Yeah, I'm a bit surprised that I bowl left handed. But I guess that by the time I was taught to bowl, my parents realized I was left handed, whereas I was probably taught to throw much younger so I was taught right handed. Meanwhile, I play soccer left-footed, probably because no one had to teach me how to kick.

I favor my right, usually - I never considered myself ambidextrous, simply because I haven't exactly tried, but for some reason, I have almost always eaten left handed, I skate and snowboard with the left and I tend to favor it. I've never, ever, ever tried to write with it, and I imagine I'd be pretty horrible at it.

Like approximately 89% of the global population, I am indeed right-handed.

(And, I tried so hard to be a non-conformist, dammit!)

I'm bi-dextrous (It sounds better then ambidextrous).

I write left-handed and can do everything else with both left and right. Mainly, because you have to rely heavily on the use of your right hand in a friggin' right handed world. Manual can opener, anyone? Stick shift? Wire bound spiral digging into your wrist much?? BALLPOINT PEN INK SMEARS?!? YEAH, YOU HEARD ME. Bastards.

Useless trivia that you could care less about but so what because I'm still gonna post it: When I was a young'un, my Grandma tried to force me to become right handed. My Mom put a quick end to that!

I can think of only one thing I do left handed.

President Garfield was ambidextrous. He could write a text in Latin with one hand while simultaneously writing the same text in Greek with the other.
