Also, I could without hesitation or straining sing the Queen of the Night's aria from The Magic Flute in full soprano (albeit falsetto) until I was about 34-35 years old Now - I can do it if I am loaded and cajole my voice into it (or if I am in some other compromised position - although then it is usually a rendition of SWEEEEEEEEEET MYSTERY OF LIFE AT LAST I HAVE FOUND YOU a la Madeline Kahn ) and even then it does not sound that great - BUT in my youth . . . !!!!

No one can really see it unless I lean on them and kind of twitch them around, LOL. It's not a party trick I pull out often.

I am assuming the Madeline Kahn aria scenario has something to do with a different double joint, but I perhaps I should not assume....

Oh....another me too moment.

I am also missing teeth - two on top and two or four on the bottom! I was born without them as well.

You can't really tell on top - but my teeth are a bit spacey on the bottom - well the like bottome front ones have little spaces between them....crazy.

I was never told that it was unique though - but i was told that I wouldn't have to have my wisdom teeth removed because there'd be plenty of room for them - that turned out to be untrue as I got them removed last year....

ANyway...

I have a double jointed tongue. Seriously. I can roll it on it's side in either direction and I can do that thing where you roll up both sides so they meet. Yes, this ability has been a popular discovery with the opposite sex and that's all I'm gonna say about this particular physical oddity.

I also have a gap between my big toe and my second toe on both feet that you could park a truck between. I can pick things up with my feet too--that's comes in pretty handy, actually.

I can do all those things though i know some people can't...uh, and it's still cool, don't get me wrong....oh, and wait, i don't think a tongue that can do that is called double jointed. i mean, tongues don't have joints, do they? I mean, my tongue gets joints, but that's different, isn't it?

I'm a kettles' serial killer. Almost every day I put the water to boil for the tea and constantly forget about it, till the water dries out and ther kettle's inside becomes white. I tried everything: post-it, reminders, alarms, consulting, Dr. Phil ... nothing, I just can't help it . I even had to change hardware store, because they started to point to me the new models of kettles everytime they saw me.

I think I finally thought of something...I about the most impatient person i've ever met, or heard of...I thought my mom was, but i noticed a couple years ago, when we were at the river, some lame guy was talking to her about lame stuff, and she was nice and polite...

Me too, either one. I never could figure out what the big deal was on that, I just assumed everyone could do it when I was younger.

I can wiggle the ears also, as well as flare my nostrils on command.

I can spread my toes apart, but it's way easier on the right foot - I broke a toe on the left when I was 10 & it's never been the same

The overly obvious, I am really small about five feet! This ofent causes the usual questions of "What Junior HS do you go to, are you sure you can see an R Movie, would you like the childrens menue?

As for teeth lets just say I have one implant, one hallow tooth oh and my two wisomd teeth, one was fused one had no roots!

That's weird...but it's also weird that i'm 5'3" and i've never gotten that...I guess those 3 inches make a world (or about 5 grade levels) of difference!
