i'm left handed and always hold the pole in my left hand. isd that right or left handed? all my right hand does it turn a crank. guess that's why i play bass guitar right handed since my right hand is just plucking strings and the left is doing all the work. of course eating is both handed! and being left handed has its advantages like we all die 7 years earlier than right handed people on average so we don't have to save up as much for retirement, so who has the last laugh now????
