Today is International Left-Handers Day

I am left handed and damn proud of it. :D :wave:

However I have had to learn the ways around a right handed world. My mouse is on the right side of my keyboard. I bat right. I sometimes eat right...:angry:

International Left-Handers Day is August 13th

On August 13, 1976, an organization called, LI, launched International Left-Handers Day, an annual event. This day was chosen because it was Friday the 13th and a way to poke fun at the superstitions that surrounded left-handed people for years. This event is now celebrated worldwide so left-handers everywhere can celebrate and increase public awareness of the advantages and disadvantages of being left-handed.
