Left or Right Handed?

Just curious if there may be a prevalence with weather enthusiasts using a particular side of the brain. One more stat to add to the pile, eh Tom? :D

I'm a total lefty. The only thing I use my right hand for is to click "SEND".

Hello Donna. Yes, indeed, another great stat for Storm2K. The more we have the better it will be. Thank you. :D

I voted for "bi" -- I am able to do most things with my right hand, however, I can eat (use a fork) with either my right or my left hand and feel the most comfortable playing solitaire with my left hand. [I just about always play using two decks]

I can do other things with my left as well as my right, can't think of them off the top of my head.

I am more a righty, than a lefty, but still like to consider myself ambidextrous.

My vote makes it a 3-way tie. I'm right handed. :)

Good topic!
I am such a southpaw that I even use my left hand for the mouse. Our administrator at work said that out of 100-some people, I'm the only one that does that. My poor kids are picking that up, even the right-handed ones. My wife is a lefty too, and out of 4 kids, 3 of them are right handed. What's up with that? I mean they all LOOK like me.

Hmm, since we are doing stats, we could really break it down:

Bats: left
Throws: left
Writes: left
Uses mouse: left
Plays card: left
eats: left

Righty here........I might even consider myself a *bi* though, can't write worth beans with my left but since my car accident that almost tore off my left hand 23 years ago, I had to go thru very extensive vocational rehab and I now have more strength in my left hand than right.

Right handed myself. Do everything practically right handed. Only lefty thing I do is read a magazine backwards! My lefty brother taught me to do that, at an early age. I thought that was the only way to flip thru a magazine! LOL Kids still laugh at me - Mom, why do you do that again? LOL

I am right handed, but am left footed.

If I kick a ball or take a step, it is with my with my left foot in front... go figure that one.

Way to go, cori!! I tried that once and just couldn't get the hang of it. This dog's too old to be learning new tricks. :31:

Hey Steph, were you one of those kids that was forced to use your right hand in class?

Right-handed here. I have tried to do some things left-handed (throw a ball, hit a baseball, play table tennis, write my name) but it just doesn't work.
