Always amazed at what you guys get up to in the late hours of the night and the early hours of the morn.

Re: Thread of Eternal Questions

Why does a Scuba diver always fall backwards out of a boat?
Because if he fell forwards he would fall flat on his face in the bottom of the boat.
OK I,ll get my coat.

Traditionally, many people who rode horses also carried weapons and tools, since horses were used as working animals. Swords tended to be worn on the left side, as did other weapons, so people mounted their horses from the left to ensure that their swords did not bang into the horse while they were mounting. This was especially critical in the days before stirrups, when the rider had to basically vault into the saddle. If people mounted on the off side, their swords would have dragged across the back of the horse while the left leg was being swung into place, upsetting the horse and potentially causing it to bolt.
