Choose the Left

I am left handed. No one knows why a person becomes such. The thing about being left handed is when you meet someone else that is a "lefty," you automatically have a special bond. It's like you belong in some secret club. Many lefties feel superior to those who use their right hand. I once had a substitute teacher tell me that "one day all of the lefties would take over the world."

Blake sent me a link to buy a "Choose the Left" ring. I thought it was pretty clever.

Can this skill be learned?

It's pretty much the same bond that people with outties share. I'll never forget my fellow outtians -- Mary Martin, Lily . . .

I used to pretend that I was left handed for I too believe that "lefties" will take over the world. Then my teacher made me do all my handwriting worksheets over and I thought that it just wasn't worth pretending. Being a lefty is way better then a righty...

You should know that the "Choose The Left" ring is actually a parody of the now traditional Mormon "Choose The Right" ring that has been handed out to good little Mormon kids for gernerations. The "CTL" ring is commonly worn by ex-communicated members, the kids that are rebeling, and the like. So now you can declare your individual prefrence to the use of your left hand, AND make a political\religous statement all at the same time!
