...Left-handed people tend to be the odd man out in most situations. About 10 percent of the population is lefties, including the famous celebs listed here.

It does seem to be a combination of environment and genetics, however. It does tend to run in families, too. Lefties tend to be better in sports and have artistic talents. They also tend to have a temper and are more prone to psychosis. Source: EveryDayHealth.com

[Answer] 3. Sailors can be blamed for a lot of things including the creation of a lot of common phrases. If someone is "three sheets to the wind," what are they?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "3. Sailors can be blamed for a lot of things including the creation of a lot of common phrases. If someone is "three sheets to the wind," what are they?"



...1. Lost. 2. Breaking wind in bed. 3. Hanging around. 4. Very drunk. Just to keep the landlubbers on their toes, sailors often use words which aren't what they seem. You'd think a sheet was a sail wouldn't you? Well, it isn't. A sheet is usually a rope that is used to haul on a sail. On a square-rigged sailing ship, each of the three lower course sails has a sheet to haul it around. If the ends of the sheets are not fastened down, they will fly in the wind and the sails will be out of control. The more sheets left to fly, the more out of control the sail. There is actually a hierarchy of drunkenness - one sheet in the wind means a little bit drunk and three sheets in the wind means you are doing a David Hasselhoff. In days gone by, hanging round on a ship usually meant you'd been caught doing something naughty and were suffering punishment. (This often involved hanging around from the yardarm). Breaking wind in bed can be fun but it's hardly nautical in origin - real sailors sleep in hammocks. Breaking wind in bed is a part of a game known as "Dutch Ovens" in highbrow circles. I have another name for it but it won't get past the censors.

Although protection is probably the most obvious reason for this evolutionary trait, scientists believe there are probably other benefits, such as better insulating properties.
