Well, with all the talk of mechanics and caskets, I could not resist
posting this snippet from the Hartford Current:

What 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 La Prise, the man who wrote " The Hokey Pokey" died
peacefully at the age of 92.

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

Mr. Potato Head and Mr. Ducky Two Steps were horrifried.
