He was a good man

I will apologize before anyone reads this...

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 the age of 93.

The most traumatic part for his family, was getting him into his coffin.
They put his left leg in. And then the trouble started.

Shut up! You know its funny..

I would probably be okay when he put his left leg back out, but that "shakin' all about" would probably have me running for the back door.

It is funny, at least for we degenerates at Tripso.

Thanks.
