That was the first site I found! I actually sent him an email thanking him for all the work he’s done (the mp3s were absolutely invaluable for learning how to strum).

He sent me a very pleasant email in return wishing me luck.

Thought of this thread the other day when the wife and I stumbled upon a “Ukulele Lovers’ Party” sponsored at a popular shopping area. Stage performances, stalls selling all things ukulele.

Then you’re doing it wrong. Only cute girls are allowed to play ukuleles. [cite](http://www.cracked.com/blog/3-kinds-people-internet-accidentally-invented_p2/)

How better to woo one of those cute girls than by learning the ukulele?

I have a very clear end game in mind here.
