Who woulda thunk...

Huh. I learned something new just now.

The Latin word for left-handed is “sinister”. The reason “sinister” means what it does today is because hundreds of years ago left-handed people were considered evil.

Nice. Thanks a bunch people in the olden times. Appreciate it.

    I love random bits of info like that. I have a friends whose father would yell at her when she was little and used her left hand and would force the crayons into her right. He said he didn't want her to be backwards.

    My dad was born lefty but my gramma made him write with his right. Maybe that's why he messes with me so much. LOL But, there would be no blog if he hadn't so I guess I should thank my gramma.

As my daddy used to say, "Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one and they all stink". That being said, do your worst, or best, which ever. (I prefer best though)
