79 Tina Turner 2 Paul Newman Bit of trivia for you. Billy the Kid was right handed. For a long time he was thought to be a left-hander because a photo apparently showed him wearing his gun on the left. But someone noticed that the rifle he held was not correct - the photo was printed as a mirror image.  |
