We know that it's not the correct mechanic, but we still do it. Go figure?

I don't triple up on all travels, but when I do....

I never played a musical instrument but that I what I've learned to do and it produces a nice, confident tone.

Not familiar with that body part. Then again, I'm not a doctor. Neither do I play one one TV.
