Congratulations, Southpaws! Today is your day, given to you by the righties of the world, the one day when you can feel like you, too, belong! According to the Wikipedia on Left-Handedness, it has been associated with being clumsy, awkward, and generally evil since, um, forever! But just think – since 1976, August 13th has been your day to shine, thanks, in large part, to the efforts of The Left-Handers Club. So, go on! Demand your left-handed scissors, desks, guitars, and cameras! And know that you’re in good company among the likes of Barack Obama, Angelina Jolie, Jimi Hendrix and, of course, our favorite fictional “hometown hero“, Rocky Balboa. We salute you!
