Witchaywoman: I can make all kinds of stuff like renaissance costumes and stained glass and candles. Nobody wants to buy stuff like that in this economy because people can hardly hold jobs or afford food. The last thing they need is a piece of glass art for the wall, or a spiffy wench costume. People always try to tell me I could get rich working for a tailor shop or altering wedding dresses. Not true because all those jobs are taken by people who do amazing work for damn little money. Then they say that I could get rich making prom dresses. Not a chance because no matter what I could make someone else is selling the same thing on Ebay for an impossibly cheap price and no postage. Or people think I could sell my art glass and kiln glass at a flea market or craft show. No way. Spend 100.00 on a booth, make 20 if lucky. The list goes on and on and on. It just keeps coming down to the economy.
i am still impressed. that takes artistic tallent that i could never do.
having been struck by lightening, i can feel static electricity quite well. i can heal very quickly. i can use dice like people used to "read the bones" i am ove 40 years old and can still breakdance... i can make any of my friends smile no matter how bad they feel. i can give detailed information about things i have never seen. i can figure out how machines work and repair them wthout looking at schematics. i can feel rain and thunder storms are coming, and a few more odd things too. yes i am a freak. you can call me a liar, freak, fraud, or whatever.

I'm skeptic about some things, but I do believe that some people has special abilities.
Did you feel these sensations (static electricity and storms) before you were struck by a lightning ?
Obstinance_Works: I don't know.. maybe it's a little bit of Rain Man :/
I actually know what you mean. But somehow it has been some years that I used that feature. But I was always near the minute and it did not matter if it was cloud cover or night time. I think that there is a internal clock you can access. I also know that I took myself offline when I started to constantly compute three or more time periods on a regular basis. It was after I spent a significant time interacting long distance and then returning to the actual place I was physically existent. Same with numbers, always certain numbers seem to always draw my attention and I see them in series. Same when shopping and I have already added up the amount unconsciously. It's raining here again as well. :]
i used to answer the phone with the persons name before the modern cells and all. When they asked I just said I had "Mental ID" that was long ago.....maybe these days I am simply "Mental"

Yes, I think it is some kind of internal clock, and I was always worryingly good at maths.
I happen to find the number 3 very interesting. Not just the rule of 3 in the rhythm of language, but in everything. I prioritise in 3's, I think in 3's, I act in 3's. If I'm failing at something, I will attempt it 3 times before rest, rethink, redo and this always seems to meet with the most success.

I am glad I did not say it but now you have caught my attention. 3 is one number that I see and it is always surrounded with other numbers that break down into 3 and 1 as a neutral as 1 times 3 is still 3. even my birthdate. LOL. I went into a church two weeks ago and the hymns were 181, 9 and 136. It was probably the most interesting thing that I saw or heard during that time....of course I enjoyed the singing part as well. LOL. 1 times 8 + 1. and the 9 divisible by 3 and the 1 times 3 + 6. But I don't know why I am always drawn to this thought process. Just aware of it.
Lamps on tall posts along streets turn out when I approach and when I put my hand near a radio to tune it in, it tunes in - which really botches my ability to tune it in for good because when I remove my hand from being near the radio it goes scratchy again.
My useful talents are grant writing and landscaping.

Well, I'm convinced that it's a sign of genius and not madness. Biased though I am.
