The Funny Pages - Tickle Me Elbow - The Original

[CarlaB]

ok but wait - - I only eat and write left-handed. Everything else is strong right - tennis, batting, etc. etc. and kick w/ right foot.......

Me, too. Though I prefer to eat right handed because I bump elbows if I eat left handed. But I eat just as easily with my left hand as my right.

With some practice, I could write right handed .... I will sign my name, or write something short with my right hand if I'm holding something in my left.

When I was a child, I was totally ambidextrous .... did not know my right from my left for years!

[curlyfries]

Yeah, I definitely made that connection!

[Green12]

Why do you think I'm called curlyfries?

I assumed you loved curly fries

Wow, lots of curly haired lefties, I thought we were the minority

I also just eat and write with my left hand, I do most everything else with my right hand.

[elye]

So I went outside, and sure enough-- Ezra is standing under the tree, pitiful look on his face, head stuck to the bird feeder.

Poor Ez! You've painted this picture so well, Sarah....I can see him so clearly....

Em, congrats on yer pap and your convoluted cervix. I have the same. (v. painful paps as quite hard to access )

This guy made the dreaded test pain-free, and speedy as hell.....quite a magic man. He should be given a key to the city, methinks.

And I didn't even pull out the sparkles!

Don't have any in the house, as my kids seem to have outgrown them, and all the crafty things they entail...I do still have some peel-and-stick Ottawa Senators tattoos, and I thought of putting one right where he'd be descending, as we have talked in the past about being loyal fans.

Next year.

Patti - gloss-black stool to go w/ yer chairs. Yes, since WHEN have we been painting our stools?

Whoa...black stools....hemmorroids?

Yep.....that'll be me! I have a totally dyslexic brain when it comes to right handed gadgets I didn't figure out until I was 18 why my shoes never stayed tied I was tying them 1/2 left handed and 1/2 right handed!

I'm a southpaw, as well...always had trouble with can openers....

I had a thought about the quicksand one, you know you don't hear so much about quicksand anymore. It used to be in a movie or two, and several tv shows...oh, it's the dreaded quicksand, however will they get out....... but no, not so much anymore.

It's true...where is all the quicksand? Where are all the travelling vacuum salesmen?

Hmmmmm.....could there be a relationship there?

I do remember a few classic things like the Puffy Shirt, or the Man Bra, the Soup Nazi......

The Abstinence Contest.....

The Abstinence Contest.....

...shrinkage...

I also just eat and write with my left hand, I do most everything else with my right hand.

???????????? who else? can't remember a single thing.................still in a haze.......phorgot to bid on this fantastic collection of supreme and exotic fragrance samples on ebay and it went for just over TWO STINKIN' DOLLARS

HARRUMPH

<great crisis in my ridiculous little life, as you can see >

[curlyfries]

I assumed you loved curly fries

Actually, I did.....once upon a time....but , coincidentally, I was given that nickname by a student where I work

[DingoGirl]

quicksand

:lol:

yeah, how come we don't see it so much any more?

shrinkage

[jerseyangel]

???????????? who else?

Alas, not moi

I have the curly hair, that's for sure--but I'm right handed. Do I gotta leave

[psawyer]

Alas, not moi

I have the curly hair, that's for sure--but I'm right handed. Do I gotta leave

No, stick around. Then there will be at least two of us righties here. I don't have curly hair.

This is not just a community of curly-haired, left-handed women.

[Darn210]

Alas, not moi

I have the curly hair, that's for sure--but I'm right handed. Do I gotta leave

If they give you the boot . . . I'm gettin' it as well . . . not even curly hair here . . . more wavey or sumptin' . . . well, I can eat with either hand!!!

[Jestgar]

Straight-haired righty. Don't worry, we'll outlive them

[elye]

' . . . well, I can eat with either hand!!!

Sigh.....me, too, unfortunately......

Straight-haired righty. Don't worry, we'll outlive them

Darn right...as we lefties struggle through the remainder of our lives battling with YOUR can openers, scissors, land phones.....

[Green12]

Patti, you don't have to leave It's so strange to have so many naturally curly heads that happen to be left handed in one place, tis a rarity for sure.....and poses Susie's question, "what does it all mean?"

It's true...where is all the quicksand? Where are all the travelling vacuum salesmen?

Hmmmmm.....could there be a relationship there?

Or the door to door encyclopedia salesmen? In fact, where did all the encyclopedias of the world go??

I think the quicksand has some splainin to do!

<great crisis in my ridiculous little life, as you can see >

Oh poo, sorry you missed out on the perfume Susie

Don't you just hate when a bargain like that passes you by?!?!

Darn right...as we lefties struggle through the remainder of our lives battling with YOUR can openers, scissors, land phones.....

[DingoGirl]

GOOD GAWD woman! Banish the thought!

No, stick around. Then there will be at least two of us righties here. I don't have curly hair.

This is not just a community of curly-haired, left-handed women.

indeed, 'tis not! Please note we have many four-legged creatures as well.

