Follow-up to lefty-righty question...

This question is a little different. It's a two-part question. First, what side do you get your headaches on, and second, do you consider yourself a left-brain person or a right-brain person or neither?
I clipped the following description of right vs. left from funderstanding.com:
Experimentation has shown that the two different sides, or hemispheres, of the brain are responsible for different manners of thinking. The following table illustrates the differences between left-brain and right-brain thinking:
Left Brain
Logical
Sequential
Rational
Analytical
Objective
Looks at parts
Right Brain
Random
Intuitive
Holistic
Synthesizing
Subjective
Looks at wholes
Most individuals have a distinct preference for one of these styles of thinking. Some, however, are more whole-brained and equally adept at both modes. In general, schools tend to favor left-brain modes of thinking, while downplaying the right-brain ones. Left-brain scholastic subjects focus on logical thinking, analysis, and accuracy. Right-brained subjects, on the other hand, focus on aesthetics, feeling, and creativity.
So, which side do you have pain on, and which category would you put yourself in? I'm curious if there is any correlation.

BTW, I'm CH-right, left brained.

Left side of head but I'm not sure of the relevance. I'm both right and left mean and cranky.
All that aside, I'm somewhat ambidextrous but left-oriented in most ways. Makes for sloppy tipyying typing.
Don't even think about it.

Right side CH, predominantly left brain, and somewhat ambidextrous.
I look left when recalling actual facts and right when creating/imagining a visual of something unknown.

Right side CH. (god... imagine the relief - relative of course - if they could go over to the left side for a little while? even ONCE.... please????)
Probably right brained except when I write or play music.
Fascinating line of inquiry. Does anyone know if research is being done to investigate this?

Actually, unless that was a joke, creativity like that is generally considered a right-brain function.
