On 13th August 1992 the Club launched International Left-Handers Day, an annual event when left-handers everywhere can celebrate their sinistrality and increase public awareness of the advantages and disadvantages of being left-handed. This event is now celebrated worldwide, and in the U.K. alone there were over 20 regional events to mark the day in 2001...
Any fellow left-handers out there?

Did you see the Bizarro cartoon on Fark today? I snagged it for my blog. It really nailed the parallel between yesterday's religious objections to handedness and today's religious objections to homosexuality.
screwing in a screw... etc.
of course we lefties are the only ones in our right mine... har har
also, you can change your mouse to accomodate your special powers of leftyness
my poor husband had a heck of a time getting used to our kitchen, all set up for his lefty wife... heee hee (he uses out computer mouse with his left hand now HA HA HA)
as to being ambidextrous... most lefties are... we HAVE to be in most cases
well to all a HAPPY Left Handers DAY!!!
However, everything else I can do with my right hand. Probably because I had to adapt, as CatsVilliage said.
Whenever I see a left-handed actor in a movie, I cheer! Anyone else get excited by being a part of the southpaw community?
Which is statistically very unusual. I grew up with backwards scissors and cork screws. But I was the only one with good hand writing.
I'm also with everyone on the scissors, I can't cut worth a flip even with left-handed ones. As for spiral notebooks, I used to be able to find ones without the three holes punched and just use them backwards, then punch holes if I needed to.
And Steve, the desk thing was hard! I was lucky to be thin enough that I could usually just turn the desk sideways and site with desk part on my left side and my legs between the metal bars.
