Kind of interesting from Wikipedia

Of the seven most recent U.S. Presidents, four, including Barack Obama, have been left-handed, while a fifth is said to have been ambidextrous: Ronald Reagan, who was left-handed by birth,[28][29][30] became president after he defeated left-handed candidate George H. W. Bush in the Republican primary election. Four years earlier, Reagan had lost the Republican presidential primary to incumbent left-handed President Gerald Ford. George H. W. Bush succeeded Reagan and later ran for re-election against left-handers Bill Clinton[31] and Ross Perot.[30] Clinton's second term opponents included Perot, and Bob Dole who had become left-handed when his right arm was paralyzed in combat 50 years earlier. Obama defeated left-handed Senator John McCain in his race for the presidency.[32]

Jacob - you may be president some day.

I am ticked off today because in 45 minutes I have to go to the doctor, who's gonna grieve me about my weight and my many other imperfections.

Hi, Ms.Mookie!

Your daughter writes legibly. That's all there is to it. To try and make her switch now is just inviting negative side effects.

The teacher needs to be educated.

God bless.

Peace.

I am so mad!! Livid and disgusted might be more apt. All of last week I helped my kids do a fundraiser for their school. We had fun and they did very well in their sales, one sold 70.00 worth and the other 100.00. When my daughter turned in her envelope, someone helped themselves to a little bit of free money. 40.00 worth to be exact! Her teacher put the envelopes in the back of the room on a table and then later moved them to a bin where they remained all day. Someone had the audacity to steal money that goes to "their" benefit. These funds go to the P.T.O for various functions, bookmobile, Columbus zoo animal mobile etc. I am really trying not to be mad about it. I'm failing miserably. I couldn't even sleep last night, it just irks me so much...I woke up mad too. I hope whoever stole the money, knows what a rotten thing they did!!

I've been ticked off the whole day. Workday was busy. Haven't heard from my boyfriend until now. And still worry if I ever get the motorcycle license.

Either one of the DVD's that I just freaking bought Friday is scratched up so bad that I need to take it back to the store and get my money back. Or I need a new DVD player.

Ah yes, the old bend in the pipe trick has probably put more plumbers kids through college or rehab than any other.
Now one would think that a not so really big fish would be naturally predisposed to being flushed, tis not so say I.
Oh yes please, allow me to explain...
One of my brothers loved his fishes, and kept multiple fish tanks with many varieties of exotic species.
Just before this one yuletide time of year, he bought a fish he said was some kind of South American Freshwater Shark.
(but in reality, it was really a Channel Catfish...now he could call it whatever he wanted, but I know a Channel Catfish when I see one, as I've caught, cleaned, and ate many, but when a some sucker pays in the neighborhood of a hundred ducats for a fish, well, they's gonna keep callin' it something foreign & exotic, and this particular fish stick was no exception)
Anyway, said Catfishy lookin' "Shark", of suspect origin, kicked the water bucket as it were, and my brother found it floating on top of it's tank in the mourning, stiff as a plank (a deeelicious way to prepare many swimmylicious things by the way, I highly recommend Ceder or Hickory).
Well naturally, as befalls the fate of millions of fishes yearly, Goldfish I'm thinkin' being numero uno, whoooosh down the commode it goes, the ol' burial at sewer, and just a few hours the whole family was to arrive...timing is everything as the sayin ' goes!
Ahh but this is no Goldfish, this is a eight or nine inch Catfish (incognitoly disguised as a Spanish, or possibly Portuguese speaking, freshwater "Shark"...oh yeeeah, with whiskers..well, for the porpoise of that oh so clever disguise ya know), that has rigor mortised into the exact shape of a banana..well okay, as close as the shape of a banana a Catfishshark can become in death, but one must remember, it was a master of disguise in life, so.......
So now we have a 'nana shaped, not so fresh, do-it-yourself serving of sushi, and as Mr.James has pointed out, that plumbers friend, the home owners dreaded, da da da daaaa, S-Bend...Houston..uhhh, I mean Mrs. Paul's, we have a problem!
Yep, all the pipes flow overboard, water is coming up all the tub and shower drains, it's pouring through the ceiling in the basement...Mama, let us say for the sake of simplicity (and without all that damned cursing), is not a very happy camper..and she doesn't even camp out is what I'm sayin'!
My brother learned three valuable lessons that day (I mean after all, those are the most expensive in my experience), one is Mama knew some words we hadn't previoulsy realized she was hip to, two is obvious, if your gonna flush a not too big, but yet rather large(ish) fish down the toilet, after it has stiffened into something other than straight geometric shapes, one should break out the Bass-O-Matic, or at the very least a cleaver, and three, plumbers make some pretty sweeeet dough doin' emergency calls on cold Christmas mornings.

This story had me laughing so hard I was crying! You are a very very talented writer. super funny, thanks!

I ticked off because I have to fix my car now because I drove today and I crash into a threshold and the fender fall. So there's my next paychecks goes too. Wasn't very happy about it.

I am ticked off today because my husband saves all of his charm for his friends... and with me he is a real pr*ck and I can't do anything right anymore. I think I deserve better than that. He's not doing the 'in sickness and in health' part of the vows very well anymore, either, and it leaves me feeling very, VERY alone.
