ARE YOU LEFT-HANDED?

This post is a simple tribute to all my fellow left-handed Southpaws out there!  There are not a whole lot of us and we basically have had to live in a world meant for right-handed people.  If you ever wondered what the odds are of being left-handed are, it is interesting to note that if you have two parents that are right-handed, there is a 1 in 10 chance of having a left-handed child. ... And if both parents are left-handed, the child has a 4 in 10 chance of being left-handed.  There is a 9.5% chance of having a left-handed child...so being left-handed is definitely unique!

Another interesting statistic is that 6 out of the last 12 U.S. presidents have been left-handed.
