Side note- I always thought it was funny that the Latin translation of "ambidextrous" was "both right-handed." Cause you know, the lefties are evil.

i don't know if i'd call them "evil" but there's definitely something sinister about them.

A good friend of mine had RC schooling. He was left handed, and the nuns forced him to write with his right hand. He is left handed now in everything but writing, I guess they caught him at the right age.

Mine's more naughty than sinister [slaps own left hand off thigh - "Good sir! You assume too much!]

Well the left hand used to be considered evil. Hence our jokes on sinister (Latin for "left" is sinistra, and gauche- french for left). I think it all harkens back to the days before toilet paper where you wiped yourself with the left hand. Nobody would want to shake that. But I could be wrong.
