Title: In Memoriam....
Post by: GrayBeard on June 26, 2011, 11:23:05 pm

 
With all the sadness and trauma going on in the world at the moment, it is worth reflecting on the death of a very important person, which almost went unnoticed recently.   

Larry LaPrise, the man who wrote "The Hokey Pokey", died peacefully at age 93.   
The most traumatic part for his family was getting him into the coffin. 
They put his left leg in. 

And then the trouble started.

Troubling Thought...
What If...the Hokey Pokey is really what it is all about?!?!?!?

The most traumatic part for his family was getting him into the coffin.  
They put his left leg in.  

He put his left leg out,
They put his left leg in,
And then he shook it all about.
He did the Hokey Pokey
in the coffin he rolled around.
That's what it was all about.
