Death of Larry La PRISE

[BlueCat]

What with all the sadness....

.... and trauma going on in the world at the moment, it is worth
reflecting on the almost unnoticed death last week of a very
important person.

Larry La Prise, the man who wrote "The Hokey Pokey", died peacefully
at home. He was 93.

Sadly,the most traumatic part for his family was getting him into the
coffin.

They put his left leg in...

and thats when the trouble began.

Yes I know....it just makes me laugh to read that and I needed to laugh thought someone else might too

[slipknotpsycho]

i'm sorry, but i fail to see the humor in laughing at someone's death..... i have nothing against you personally, but i wouldn't even laugh at adolf's death.... maybe it was the way i was raised?

Oh silly no one is laughing at his death. I am laughing at the song. Do you know the Hokey Pokey song? Trust me Mr. La Prise is laughing too. I can't think of a better way to honor him than with laughter.

[slipknotpsycho]

of course i know what the hokey pokey is...... but, there's just no way i could laugh, or express humor at anyone's death, no matter how it may be. i'm not saying you're bad person or anything of the like, i was just stating my personal stance on the situation....

I don't see death as a horrible thing that should not be respectfully joked about AND my dad worked in a morgue so to me it was funny. Maybe you have not reached that stage in your life so I am really sorry you were offended slipknot.

PEACE
