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 last week.

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.

Shut up. You know it's funny.

My Mom used to tell me about my Great Uncle Bert and his "partner" Fred......
and how they used to do the Hokey-Pokey into the wee hours.........
