He is a human computer. Not just a dime a dozen computer guy, he really understands computers and programming like a second language, and has since he was a little kid. He has been building computers since he was 7 and programming since he was 11.

He's also a certified genius. Of course, being so smart leaves a little to be desired in the social skills department at times, but it does set him apart! LOL.

He is an expert marksman. That is something he is proud of because when he started basic he "couldn't hit a barn with a baseball from point blank" according to his DS. LOL. When he graduated he was best in his unit.

He can turn ANYTHING into a pun. I kid you not... ANYTHING. :lmao

He has a memory like you wouldn't believe...anything and everything...at least one of us does. He is super smart with technology, and he also had record-high scores in boot and MOS training. :)

Well damn.... now I really have to think!! :thinkin

:lmao

He's awesome at working on cars. He worked on cars, rigs and large trucks before the Navy came along. :) He is just so mechanically and electronically inclined and I totally SUCK at that stuff! :hehe

He's also one of those "born leaders" and it's so natural for him, but he doesn't see it. THAT is the quality that is going to make him great in life!

It's cool to read those responses.. I'll have to reply so that I can subscribe to this thread :lol

Dh has this wierd ability to know exactly what is the right and proper reaction to any situation. He knows when to speak up, when to poke fun, and when to keep his mouth shut.

The cool part about it is that he can tell me when I need to stick a sock in it.. And the next day, it always turns out that he was right..

He also has a severe learning disability, he can't really write or spell.. He spells everything phonetically like the word "special" would be written by him as "speshal"... Legs=lags, sure=shere, states=stats, beautiful=budafal...

Yup, I'm budafal.. :teehee that's me....

It's almost like learning a second language when you read the things that he writes. But he graduated in the top 5% of his NCO class, he's absolutely brilliant when it comes to anything except spelling....

I was at an armory about a year ago, and overheard a newly returned soldier taking to his commander.. He was talking about a Russian tank on the base in Iraq that had been out of comission for 20 years.. They wanted to move it, but no one new how to fix a Russian tank..

He talked about a huge ox of a man who started working on it, and had it running by the end of the day... Then he said, "Look at the picture I took of him." I asked if I could see, and it was my husband.. :wub

Geez where to start with my wife. She has the uncanny ability of knowing what I am going to say and says it before I can. She is smart, even outclassed me in college which I can take some credit because I pushed her to do good. She is artistic and she never even knew that until we went to college together and got our graphic design degrees and she has such and eye for good print design whereas I am better at web design. She can fix a car side by side with me and diagnose the problems too. There are many more things but these stand out, of course other then the rated-x ones, lol.

Hes VERY smart, he scored way above percentile on his ASVABs, in the 95 range.

He can fix anything, including cars and house hold stuffs.

He has a theraputic way of speaking, he can make any situation seem possible even if its really bad.

He knows how to love me back, and im not the easiest woman to love. (L)

He's a great cook, he has an incredible memory, he's good with cars, and he can do a back flip, not sure if those are really talents though, and he has some impressive x-rated talents as well (lol)............

My husband is a "human calculator." Going grocery shopping is a "game" to him. He always likes to figure out what my total will be and is almost always w/in a couple dollars of it.

Needless to say, he'll be helping Ethan with math, and I'll be sticking to helping E with English. :D
