    LOL!!! Great thread. I kick, shoot guns(or did), shoot bow left handed. I write and throw right handed. I always told my Ma she must have dropped me on my head when I was an infant.

      I'm in that camp...

              You can only not be a Naturalized Citizen. If either parent was a US Citizen prior to your birth you can still run for office.

                I've been to 18 countries other than the US but only the US in North America. Never been to Canada or Mexico.

                  1. I'm nearly an idiot savant with games like trivial pursuit or cranium, but can't find my wallet, keys, phone, etc. on a daily basis.

                  2. My legs are practically the same length.
                  Extremism is so easy. You've got your position, and that's it. It doesn't take much thought. And when you go far enough to the right you meet the same idiots coming around from the left.

                    I've never smoked a cigarette and didn't have alcohol until after I was 21.

                      I've never been drunk and the only beer I've had was when my dad used to give me a drink as a very small child. He said it was good for the kidneys. No drugs of any kind although I am highly intrigued by hippies for some reason. Love the '70s culture and if I ever stumble upon a time machine I'm going to stay in 1973.

                      I do hit Diet Mt. Dew on the reg.

                        Same with me and the no drug thing. Never tried any, don't get the appeal.

                          I smoked pot once when I was 21. As for beer, I've never had more than a sip of one. Bourbon is a different story, however.

                            Regarding the drug situation, and this is a topic for a different day, but I've been questioned about that recently. I'm trying to become a police officer and I've had a number of interviews, polygraphs, and more interviews. When asked about my drug history I give my response of one experience smoking pot and that's it and they look at me like I'm a liar. Apparently it's more uncommon than I thought to not break the law.

                              Years ago I had a similar experience. Marine recruiter really pressed me on that issue. Like he couldn't believe the possibility that I never tried pot.

                                I took a puff or two on a cigar while on a Beta Club way back when. But that's it for me and smoking. I have also only drank maybe a half a can of beer and taken a couple of sips of a Long Island Ice Tea. That's it for me as far as drinking too. Neither of those things ever appealed to me at all. Probably because neither of my parents did and was just never around it very much.
