I totally agree! I'm always moving in new directions, towards new obsessions, and learning all I can about them! But just to clarify, I don't now, nor will I ever, practice voodoo. My username is simply intended as a play on words for Deja Vu. Deja Voodoo just rolled off my tongue one day and I thought it sounded clever and exotic all at the same time. No offense to anyone here who's into voodoo...it's just not my thing!

As for my ukulele hunt, I've decided to put it on the back burner for a bit. I really don't have the money to drop on a new one and was going to splurge just to have something new to occupy my time, that and the one uke I do have is completely useless. Is there any reason why the strings would keep slipping out of tune? Perhaps they need to stretch more and settle in to the instrument? But it's not like that with guitars...
Hmmm....
Oh well. I'll keep my eyes peeled in the coming weeks. Maybe a uke will just fall into my lap unexpectedly. Who knows?
Thanks again!

Peace,
Peter