OMG - forgot sumfin' - - Stinker had her own account...... but gives me an idea.... hmmmmmmm...... <stroking chin>

If they give you the boot . . . I'm gettin' it as well . . . not even curly hair here . . . more wavey or sumptin' . . . well, I can eat with either hand!!!

OMG! a startling epiphany!

the ones who like mathS are the ones who are right-handed w/ the straight hair. All others, if I'm not mistaken, DO NOT like the mathS...........

We have not yet heard from Bev and Tom and Amanda on this.......who else am I missing?

[tom]

Righty here. Strongly Right-eyed even

......do y'all remember the episode when George abstained from sex and became smarter, Elaine participated and got increasingly dumber..........so - -she's standing in front of this - what in hell was it? - rotating helix-type shape - maybe in front of a tire store er sumfin'? and it's going round and round......and she's standing in front of it, her head going round and round, mimicking the motion of the thing-y, with a huge, dopey grin on her face.......and she's laughing like a simpleton and clapping her hands with glee...................

so that's what I was doing.

I remember it well .. ...George's girlfriend wanted to try celibacy. He ended up gettin' back in the game w/ a Portugese waitress.

I can picture Elaine in her long brown winter coat in front of the tire store, clapping black-gloved hands w/ that moronic glee.

Susie? Tri-tip? Good? Edible?

Why am I so blah again today? Yesterday seemed to be SO on the upswing.

Did I see Patti & Susie say they have curly hair??

[Jestgar]

I'm right handed and left eyed, and consequently dyslexic. Can only go places I've already been

[Ridgewalker]

Curly haired and right handed, here-- strongly-- right armed, right legged, and definitely right eared!

Both of my boys are right handed, but Brian started out as a leftie... he saw all the other five-year-olds writing with their right hands, though, and switched!

[Green12]

OMG! a startling epiphany!

the ones who like mathS are the ones who are right-handed w/ the straight hair. All others, if I'm not mistaken, DO NOT like the mathS...........

We have not yet heard from Bev and Tom and Amanda on this.......who else am I missing?

OMG, you might be on to something (like Rachel )

But wait, Emily is a lefty but has straight hair, right? AND she likes the math.....then there is Patti, curly headed and right handed, lots of mixed variables here and very unscientific

[DingoGirl]

I can picture Elaine in her long brown winter coat in front of the tire store, clapping black-gloved hands w/ that moronic glee.

MORONIC GLEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that pleased me......

yes, curly hair here. and I LOATHE it - - just want long, silky tresses.......

Tri tip was VERY good! So easy - put it on the grill, flip it once, and go get it when you remember it. Weezee had NEVER EVER been so interested in being outside at night - - I've never barbecued while living in this house (three years) and she was out of her dingo-addled mind........kept revisiting the area of the exquisite smell.......in and out and in and out, long after the meat was in the fridge, the look on her face a mix of joy, pleasure, loss and pain all at once.

Pthghaoeughaaaaaaaaaghmn - - <------- *snigger*

These bad days........ so heinous......I've had several in a row lately and feel sooooooooooo tired, so dull, so flat and worthless.........I don't know what's up (save for today) but I do clearly know I'm not being as careful w/ food as in the past. Taking more risks all the time.......not good.

[DingoGirl]

But wait, Emily is a lefty but has straight hair, right? AND she likes the math.....then there is Patti, curly headed and right handed, lots of mixed variables here and very unscientific

but wait - doesn't Em hate the mathS? She simply tricked us w/ her diabetic/blood sugar equations, is all.

but what about our founder, Richard? Is he left-handed and curly-haired? I must pm him with this urgent query.............

[jerseyangel]

Did I see Patti & Susie say they have curly hair??

Yes....mine has been "relaxed" for the past couple of years but I'm seriously thinking of stopping that and wearing it natural again. Too much wear and tear on the ol' mane Of course, this plan will entail a substantial haircut......what to do????

I'm right handed and left eyed, and consequently dyslexic. Can only go places I've already been

Curly haired and right handed, here-- strongly-- right armed, right legged, and definitely right eared!

My sista!

but I do clearly know I'm not being as careful w/ food as in the past. Taking more risks all the time.......not good.

Easy to do as we feel better

[elye]

But wait, Emily is a lefty but has straight hair, right? AND she likes the math.....then there is Patti, curly headed and right handed, lots of mixed variables here and very unscientific

I'm something of an anomoly, and I fit no pat formula - - HATE maths, poker-straight hair, southpaw.

How about Alex? Yes, we don't know about our founding King, either...

They gotta be weirdo lefties......

Ptaouehauomnhmn and Susie! Hope your yucky days disappear. That's it - - no more permitted!

[curlyfries]

It's so strange to have so many naturally curly heads that happen to be left handed in one place, tis a rarity for sure.....and poses Susie's question, "what does it all mean?"

Ummmm.......naturally?.......wellll......I have a confession.......

[curlyfries]

They gotta be weirdo lefties......

AHEM!....I think the term "creative" is more appropo(sp?)
