If you could have 3 attributes what would they be?

Question

I was watching the Matrix the other day, and when it got to the part where Neo was being programmed to learn how to fight and use weapons I wondered, "If I could program 3 attributes into my mind, what would they be." Now there are some stipulations to this question. First off, it can't be an impossible attribute, like to fly, or to see into the future, or anything like that. It has to be a legitimate thing that humans can do (like Jujitsu). Have fun, be creative.

Answer 1

1. I'd like to be able to pick up any instrument and master it quickly
2. wicked retaaded stamina in bed
3.photographic memory

Answer 2

I read a fun story by Roald Dahl called the increadable Henry Sugar about a gambler who heard about a guru that could teach you to see through objects. Imagining that he would be able to see through cards and win at card games, He finds the guru and persuades him to teach Henry how to see through cards. After years of rigorous training he finally can see through cards, but in the process of learning this 'trick' he became a more enlightened man who no longer was the shallow gambler that had started out to gain this abilility.
What I'm saying is that once you attain the super ability, like you might set out to study jujitsu in order to win a fight, you will probably find that you gained something deeper through the study that almost makes the abilty superfluous.

Answer 3

Whoa....

So what you're basically asking is, what 3 things we would want to learn that we currently don't know.

Well my field of work is in computer networking, so I would want to learn everything there is to know about it (book knowledge & practical experience) so that I could get a certification called a CCIE, which would easily get me an enjoyable 6-figure job.

Second I would want to learn a language called Sinhalese, which is spoken in Sri Lanka. That's where my wife is from, and it would be cool to visit Sri Lanka and communicate with people in Sinhalese. A sizeable number of people over there also speak English, but most still don't. I also wouldn't mind knowing Japanese. (I'm a big anime fan.)

Third, I would want to know everything--EVERYTHING--about molecular biology. My interest in this is threefold: I'm interested in evolution, genetic engineering, and life-extension pharmacology (including nootropics [smart drugs]). Molecular biology is an important component of all these fields.

Creative enough for ya? :-)
