If you're goofy and you have a young child, you start doing lots of voices. So yeah, I have a few.
Yup. I found myself doing Krusty the Clown the other day for my 11 year old niece. I have quite a bit that I can fall on at any given time, usually after a few beers...why just last night I started to do "Rochester" at a Mariners game just the "Yessir Mister Benny", and then I got really self conscious, I really meant nothing by it. But I got the look. We've gotten to dang PC.

I have the uncanny ability to call up a nearly perfect movie or TV quote for any circumstance under almost any amount of pressure, but my impressions are generally pretty weak.
exactly. ditto. but on my 45 min commute I often work on my christopher walken impersonation.....but it's pretty bad.

My dad works with impressions every day. Of course, that would be mouth impressions for dentures....

Are these original creations or voices based on whatever the kids are into these days (Barney, Elmo, Howdy Doody, Dora/Diego...)

Comes in handy in many situations. Plus, mimicking Christopher Walken kind of reminds me of William Shatner in that even if you lay it on too thick it's just as funny (or even funnier).

A good friend of mine does a fantastic Joe Cocker. Or is it Fred Sanford?
Either way, he's *goshdarn* spot on.
