I can't resist on more lefthanded story- out of Hitler jokes that were
part of WWII. Hitler and Goebbles were arguing. In Goebbles view
whatever esl you thought about Jews you had to admit they were clever.
Hitler would not agree. So Goebbles said let's try a test. He took
Hitler in several hardware stores and in each asked for left-handed been
steins. Each proprietor said he had none. Then they went into a store
owned by a Jew. When he was asked for left-handed beer steins, he
thought a minute, went into the back, turned the handles to the left and
brought out the beer steins. On the street Hitler said. "all right so
had left-handed beer steins. What does that prove?"
