My daughter was lamenting tonight that she can't whistle or snap her fingers well. Said while blowing a huge gum bubble. Which I can't do. Never could figure out how properly.

What can't you do?

vote, get a hotel room, buy cigarettes, alcohol, lottery tickets, get into 18+ concerts, buy things online though i do it anyways, buy more than one ticket for an R rated movie, move out, lick my nose.

i can however, lay on my stomach on the floor and make my body form an O. I touch my toes to my forehead and if i stretch far enough my toes can get to my nose.
