Never heard of Liz Lawrence before? Neither did I. But check out this bouncy uke tune.

This is really good.  And she’s super cute, too.

Liz Lawrence on Tumblr, buy her music on bandcamp where you decide how much you pay. :)

“You don’t need a round tuit to get around to it”

Chance seized. Good work guys.

The World’s Largest Round Tuit*

Said to have originated at the 1964 World’s Fair in Queens, NY, The Round Tuit is a most useful tool in fighting procrastination and sloth. Every time you say you’ll do such-and-such when you get around to it, you can now reach for your Round Tuit and get it done! 

We made this hand carved Round Tuit in our Minnesota Outpost with the hope that it will be the World’s largest (pending Guinness World Record Committee approval.) Imagine that: a Tuit large enough to serve as an inspiration for everyone everywhere to get around to whatever it is they’ve been putting off! 

Specifications:
Material: Salvaged Red Oak 
Width: 33.375 inches (at the widest)
Thickness: 4.5 inches
Weight: 59.8 pounds

This is your round tuit. 
Actually, it’s everyone’s. 
Tuits are very hard to come by, especially round ones of this size.
It should prove to be a valuable and inspirational item.

For years you’ve heard people say, “I’ll do it when I get around to it.”
Well here it is. 
A Tuit for everyone, everywhere.
Think of all the things you can accomplish now.

The results will be remarkable!

*Pending Guinness World Record Committee approval
