Stuff

As Specter has noticed, I'm home. I would have posted sooner except that when I was going to post I discovered that jc had already posted about the trip so I decided to wait till I thought of something else to write about. I still don't have much to say but since I had a request to post I decided to go ahead.

One thing I am excited about is Philip. I think he might turn out to be left-handed! I am left-handed and I need a partner in crime! I am the only one in my immediate family that is left handed so I have high hopes for Phililp. Just for fun here are some statistics and trivia (I'm not sure if they are true though)

  • Did you know that only about 13% of people are left-handed? (I looked this statistic up and found two sites that had the same number)
  • Left-handers have an advantage in softball and baseball because we stand closer to first base (this I can say is true from experience).
  • Sinistrophobia is the fear of left-handedness.
  • During the 1600's, people thought left handers were witches and warlocks.
  • They say everyone was born right handed, and only the greatest overcome it (he,he,he). ...Brilliant Author unknown
  • August 13 is left-handers day
  • The left side of your brain controls the right side of your body, and the right side of your brain controls the left side of your body. So only left handed people are in their right mind!
I had fun reading these statistics and random trivia, hope you enjoy them to!

I wish someone would show me how to edit my page on that scale. <:-(

Well that's certainly interesting stuff about left-handed personas. Interesting. Hmm. Ok, well thanks for the post.
