August 13, 2007 will be the 31st Annual International Left-Handers Day. An organization called Lefthanders International first declared this holiday on Friday, August 13, 1976. They opened a business the same day that sold left-handed products for over 20 years before going out of business about ten years ago. They also published a magazine to clear up myths about left-handers to let them know that they're all right, er, left.
Left-Handers Day - How to Celebrate

Left-Handers Day - Did U Know?
# Left-handers are also called southpaws. Some people believe this term was originally a reference to left-handed pitchers in baseball.
# Some famous left-handed celebrities include Prince William, Demi Moore, Tom Cruise, Queen Elizabeth II, Adam Brody and Dakota Fanning!
# Coffee mugs with pictures and/or text are usually for a right-handed pick-up.
# The right hand is used for shaking hands, saluting, making the sign of the cross and swearing on the Bible.
# Almost 15 percent of the population are lefties. However, very few are completely left-handed. Many left-handers golf and bat right-handed. On the other hand, there are a lot of righties who can't do anything with their left hand.
