[Call Me Wesley]

Yes, Heidi's Ukulele came today.



Soon I will melt to the sweet sound of Ukulele music filling our home.

1. Heidi has posted her picture here...

The woman in your pic is not her...the hair color is not right. What exactly are you trying to pull here?







































:hide:

[Heidi]

5. Are you suggesting that I'm _NOT_ a natural, Hawaiian brunette?

[hippywife]

25. I lubs you just the way you are.

You're much more purdier and interesting that way.

[Call Me Wesley]

7. Her name's not Justine, either.

But this was the card that came with it, sweet Greetings from Miss Hawaii, congratulation on buying an Ukulele. See if you can buy something at your local car station and get a thank you note from Miss Hawaii!

:rofl:

[Heidi]

14. Not YET.

But when I attain world dominion as a master ukuleleist and run off with someone who appreciates my gift, I may change my name to Justine. Or Mitzi. :p

[charlie and algernon]

2. haha, awsome!

You best post a youtube video of her playing!

My Bowed Psaltery is also arriving today. Can't wait to get home so I can play it. :bounce:

[Call Me Wesley]

8. What a cool instrument!

Have fun with it. I always wanted a zither or a sitar.

We'll see about the youtube vid. ;)

[fizzgig]

3. my life had a constant ukulele soundtrack for awhile

it's not a bad thing to have :)

[Call Me Wesley]

10. No, it's not.

It's always better than this:

4. Lucky you! And Heidi!

:thumbsup: :hi:

Have you alerted Richardo? :D

[Heidi]

6. I have alerted _on_ that rascal a jillion times.

:rofl:

(Not really.)

[Bunny]

9. And yet he still won't quit, will he?

:rofl:

Congrats on the uke, if I ever make it to Yurp I'll accompany you on the banjo!

[Call Me Wesley]

11. He's still half-way blind from my

cool typewriter display video! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tx5dKMlFgsQ

:hi:

[Bunny]

12. OMG that's hysterical!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: What a display! :applause:

[Heidi]

13. Ask him who designed and commissioned that piece of museum-quality brlliance!

Go ahead. Ask him. :D

[Bunny]

15. It's a work of art, designed and commissioned by a genius!

:D

[Heidi]

16. True!

:rofl:

[Richardo]

17. Sweet! So it comes with a grass skirt, hibiscus, two leis and a lovely pair of ....

...pineapples?

I can't wait for your and Bunny's duet of "Foggy Mountain Breakdown" - or "Foggy Mauna Loa Breakdown" :bounce:


:hi:

[Heidi]

18. Maybe no leis

if he continues mocking my gift of (future) ukulele mastery.

[Richardo]

19. The proper motivation can be very persuasive.

I'm sure that after a sufficient interval he'd acknowledge your mastery in any area you care to name. :D

[MissHoneychurch]

20. Let's see if you can beat Stefan Raab

:D

21. He's self-thaught as well,

so all we need is Tom Jones and voilà!

22. Our banjo club has voted to trade our banjos for ukes and start a Ukulele Social Club

[Call Me Wesley]

23. Wow!

Are these for sale? I trade every banjo for these! *Belch!* ;)

[Brother Buzz]

24. Armstrong has some cool stuff for sale, you dig?

These ukes are designed and painted by Robert Armstrong. Al Dodge, another original 'Cheap Suit Serenader' made them.
