Contrasting the last thread,

Math - anything to do with numbers and patterns
Sciences in general
Dancing - not like club dancing or anything, ballroom
Writing - I was told by my English prof and a few others that my writing has flow
Charismatic speaker - I've been told that I'm persuasive when I talk
Girls - not nessasarely picking them up at a bar, but I tend to make friends with alot of girls.

A fellow system designer came to my office today and said "I need your advice on something". This guy is extremely experienced and I usually go to him for advice, so I was pleasantly surprised when he brought a problem to me.

"I am sorry to bother you, but I know this is far more your specialty than mine. I know you are great at this so I am seeking your expertise."

He wanted me to pick his hockey pool players.

Other than that:
I kick ass at Starcraft.
Explaining stuff.
Pissing off Republicans.
Solving computer emergencies.
Making a stir-fry.
Finding Waldo.
I'm pretty good at hitting home runs.
I'm absolutely fantastic at hitting home runs when they count as outs. (stupid "rec league" rule).
Finding excuses not to mow the lawn.
Gauging the temperature of a room (both physically and psychologically)
