If you could wake up tomorrow having gained any skill, what would it be?
Immortality. Then I could survive anything but a sharp sword....
Knowing and preparing wild edibles.

Knowledge of wild edibles and medicinals, identification and use.
What gryffynklm said. A thorough knowledge. All of them.
I'd definitely say knowledge of plants and trees and there uses.

I want to wake up as a lawyer, then I could sue the pants off of anybody I wanted! :sneaky2::sneaky2::sneaky2:
Being able to understand and figure out women and their moods especially a certian part of each month.:blushing::confused1::huh:
Yup, that would be the one. Maybe then there would be a "free lunch".:)Quote:

I'd have to go with the edible and medicinal plants. What a valuable set of skills we've let slide.
Hmmm. There are so many that I'm working on, but honestly - most of the enjoyment I get from learning a new skill is the process, or journey if you will. While it would be cool to wake up one morning and ***Poof*** I can do something new - I think my appreciation of that skill would not be the same. But - I suppose that choosing one, I would have to say - being in the physical condition that I was in many years ago (I am working on it though).
Being able to hear would be a good skill, too. Just sayin'.
I didn't hear you Rick...what did you say!:innocent:
Oh, trust me. That's my line. It's been years since I've heard a bird's song.
I would really like to wake up with incredible strength, endurance, stamina, eyesight, hearing, etc.
That way, the knowledge I already have would serve me much better.
Good point on the appreciation lost. The reason I chose it is because of the enjoyment of the process.Quote:

I don't do bad for the mileage but the back and knees are going. Occupational hazard plus trying to keep up with the youngsters. I do what I want and am thankful I still can.
Alas, that is the current ultimate survival skill. To be the sneakiest, kanivingist, most backstabbingist SOB that ever walked the earth. And to be so without admitting it, while condemning others for doing the same, with compassion of course.Quote:
