Fun fact: "sinister" comes from the Latin for "left hand". Lefties are evil.

    Similarly, "dexterous" comes from the Latin for right. So being ambidextrous literally means "having two right hands."

    I like to joke that I'm ambisinestral: two left hands.

    Yes, yes we are. You know what the ultimate evil is? Being a left handed Scorpio. I was left with no choice - being left handed and born on Halloween. I am what the gods and fates made me to be. (Insert Evil Laugh^tm^ here)

    Could still be worse. You could be a redhead.

    Thank god for that!

    My adopted sister, was a freckled face fiery redhead when she was a kid. But when she got into high school, she suddenly stopped being a redhead and announced to all and sundry that she would forthwith be Auburn. And Auburn she has been ever since. She still has the freckles though.
