Thank you for including us!

Thank you for coming Mark.   We really enjoyed having you and Dee.   After the weather warms up. the Blue Chilies should have some outdoor gigs at the local vineyards.

Maybe we can taste the grape juice.

Seems fitting as I am left handed and Tigger is impulsive.

We are the only ones in our right minds!

 

Tiggers are a wonderful thing!

 

Just be careful of the Jagulars out there!

I'm mostly ambidextrous.... which explains a LOT of my personalities 🤔 🙃 😅

It's funny that you say that. I throw, write, eat, and fire a handgun lefthanded, pretty much everything else I do from the right side, including shooting a rifle and kicking a ball. How does that work...?

I must be ambidextrous, too.  Because I can f*ck sh*t up using either hand.

Similar here. ..... but bassackwards. 

 

I fire handgun with my right trigger finger 👉 

Long gun off the left shoulder with left trigger finger 👈

Eating is variable. Utensils 🍴 are right. Hand foods either. 

Drink depends... home coffee,  left. Vehicle coffee, right. 

I fish right. 🐟 

Bat right. Throw right. 

Archery? Nope. That's clearly left. 

Kick right but my left leg has decent dexterity for usage in martial arts or climbing. 

Write right but left arm has always been stronger. 

Hand tools I 🔧 can use either but lean right. 

Power tools like a bit driver, both hands but slightly prefer right. 

 

I've been told I ain't right. Apparently I ain't left either.

That pretty much sums me up... 

[Ed Kennell 45,836]

I'm about 90% left handed and 100%right eye dominate which complicates my shooting skills.

Archery is left handed with right eye closed

scoped long gun is left handed with right eye closed.

iron sight hand guns are right handed with both eyes open      dominate right eye needed for the iron sights and stronger left hand to chamber the autos.

throwing is left handed

swinging is right handed

tools are left handed

eating is left handed in the USA and right handed in Europe

So I always check my OM before  starting to be sure I'm using the proper hand.

 

Oh, forgot writing,   It's left handed and it looks like I have both eyes closed.

I have a little Milwaukee M18 Hatchet as they call it.

It is full auto oil and works great.

 

I have the same little Milwaukee saw. I've used it many times...sometimes for trees larger than what it was designed for...and it works great.

I got lots of not-very-helpful feedback in early grades for “poor” cursive handwriting--right handed & both eyes open.

Tried writing left-handed and found I did pretty well but backwards, i.e. right to left; readable with a mirror. 

Finally I bucked the tide (with grudging support from my Mom) and went back to printing for everything by 5th grade.

We got the yard mowed. Gave me a chance to test the 36RD deck on the C160 and it did a fantastic job. Nice smooth finish to the yard…. Very nice… next time I will try the 42SD deck that I was given by a neighbor down the street. I hope it does as good!

Looks like several here are ambidextrous and I fit into that catagory.

 

I eat with my left (or right as needed) 

Write with my right.  (School teacher made sure that happened--to which my writing is awful thus I print most everything.) 

Was last to be chosen on sandlot baseball.  I throw left handed and only gloves available went on that hand.  Team leaders didn't like me to catch a ball, take off glove then throw. 

 Drive a nail with hammer in either hand

Took banjo lessons-only mediocre player -later decided I should have had left handed banjo. Now with dupuytren's contracture, the banjo just sits in the closet.  

I'd say 60% right and 40% left. 

 

I know one thing, I had a terrible time when someone said "turn right" or "turn left" for years.  I had to remind myself "I write with my right and eat with my left." 

I also wear watch on right hand.
