Hey, me, too! One rainy afternoon, my mom, with me and my two little brothers running out of entertainment, suggested we learn to write upside down. Then backwards. I can still write (or read) backwards or upside down or upside down AND backwards. Many people over the years have told me, "Oh, it's easy, just remember that if you hold out your thumb and index finger, the left hand makes an L!" However, since in kindergarten, I distinctly remember having trouble deciding which way the bottom of the L pointed, I doubt this would have helped me. :) I did eventually learn that if north was up on a map, west and east spelled "WE" . . . another Lynn, Lynn Carpenter in SW Michigan, USA alwen at i2k dot com To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace-chat [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
