Cazador humildeHeading picture
What's with the picture that heads this category? They look like Pueblo Indians that reside in various pueblos north of Albuquerque, NM, but they both look right-handed to me.

low_techa quick glance shows they are both holding boomerangs in their left hand, that makes them Australian and left handed to me.
is it just me, or has traffic dropped off around here?

jtinidahoThis picture has bothered my for a while also. If they have boomerangs, that makes them Australian aborigenes. But they also have bows which accounding to my 5 minute extensive web search were never really utilized in Australia.
I present some suggestions for other header photos:

Mike O'How about a picture from Saving Private Ryan of the left handed sniper (played by Barry Pepper) reaching over to work the right hand bolt of his Springfield 1903?
