    Nah, I alternate.

    But I'm right handed, not ambidextrous.

    That could be. I'm probably right handed as I write with that hand. I throw left handed, golf right hand, use power tools with either without much difference, and can whack it with either. Father, Grand Father on Mothers side, and brother are all Left handed. My mother is right handed though my father thinks she was left hands but those darn Nuns converted her. My Wife is a righty, my daughter is totally left handed.

    Yeah, I golf and swing a bat as a righty as well. I think because I'm right legged, so I'm more comfortable with my right leg being the lead. I boxed as a lefty for that very reason. So I write, throw a baseball, eat, shoot pool, bowl, and shoot a gun as a lefty.

    I don't know about Winky, but I was aware that Oscar outside of boxing is a lefty. The same is true of Cotto, Tyson, and Frazier I believe. Most boxers with a great left hook are lefties outside of boxing.

    That's interesting. What do you know about Calzaghe's handedness outside of boxing?

    The fact that Pacquiao uses his right hand for anything, and his left is that good and that stong is insane.

    He's a lefty.

    He just writes right handed.

    Corrected by his parents, because writing and eating lefty was considered wrong, back in the day.

    I'm exactly like that too.

    You guys got me questioning my memory. There are left handed scissors.

    [FONT=arial, helvetica]
    http://www.thelefthand.com/scissors.html

    The natural tendency when a left-handed person uses a right-handed scissor is to force the blades apart. Left-handed scissors place the blades in the correct position.

    Left-handed Scissors allow you to actually see what you are cutting without stretching your neck over the opposite side of the blade on right handed scissors.
    Just hold the scissors and cut naturally!
