    Some will die in hot pursuit
    And fiery auto crashes
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    While sifting through my ashes
    Some will fall in love with life
    And drink it from a fountain
    That is pouring like an avalanche
    Coming down the mountain

    Why would you want to do that? But I'm a righty and I can flush without getting up. I'm amphibious, which means I can use both hands (even though I favor my right a little).[:D]

    no such thing as truly ambidextrous, you may use your left hand for some stuff but your right hand is always stronger and more proficient ambidextrous means equally good with each hand. left handed people are so much better at using their right hand then right handed people trying to use their left hand its kinda funny to watch sometimes

    I use both as well. I dislike how a left handed holster looks, so I carry right handed... Been doing it for years, seems silly, but it works.

    I shoot a long gun left handed, but a handgun right.

    I shoot, write, bat, & play golf lefty. Throw righty & can't bowl worth a crap as I can't decide which hand to use.

    My #2 child is an oxymoron according to my #1 child. [:D]

    From an early age she did everything left handed, or so we thought. That was until she started kindergarten. Bought her lefty scissors and she brought them home saying they were broken. Looked fine to me. Asked her to show me the problem and she picked them up with her right hand, attempted to cut and said "see, they don't work".

    As the years have gone by, this is what we have learned, shoots equally good lefty or righty. Just switches when one arm gets tired. Switches eyes when she switches hands. Writes, pitches, catches lefty, eats lefty with a fork, knife and spoon.

    She eats righty when using chopsticks and uses the scissors in her right hand. Thus, she is an oxymoron. [;)] She isn't ambidextrous because she can't use chopsticks or scissors with her left hand. She would put her eye out or someone else's if she tried. [:0]

    Experts say lefties die 9 years sooner then righties. I guess I should have been dead already.

    this was originally thought because until the last 50 years left handed people were forced to be right handed so they would suffer and it would impact their bodies adversely and because everyone was forced to be right handed its hard to say who was left handed so they had a significant ally smaller group then it should have been
