worse so I don't bother usually.
Can't blow my nose...
Can't shuffle cards very well either...
Can't whistle...
I'm useless when it comes to carpentry and most mechanical things...
Keep my cool. :thumbup:

Speaking of that I used to have trouble but I can't describe at some point it clicked. I wish I could give a good idea of how to do but alas I'm poor at giving instructions.
Like a few others have said, I can't whistle. I can sort of make a high pitched sound, but it's not the same.
I can't, for the life of me, tell a good joke. When I try, either it's just not funny, or I end up offending somebody. I mean, I can repeat a joke (Why did the chicken cross the road...) but I can't make a joke on the spot after someone says something. For that, I'll always been known to my friends as a Socially Awkward Penguin. :lookingup:

I was recently in Hawaii, and for the very first time in my life I found I could float in water. That's because I am now fat enough to float. For most of my life I was to dense to be able to float. Now I can. Thank you beer!
I am incapable of instantly telling left from right. I don't know what it is, but if somebody asks me if something is to the left or right, I still have to put my hands in front of me and make the "L" with left hand. Some sort of mental block, but it's never clicked for me.
I have no capacity to do maths beyond the most basic of sums. I'm fascinated by the subject and in awe of those who are good at it, but without a calculator, I'm pretty much dead in the water.
My typing is really putrid. I took two semesters of typing in high school and that skill has just been deteriorating ever since.
Can't remember stuff. Couldn't remember the words radish or chives. Or the name of one of my uncles.

Funny. She never has trouble reaching orgasm with me. :buggedout: :buggedout: :buggedout:
I can't type with all 10 fingers. I took a typing class in high school (on an electric typewriter . . . hey, it was around 1981) and I could type very well by the end of the class (I got an "A")! Unfortunately, I rarely used my typing skills in the years that followed and I forgot how to type. Now, I type with 2 fingers (and I can type reasonably fast, thank you, but not nearly as fast as if I used all 10).

Someone is trying too hard, probably both of you. Ask her if she can make the solo flight, and if she can't, that's where she should start. Once she can, start with that, and work your way to flying the mission yourself. Keep in mind, you'll probably never be able to make the flight without help from her, women often just don't work that way. Also, work on passing the oral exam, and remember, it's all informal tests, so you can bring in whatever you need to help you pass.
Just a helpful tip from you're Uncle Greg.

Also, do you know 'the alphabet trick' ? It's actually pretty effective for her, and entertaining for you. I believe it can be used to embed subliminal messages into a woman's mind, but at this point, it's just a theory.

I don't either, for 2 reasons: gas is insanely expensive (as is auto insurance), and my job pays for all my public transportation (bus, train).
Loud or unruly kids bug me but so do their parents, who are likely talking to someone else or looking at clothes or something, and paying zero attention to their brood.
