I like to skateboard and eat hamburgers. I consider both talents, though I am much better at eating hamburgers.

The guy on the right looks like he's going to loose his tomato.
Unless he soon after carried out a recovery with aplomb I don't think he is talented at all.

The man is surely inexperienced in the art of the hamburger. Everyone knows that the hamburger should be greater than the sum of its parts. Clearly, his tomato had no place within the totality.

"We've thought of life by analogy with a journey, with pilgrimage which had a serious purpose at the end, and the THING was to get to that end; success, or whatever it is, or maybe heaven after you're dead. But, we missed the point the whole way along; It was a musical thing and you were supposed to sing, or dance, while the music was being played.

I can operate a motor vehicle safely while technically still asleep. As evidenced by my 20km morning comute.

Beyond that I speak four languages, play a tasty variety of percussion instruments and kick ass.

I wouldn't be so sure... one of them told me that you can't pull the wool over his eyes.  ;)
