Small Talk: Keep $%@^*@! that Chicken!

Maker's Mark will be involved, that's all I know for sure.

I took Friday off. I pretend it's for other reasons...but we know why.

As I understand it, few left-handed people (i.e. people who write with their left) are completely left-handed. My grandmother once bought me left-handed scissors and I had to remind her that I use my right hand for scissors. I also throw with my right but bat left. And so on.

 

 

As a lefty, I could easily have done everything "left."  But I specifically taught myself to use some things 'right' for ease, such as golf.  Must easier/cheaper to find right handed clubs, than left.  Same thing with playing the violin, I wanted to play it "left", but pretty much had to learn the "right" way.  I always love watching Paul McCartney play his bass guitar "left."

 

My parents sent me to a special penmanship class so I could learn to write without the hook and to limit the smudges as much as possible.  Handwriting issues, though, were probably the reason I took up typing and was one of the first people in my college classes to use a computer.

 

One interesting thing about lefties and computer use (so my office computer guy tells me).  Us lefties have a tendency to move the mai computer screen menu/tool bars to the upper left side or top of the screen.  He says most "righties" keep it to the right side or bottom.

As if my sadness about Jon leaving could not get any deeper: I keep thinking about what he'd do with the whole "Deez Nuts" candidacy.
