Death of a songwriter

[Clothahump]

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 the coffin. They put his left leg in. And then the trouble started.

Oh, shut up. You know it’s funny.

That’s what it’s all about.

It was funnier in the original Proto-Indo-European. :rolleyes:

I’m sure I saw something on the news about his death… a few years back.

Larry LaPrise died in 1996. Sadly, this joke hasn’t.
