I could listen to Pat talk about stuffing all day <| sep |> Oh man my friends insist on the anchors . A couple years ago we had a small site and all our tents were crossing over each other ' s . I tripped over them every single time . <| sep |> This even happened when i played a ukulele . I dont think its my technique Sounds like technique to me . Are you squeezing the neck with your thumb ? That would cause unwanted strain in you wrist . If it ' s happening on a small instrument like a uke it ' s seems to me like you ' re holding your hand , wrist or arm the wrong way . <| sep |> Damn that ' s a lot of old GM ~~ iron ~~ plastic destroyed in one accident . <| sep |> I don ' t understand . Can you please explain what you mean ? <| sep |> It has my initials etched into it .
