CP and I recently had a deep conversation about scissors, and the fact that righties simply CANNOT appreciate the luxury of having a quality pair of scissors at hand.

Absolutely.

I'm proud of my heritage and culture. Apparently some would have us back in the woodshed being whipped until we give up our demonic ways.


GD: And I don't understand why it has to be. We have a pair of kitchen shears that work wonderfully with either hand. Why must paper scissors be handed (I must admit I've never cared enough to learn the engineering). Ah the memories of childhood and trying to use right-handed scissors upside down with my thumb painfully squeezed into the too-narrow finger hole.

Maybe, assuming Canadian TV covered Presidential signing ceremonies.

The Leader would approve.

Oh, they're available... for twenty bucks?

Oh, I know. I have a pair (better pair than that). A pair I cherish and treat with respect. It makes me ill the cavalier way wrongies will just leave their scissors lying around as if they were no more important than a simple paperclip. It's insulting.

ETA: you'll note that that page says "currently unavailable".

I agree....if you go back to my op on this subject I said I believed him to be a great speaker and was looking forward to that one aspect of an Obama Presidency; I was merely voicing my disappointment that perhaps he's not as great a speaker as I had originally thought---based on his flubbing the oath and his scores of "ums" during his first executive orders.

Look, I do hope Obama succeeds....when he's acting in our Nations best interests.

I also, will easily admit that I hope he fails.....when he's acting in his own or his parties best interests or just advancing an agenda that goes against my ideals.

I will point out Obama gaffes, mistakes etc when they occur.....not because it happened to Bush, although I will continue to offer up that excuse because the irony does amuse me since I believe Bush went thru a lot of unfair criticisms(my opinion, lets not debate that right now), but mainly because it's just plain FUN, I remember the Clinton years very fondly:D

I must point out that I hated Bush long before he even ran for president. His record as executioner, er, governor of Texas cinched that opinion for me.

Nothing prepared me for for his reign of terror as President though. But pre-inaugural disdain for W. is not without reason.

Similarly, it's legitimate if anyone wants to hate Obama for his record as Illinois senator. Go ahead. Knock yourself out. How many people did he kill?

Freakin' lefties...

Instead of special quality left-handed scissors why don't you just learn to use quality right-handed scissors like the rest of us. Stop trying to ruin my quality scissors by demanding not only "left-handed scissors" but quality left-handed scissors. Why should lefties get special treatment?
