Yes, I am talking about the small ten percent of the population......i am in this elite group...it makes learning golf harder...in fact it makes everything harder! Even the simple act of opening a can is sometimes near impossible....

yes i admit it...I AM LEFT HANDED!

ALL YOU LEFT HANDERS!!! RISE UP!!! THERE'S A REASON ONLY 10% ARE LEFT HANDED! WE WILL RULE THE EARTH *evil laugh*

we will make left handed scissors, ONLY! a new corporation of left handed can-openers.....i can see it now!

so lefties, rise up against the norm...refuse to use 'normal' scissors....insist on a right hander operating the can opener...it was made for their hand anyway!

And don't forget most of the Muppets are left-handed. This is because most of the Muppet performers are right-handed and they use their primary hand to control the head and face of the Muppet. (Louise Gold is one of the few left-handed performers, and her Muppets are right handed.) This leaves the performer's left hand to control the Muppet's arms, thereby making most of the Muppets left-handed.

Yeah for left-handers! :smile:

Sarah, the number of bizarre things we have in common is building!!!!
I, too, am a member of that rare breed....LEFTIES!!!! It's fun, I'm a lefty raised by righties....(Well, my Dad's ambidextrous, but still predominantly right)....So, due to YEARS of being confused a/b which hand to use as a child, so I kinda have a hard time w/left or right...Which is fun when you're giving directions!!!!
Yeah...And I'm ALL FOR that ruling the world thing, too!!!!!!! :big_grin: Mwahahaha.....

Although I write with my right hand I puppeteer with my left hand. Which is good as I make notes on my script with my right hand while still having the puppet on. On Fraggle Rock I was the only one who puppeteered Left. This has made it so that most of my puppets where on the right side of the screen.

Puppets up please!!!!!

Well, I suppose now we know where Sarha gets her evil ways from.

I'm not left-handed, but I have started teaching myself how to puppeteer, and do other things, left-handed. I have another show I'm supposed to do for the library, and we're supposed to be doing a 3 Little Pigs theme. Well, I'm working on a script for a 3 Little Pigs movie (half an hour or so), and, I'm going to have 5 characters, but only 3 puppeteers. In most scenes, it'll be necessary for at least 4 characters t appear together, most fo the time, 2 of which will be mine. So, slowly, but surely, I'm progressing toward left-handed puppeteering so I can fill both roles without having to hire on another puppeteer.

Phew! What a mouth full!

I am left handed, but I scratch with the right.

Just wanted to add a little spice to the message.
