Interesting, Webster. I never knew Paul McCartney was not a true leftie nor that the great David Bowie was left handed.

Trivia on Nicole Kidman - She shares a birthday with the late musician Alan Longmuir, founder member of the Bay City Rollers who was also a leftie.

I have a left handed friend who plays guitar with his right as he finds it easier and I had a left handed aunt who used scissors and potato peelers with her right.

I am right handed in everything except sport. I throw balls with my left, shoot pistol with my left, throw darts with my left and wield tennis racquets with my left.
