Sounds like my tennis-playing days in high school and college. I can't remember ever winning a single match.

how creative and unique. My little brother actually read right to left...was dyslexic to the max. We could hold his writing up to the mirror and read it. In the 50s and 60s, dyslexia was under the radar. Mother spent countless hours after school re-wiring his brain....the struggle I think impacted his personality. Anyway, a clever read.
