46. I have a bunch of useless, anachronistic skills....
Like putting the needle on a record in exactly the place I want it to be. Even the middle of a song. Oh, joy, so relevant for the digital age.

Also, I have Perfect Pitch. Ask me to sing a note and I'll nail it. Now, this doesn't mean I sing on tune, only that I'm the first one to recognize it when I don't. It used to mean everyone would give me their acoustic guitars to tune up when we were outside and no one brought a pitch pipe. And in choir, they'd get me to start any song a Capella before the instruments came in behind us.

Big Whoo. I'd trade it away for some real singing talent, of which I'm horribly lacking. And once again, with digital upon us, Perfect Pitch is Perfectly Superfluous.
