After reading the question I posted about 'who would you want on the deserted island with you' I am prompted to move the commune that was going to be near Linkoping to a small deserted island, yet to be named. It has mountains that get some snow in winter time but the weather is very mild all year round. There are definite seasons though and all kinds of weather from fog and rain to snow to beautful sunshiney days. (Just a bit of background on our island.) It also has a wide variety of plants and animal life.
Everyone that moves to the island will share in the daily household chores: cleaning, cooking, gardening, and any other general upkeep issues. Everyone also gets their own room unless they want to share with someone else and of course family members are welcome. (Plus unlimited internet connection that no matter how many users are sharing it it never slows down.) There will be a tribal council to ensure that things run smoothly (and it won't be like the tv show "Survivor".)
If this sounds like a place you'd like to move to I'd like to know what special ability you'd like to contribute to the commune. I'll jump the gun on Lore here and say that she could paint and draw and provide the commune with beautiful artwork.
So drop a line here and tell us your special ability (and nothing X rated, not even R rated!). I'll try and think of what mine will be beyond spamming and creating lots of new spammy topics.

My special ability? Walking among the others to cheer them on and encourage the good work they are doing? I am not much of a 'Gardenperson', if I would do some cleaning someone just might have to do it all over again, because I am truly bad at it, I could cook now and then, but what it would taste like I do not know... so what is left? Encouragement to the others..   Very Happy

define: alcoholic = person who drinks alone.
well since i'm always available for a drink, i'll offer my services to keep that number equal to 0.

also i'm quite good at other things around/in the house.

My special power is the ability to caper and whee all night long.

And when I'm not surfing the  net, I'd also probably organize treks and expeditions into that mountain.

I could maintain the network. And when I'm not sleeping, eating, or at a PC I could also chop some wood or whatever, but there's a very limited chance for that.
Question: Will it be cold on that island? I heard that Sweden is a pretty cold place. Brrrr. However, some palinka or hot wine could solve that ...

I could probably give some good music (read metal) lessons Twisted Evil

Otherwise I guess I would be the "thinker" in the society, trying very eagerly to solve the problems of the universe and everythings existence and probably not come up with anything reasonable at all...

If we're talking REAL life here, on a deserted island, I would probably be the one getting into heated, almost hateful, argumentations all the time. My endless stubborness wouldn't help much either... Besides that, I'd be a very loveable person Wink

I could be the much (or hopefully) needed listener…
I cannot assure you I will remember what you say; my head often wanders about thinking thoughts without me really paying attention (something like that). And I have a great tendency of asking a question right after someone just told me the answer (did I mention the not always really paying attention part?) … Well, anyhow I am a really nice person, just a bit scatterbrained some times… but there is always need for a nice person fluttering about talking before once speak … isn’t it?

Gawd bless ye Zyraxes.

Hmm, I guess being an engineer I'd be the one designing the building for the brewery.  That or a nice concrete roadway to the outhouse.

Alright!
With the help of Zyraxes and Longstrider I can fulfill my capacity as the Professional Drinker!!
Every community needs at least one of those - someone to sample libations and quote Jimmy Buffet.

I'd probably bring with me few kilos of weed and watch you doing all the work while I smoke it .   Mr. Green
