let's see languages and hacking
languages because it's pretty handy to know other languages and plus it means I can go any where in the world and not know what to say
hacking just in case I ever forget any passwords

Hypnosis and manipulation. I saw a guy who could do it well- I mean actually do it. It was freakin' scary. Even Chuck Norris would run from this guy, I kid you not. Even the legend we have built him up to be pales in comparison to this power.
That's a good question. I'm going to have to think on this one a little while.
With my immediate goals in mind I came up with the following:
An intimate knowledge of digital painting techniques combining Corel Painter and CS4, in order to further my current portfolio so that I might have a greater chance of getting into the concept art industry.
Knowledge and technical skills at jazz and classical piano or electric violin. Two instruments I would love to be able to play, but lack the time to devote to learning. The fact that both of my groups of friends are musically oriented makes me feel left out on occasion.
The ability to work out probability quickly and accurately is something I've always found fascinating. I think numbers are interesting and I think an extensive knowledge of probability would at least help me kick ass at the small games of penny poker me and my buds play.
Other than that, I would love to have the skillset for base jumping and using a wingsuit in particular. It is a goal of mine to learn eventually. When I am, hopefully, a little more financially stable.
So there you have some of the skills I would want. But then again, these are all things I could learn if I put my mind to it, thus I feel I would be much more proud of these skills had I earned them through hard training. On the other hand, a skill I would not regret simply downloading rather than earning would be the ability to drive, since it is something I have neglected for the last 4 years, despite my legal abilities. It seems to be something that I am beginning to want even if in small inklings.

very simple. photographic memory with perfect muscular coordination. with those, I'd be able to do anything I saw anyone else do (including play an instrument or, if i could read a reference, speak a language), and improvise any fighting style on the fly, Bruce Lee style. toss in flawless observational skill (like Sherlock Holmes or The Mentalist) and I'd be unstoppable.
I wouldn't give anything to my current self, however I would save and download my current knowledge and memories to my five-year-old self, thus allowing me to correct any mistakes and alter my own life in a way I see fit.
"Wow I know Ju-Jitsu"
"Wow I Know Kung Fu !"
as for me i'd rather say being a chameleon, aka "master of disguise"

Parkour would be awesome fun. Downloading academic knowledge would make getting through school a hell of a lot easier (it'd be the responsible choice, if not a little cheap). One or the other I guess.

We're going to hell for abusing it.
Failing that, I'd like the skills of casanova.
Epic massive computer skills. I could make my own shit and build a company and live a happy life.
