My friends and I are putting together this sort of "jackass" show and are goingto be putting it up on youtube soon enough. if anyone saw the Super Bowl you prolly saw the commercial with the tri-cycles racing downthe mountain... Well. We tried that, but without the road... justthe mountain. To make a longstory short I broke my wrist/hand. Ive broken alot of bones and shattered an elbow or two, and not said anything to anyone and its healed perfectly fine. This is down right aggony.So i told my parents andthey flipped out and i got a wrist cast and such. But the real problem is, the doctor said it would take months to heal up. Now,... it was my left wrist/hand. Im left handed.

Has anyone else had the same thing? because im goingto needto write for school and such. So ifso how did you learn to write with your other hand? Ive tried and its not easy. Maybe someone else has had better luck?

Thanks a TON guys!

Those are called Alphasmarts. Ask your teacher if the school has some, Nate.

you also get Danas which are cool, yeah also in UK if youve broken your wrist and can't write in a exam you get a scriber who writes for you.

lol, I heard that a school used Microsoft Sam in the middle of an exam as someone broke a thumb :P In Ireland by the way, yeah we're not the smartest.

I myself am trying to be ambidextrous. But as said above you can get a typing pad supplied by the school.
